Hello.

I play flute, keyboards, and guitar.

I played flute for 5 years, two of which were part of my school program, and later continued on my own. I mostly used to play feiruz/zeki nassif on flute. Currently i'm not playing flute anymore.

I've been a self-taught keyboardist, and i still play sometimes, mostly christmas songs in addition some eerie compositions i made inspired by horror/gothic movie soundtracks.

As for guitar, i've been playing electric guitar since three years, self-taught. I tend to play "groovy" metal stuff on guitar, like later Pantera/Sepultura, Marilyn Manson, Rammstein, Tanzwut among others because it's fun to play. Although i hate listening to NU metal, and the american school of thrash metal .. i much enjoy playing the genres.

Lately, i've been interested in folklore music, and i've been composing my own music. It's basically stuff that's easy to play, given my less-than-humble guitar playing skills, but my influnces draw mainly from Irish folk, Renaissance, and Nordic pagan anthems.

Cheers.

I play Guitar. I am influenced by Simon and Carfunkel.

Recently I am developing a passion for drums: go to youtube and search for Dave Weckl.
