SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm looking for a band that needs a jet engine on the mic. A band that needs an open and powerful vocal range. Musicians who want multiple vocal styles, sometimes they're not even sure what will happen however, they're are often surprised at the outcome and it's always fun.

These musicians are achieving mastery with their music, so it's not enough to have trite unsatisfying lyrics. They need someone who plays with language constructs, someone that creates songs that are puzzles that keeps listeners coming back, to figure out what it means to them. It's the only thing that suits the music you created. It's what justifies the time, effort and attention to detail you put in your playing.

This band needs a vocalist with stage presence and confidence that is visceral, animalistic, instinctive, intelligent, emotional because when we get on stage the audience isn't going to have anything else on their mind.

These musicians, they know how to play with other musos. They could have a big ego, it's just that they don't need one, their playing says everything anyone needs to know so humility comes easily. They know the band is a synergy and that whatever is created will have it's own life. The sum of the combined styles is greater than the whole.

So if I reach out to you, it means your music has inspired me, the lyrics are already forming and it's who I think you are and what I think you're capable of.

If I inspire you enough to reach out to me and your music needs a voice, I will listen to what your music has to say then write it because something bought you here.

I'm not clear how it works, just that it does.

All the best
Johnny

EQUIPMENT

I am also a music producer. As a Technologist and innovator I have everything to record and produce music anywhere.

I write software and built systems containing several innovations in music production. I have Australian, US and International Trademarks registered, patents pending for my musical software inventions. My postgrad is Systems Development, I also experiment with simulated neural networks, a form of A.I.

I'm a little obsessed with the relationship of how nature, math and sound connect.

I'm a registered APRA artist as with the somewhat rough songs in this test project that I'll refine when I have time. I've done many live recordings of full bands for mine and friends projects as I developed the technology.

If you are an artist, contact me. I am building something made for musicians. If you are a vocalist that needs help writing songs, I will help you even if I don't perform the songs.

My technology is unique and it is designed to produce sonic outcomes that I am perfecting. Help me with my journey and I'll help you with yours.

I don't think there is enough good bands out there because of the way the music industry is structured around corporations that force musicians to be outsiders. I've read the contacts, I'd never sign one.

I think we've lost something, a part of our culture that was part of us is missing or lost so I built this technology to help me find it.

Will you help me?
