Similar Artists
Few, if you consider the whole picture. On electric guitar, probably Joe Satriani, or maybe Holdsworth. On acoustic, maybe Al DiMeola. My electronica sounds like Vangelis or Pink Floyd, if it sounds like anybody (I like the old guys). Mind, I don't stick to that mold, either. As for my production values, I like my recordings clean and crisp, with an element of pleasant surprise.
Influences
As a guitarist, Hendrix, Van Halen, Holdsworth, Benson and Russ Freeman, plus a few others, tossed in for spice. As a musician in general, mostly jazzy stuff, classical, electronic music, and some harder, rocky influences.
