Hi! I'm looking for web based vocalists and guitarists who want to form a virtual band just for fun recording collaboration work. Make some great music, learn from each other, bounce new ideas, compose music together etc.
It's purely a hobby, but who knows if we make something half decent we could put it on streaming services and market it.
I enjoy creating all sorts of music. I'm passionate about sound engineering and mixing - bit of a nerd. I play the drums and keys (love synthesizers), and with a bit of practice I guess sort of reasonably well enough to play a pub gig on either. But I'm better as a studio musician.
I'm happy to have a go at creating new cover versions, or dive straight into our own material.

EQUIPMENT
I have a dedicated studio and recording room (my spare bedroom!) Lots of DAW's - MuTools, Logic Pro, Cubase etc. Audio interfaces, mixers, mics, amps, reverb and effects boxes etc.. Adam Audio Reference Monitors. And a shed load of acoustic treatment!
Hundreds of VST's. These days virtual instruments are so good they're slowly replacing my physical kit.
I love creating new sounds and instruments both virtually and real things.
Physical Instruments I own at present:
- Yamaha Synthesisers (MX61, DX7, Motif)
- Alesis synth
- Drum kits lots of them (PDP Maple, 2Box Electronic, Roland Td12 V-drums)
- Bass guitar, amp & stuff
- Electric guitar, amp
- Acoustic guitar

I played all instruments on this track, mixed it and mastered etc. Just for fun really. But I can't sing, so if you fancy adding some vocals, get in touch!
