About

I am a musician and I.T. professional from the U.K. but currently reside in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan.

I have been in Japan for most my adult life therefore I also speak Japanese. 日本語も大丈夫です。I came to Japan due to the love of Japanese culture and Martial Arts. I have a black belt in Kararte and I try to go to the Dojo whenever I have time.

In terms of music, I like to teach how to play using minimal theory while avoiding complex jargon, since this is the way I learnt. Similar to Japanese, the writing system is not a hard as it looks. There is a lot of learn and remember but it is basically simple symbols all grouped together to create a larger picture. Music can also be simplified which makes it much more enjoyable to learn.

For people wanting to work or live in Japan let me know if you have any questions. I have good connections in the Kanagawa area for residency. If you have a degree in anything you can easily teach English, get a 3 years Visa and you can quit anytime. your Visa will still be valid for the original period. I originally taught English then I studied Japanse and worked for various Japanese companies.

My content is mainly in the R&B, Neo Soul area. There are R&B chord progressions in both WAV and MIDI. Full tracks with stems. A Chord Machine (chord generator) and learning material.
