Bio

Hey, my name, as you can see, is Sam. I write and create music when I get the chance to in between university work and enjoy using a variety of methods to do so. I play guitar and some keyboards but a lot of the music I create can discard these instruments entirely; I have developed a taste for creating music entirely form computer generated waveforms and the subsequent manipulation of them until something interesting or inspiring comes out of them that I can feel proud to call music. Don't be put off though, I also write "proper songs" for acoustic guitar and heavier rockier tracks. I thouroughly enjoyed making these tracks and I hope you enjoy listening to them!

    I liked your two tracks, did it take a lot of hits to get into the charts? Did you use something like cubase or reason to make your tracks. Cheers if you reply
