Building The Cathedral Music at unsignedbandweb.com Building The Cathedral For most of my life I have lived in an area dedicated to heavy industry of one kind or another, mines, steel mills, wire factory’s and the trains on which I used to work. So the sound of metal screaming crashing, banging, sometimes being destroyed sometimes being turned into something new. The heavy engines’ moving coal and people around was a major part of my life. Then a day came when I heard for what seemed like first time the beauty of all this sound. For a while it sounded like I was in some vast cathedral, which was constantly under construction.

I decide to capture some of what I heard that day in these musical constructions, by using loops, synthesizes and samples all controlled by a guitar synth, interspersed in heavily distorted electric guitar

Why loops, well because engines move in circles it seemed to be natural for the project but I added some spice to this by arranging the loops not to trigger on a known metre and this added an element of surprise (well surprise to me) to the tracks and took them into strange directions.

I have always been better at expressing myself on the guitar than keyboard and to find how far midi guitars have come since I last looked to get one came as a complete surprise. With the ability to attach the guitar to a computer opens up a whole world of possibilities in music creation.

Well The second CD is out
Beautiful long evolving guitar synth loops and samples with sci-fi flavour this time.
This, the second project CD extends my work in the area of loops and sample but this time I have created huge developing sounds to live in my cathedral environment.

Oh and if anyone’s wondering,

I'm an alien

I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in Finland!

I live about 70km north of Lahti and have come to accept –20 deg c. as a civilised temperature.
