Hey!
My name name is Troy. I've been playing music, mostly guitar for about 15 years. I have been inactive for a while but looking to get back into the mix with another person and change my style up.
I am a self taught guitarist and have dabbled in many other instruments for fun.
My previous experiences where as a lead guitarist in a death metal band for several years, then in a 3 piece acoustic band where I was a back up singer, then for since I can remember I have been singing and playing acoustic solo up until now.
I've always wanted to do an electronic / semi-electronic genre with someone else. So like a 2 piece with electronic or midi keyboards, a guitar, vocal and overlays, tap pads and maybe some other cool instruments. Mostly looking to mess around and perhaps record some funky tunes.
Looking to make an electronic duo that sounds like something along the lines of the artists Feki, Gold Panda, Bonobo and Hermitude.
