Well, as the kind peeps at Myspace have finally relented and given us another two track spaces I thought I'd update my tracks. Usual mix of old and new ..

1) 'AWAKE!' - Recorded for a Radio Manchester session in '83. 'After Dark' were pretty popular on the  indie/alt circuit and we even had a number one  record. (Well, it was a track of ours on a number one compilation so, it still counts!)  I wrote most of the tracks and played, alternatively, bass and drums in this band,  depending on our periodic personell changes. The nucleus was Pete Hannam - quite possibly the best guitarist I've ever worked with - and myself. Pete went on to do session work for many name Manc indie bands. (And you thought they all played their own instruments?) and despite us practically spending all our musical development years together in various bands, we somehow managed to lose touch.  Last I heard he was looking for me. DOH!!!!

2) 'Dynamite'. Early solo track - done with minimal - and cheap - gear, A lyrical ode to a mate, which sprouted from the hook  "You're dynamite".  The recording quality IS indeed garbage, but, there's a spirit in there, and precisely NO sequencers at all.

3) 'To Be Confirmed'. A more recent track! I had a request from a film maker to write  a "short piece to accompany a scene of a guy lost in reverie on a long journey" for a very short film. The film is still in prog, and subsequently the song itself is still to be 'fine tuned'.

Stay tuned. For the next batch of tracks I think I'll add some of my punk band work. .. and maybe some proper synthpop. :-)
