My new song visited is a reflection of my interest in history and ancient civilizations. Most people have heard of atlantis and today is regarded as a myth, there are many theories that say it was a very advanced civilization and was destroyed mysteriously about 11,000 years ago. After this three advanced cultures appeared, sumer, known as the “cradle of civilization”, egypt and the indus valley. The sumerians were the first known people to study the stars and develop the written word.

Sorry I have not kept you updated for a while(if your interested!) . but I have been busy compiling my tracklisting for my new album and adding a couple of new songs written in the last month or so. The tracklisting for the album, “As Above, So Below” , is as follows:-
The recording of the album will be done early this year and the quality will be greatly improved. Thanks for showing an interest and have a good 2011.
Just about to record my new album, Hegelian Dialectic, hopefully release the first track early in 2014. Also writing my autobiography about my life and struggle with mental illness, hopefully release the unfair stigma attached to it. May release it in stages on my website. Will also be putting a song up to download in a couple of weeks called Hold On. Thanks for reading and showing interest.Peace.
I’ve finished recording my seventh album, titled ‘Outside the Outsider`s’. The tracklisting is listed below
The album will be streamed on my website for a couple of weeks from the 31st of October
I will be recording new songs this year and hope to improve the quality. I have 15-20 songs to record with titles such as perception, time and space , rising moon and faith. The new song RITUAL is available to download now and is about the music industry and what it means to be the listener and consumer.
