Classical ambient folk electric crossover particularly seeking rhythm drums and bass, either midi or actual, for collaboration and studio recording songs, instrumental pieces and experiment. I have about 1 hr of original compositions (plus a number of complete songs) which require collaboration to take to the limit.
Looking for collaboration from someone who has a great feel for percussion/drums and iconic bass lines. Some of the tunes would work well as soundtrack/film music; others as stand alone instrumental pieces; I also have songs but again these require input of rhythm foundation (drums/bass) so that the percussive acoustic guitar can dissappear and allow other instruments to blend into the piece, make them something special.
Also should say that I played in a band (1983-88) many years ago, since when I have only produced sketch pieces of acoustic guitar tunes and songs alone at home. In the last year or so, I feel the time is right for collaboration, and stepping out with a more polished and upfront product.
The uploaded piece here requires percussion/drums and bass adding, then expand the guitar width and add final counter melodies as it builds to the end - currently this is an outline sketch.
I live in Winchcombe, Glos, but also spend time in Pershore where I run my landscape business from.
