Hi, I'm Thomas, a German, living and working in China. I love music, playing guitar, bass, and some keys. Especially like to compose music, and always looking for singers... :-) If you are interested in a collaboration, just contact me.
Music is an important part of my life. I enjoy practicing and playing, and try to become the best musician I could be...
Composing and recording songs, which others enjoy and like.
Ahm... peace, less violence, reasonable leaders in all countries taking care for the best long-term interest of their people and the world itself. Sustainable future... what the hell is going on out there ?!?!?
Guns 'n' Roses - Civil War
Dream Theater, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Nightwish, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, Deep Purple, Ayreon, Pain of Salvation, Within Temptation, Serenity, Kamelot, Lacuna Coil,....
To express myself
Depends on the song and topic. Emotions, feeling, ...
Good, when I know what I'm doing. Nervous as hell, when I don't...
Back to the roods, pure and honest music, expression of emotions and feelings. There are so many tools now, it is easy to create a professional POP song just with technology. I still love and admire the skill and virtuosity of real musicians who spent their hours of practice to master the instrument. This is what I aspire and like to listen to, musicians who do what they love and Rock the hell out of it.
Just getting started....
So hard to find fellow musicians to collaborate with, especially singers....
Yes, in China, Suzhou we have a pretty hot local music scene. I know some of the main players, who play live, but also give lessons. Keeping contact, my daughter takes lessons.
Hard to say. Probably a well developed social network, being present on the main sites of social media. I guess, nowadays, social networking takes almost the same amount of time than practicing on the instrument and creating music. I still believe that skills, practice, and endurance eventually make the difference.
Ayreon, Pain of Salvation, Serenity, Within Temptation, Xandria, Blind Guardian, Wintersun, Sunburst,...
