SEEKING

ABOUT

Shouty mouthed cretin seeks band members, playing hip hop / rap with some heavier influences thrown in too.

I have been jamming on some tracks with a guitarist and some tracks loaded on to a loopstation, also have a bassist and a drummer interested.

Looking for a synth / keys / Piano player or someone adept at using samples in a live band setup.

Really keen to get a bunch of songs together, get tight as a band, put some music out and smash some gigs. Constantly writing too.

My last band was a hip hop / rap fusion band. Not necessarily looking to recreate that but still writing in a similar vein. Got a bunch of song ideas and looking for the right people to help me bring them into a live band setting.

I'll include some links below and have included some videos on my profile. Bare in mind, a lot of this is entirely tongue in cheek.

This is my band's one and only EP - I'm the 1st vocalist on track 1 and 4:

Influences

My influences are wide and varied. I have diverse taste in music, from Rock to Metal in all its forms, punk, Drum and Bass / Dubstep, Jungle, Techno and all forms of Electronic music, to more ambient music.

I'm open minded and will give anything a listen. I value authenticity and enjoy good music no matter the genre.

Hip Hop / Rap is probably the music that resonates with me the most in the sense of what I like to write and how you can convey things lyrically.

I nerd out about rap bars and writing and have many years of experience writing lyrics. Not the best singer in the world but I have a gan at all that.
Like a shan knock off half price Mac Miller spliced with goth hobbit DNA, rolled in patchouli and sent out into the world.
