The Ghost That Walks
Dark Genius
Why didn't you send us stuff before
After a few bars you know who it is
The best of your style from your country
I've been making dark underground electronic music since the nineties. I've had my own unique style from the very beginning. Tracks from 10, 15, 25 years ago are still getting played.
I just sit down with a blank mind and let the sounds tell me where they want to go. No ideas, no concepts, no plan, just the depths of nothingness. Or is it the Ghost telling me what to pick and what to play?
A supernatural action film is on the way, with a full electro and techno soundtrack. Directed, written and produced by The Ghost That Walks. Blood, guts, guns, hell, martial arts, parkour. I'm an action film junkie, I can't wait to get started and prove to everyone that it can be done, and done well.
Thank you for listening. There is always something hard to describe in the back of my mind, and that's the Ghost with his hand on my shoulder as I write. Maybe you hear it too. The Ghost walks with you.
