<p>I began playing guitars @ the age of 13 after many years begging to my parents for my first lesson. I was meant tu use my guitar tuition to perform at school mass being a Catholic school boy. There I was lambasted as too eccentric and incapable, well being an egotist this comment did not deter me in anyway. My influences at the time were Iron Maiden, I convinced some mates to build a band together and thus all 4 of us set out to learn our instrument of choice. Within 4 months the bassist and drummer were ready to rock though guitar lessons do require more time, thus the band found it's end. I quit tuition and embarked on a journey of self discovery in the years to follow I mingled and jammed with the finest in Malta thus learning. I sat out on a journey to my land of origin, England (although I was too young to remember much of it) my home. Here I found myself as a guitarist and devoted most of my time to learning more. I went and learnt about recording (using 4 track tascams and 8 track reel2reel) as well as more guitar tuition directed at technique. Within a year I found a great songwritting partner who had a load of lyrcs ready for music. We were like the Lennon & mcCartney though it was Trash Metal with the use of synths following the path of Megadeth, Bathory and others similair to these bands. The most difficult task was forming the band, we had garnered a deal with a small dance label that was tithering with contacts in the indusrtry. All the talk was of touring and the use of session musicians....on hinde side maybe we should have gone for the session guys. We did perform on occassions though the band never did materialize I walked out on my baby and headed straight into the world of crewing via the label. Well to cut a long story short I moved back to Malta in order to find myself after living such a dream, I needed to rediscover my personality though music kept screaming from within. Having moved from listening to Metal only and learning all about dance music, Ataris, Akai samplers and greatly apreciating the influence it had on music I began my new quest, making digital tracks. The beauty of music is that you can never stop learning. In 8 years of learning and producing I have had 3 eps and an album released under Jacques L'Monde through a Maltese online based label Peeled Tracks (now closed as a label). I am at that point were am looking for a new name new concept and will probably release tracks through a label of my creation next year. The beauty of the internet is that its revolutionized the music industry and given great opportunity for everyone out there to do what they do best.</p><p>Love & Peace......</p>
