Moving Forward…
Nobody expected the 2020 we would all have. I am realistically suspicious that 2021 won’t be much better in terms of political drama, pandemics, and the cost of living for many of us. When I wrote Surviving on Borrowed Time which released at the end of 2019, my aim was to compose a dystopian adventure …

Presenting HELIXIRx – sounds of the 80s with a modern twist!
A change of pace as I take a little bit of time out of doing the usual progressive rock stuff. I’ve been composing some synthwave/synthpop under the artist HELIXIRx and have also had the role of the retro art and various collaborations. The debut album Authenticity is due October 2020 and features 14 catchy tracks. …

I am the first one to put my hand up and admit that going from Google’s …

DeGoogling my Life Part II: Exploring Mountains of Extracted Data and Revealing How Much Information I Handed Over
After deciding to dump Google (or as much as I could, at least) I figured I’d go through the export of my main personal account that I have had for many years. I’m by no-means an online privacy connoisseur. As stated in the first part of my DeGoogling journal, I opted for Outlook as an …

DeGoogling my Life Part I: Moving emails, contacts and calendars from Gmail to Outlook
It’s not me, it’s you… Technically part one for me would have been moving to DuckDuckGo and trying to rely a little less on Google for services like maps and cloud storage, but this was the big one for me. An email account — well, actually several accounts spread across Google’s business suites, really — …

Checking in!
It has been a while since I have been this busy (a.k.a not being a lazy shit) I’ve been designing and working on a desktop/mobile application which will be revealed soon. I’ve also finally decided to push forward with the second album – the sequel to Surviving on Borrowed Time. I had written and recorded …
