about

Dear Listener,

My name is John Guilor, I’m a middle aged human man, occasional actor, full time voice artist, part time carer, and lover of music.

The album then: It’s all very Lo-Fi backroom basic stuff. It’s the sound of a middle aged man and frustrated musician who came up with the hairbrained idea of buying a MIDI keyboard and making an album in one week with no previous experience to call upon. It's a nascent first album as I feel my way through it rather than knowing precisely what I'm doing. I hope that approach has made this sound 'different'. I like different. I even got to try my hand at making a home made Tardis sound to add to the insanity of the track “Time Travellers” which involved me scraping my house key down the bottom E and A strings on my guitar because, if you didn’t already know, that’s precisely how you do it… piano strings are better though.



Here is 147639…

It’s tongue in cheek, it’s deep, occasionally dark, funny, a bit strange, full of surprises and it isn’t normal, in short it’s ME. And that’s what I wanted to do, to communicate the me-ness of me in sound. I wanted people who know me well to nod and recognise me in the music itself and those who don’t know me to nod and recognise themselves and maybe even tap a foot or laugh, or maybe even think. 


Oh, and It’s 99p! Always an amusing price for anything.

Yours sonically,


John.
