Act Of Will's Sound
My sound is based on some of my favorite groups, Guitars, Bass, Violin, usually two drum parts, sometimes keys, although no hard rules, and lots of room for experimentation.
Genres Include progressive rock, progressive metal, jazz fusion, funk and whatever else floats my boat at the time. I use real and virtual instruments. I have on occasion used some commercial drum midi loops, almost certainly modified.
Michael Wilson
I am a multi instrumentalist, composer, producer, professional audio mixer. My goal is to produce many faces of instrumental progressive music. I love odd time signatures, syncopated rhythm parts, and various modal scales etc. Slow to very fast tempos, melodic to dissonant passages..
Some Of my Modern Influences are:
Haken, Steve Via, Primus, Animals As Leaders, Dream Theater, Polyphia, Aristocrats plus all the old school progressive standards, Zappa, Dregs, BrandX................
