     Blackdruid

aka Druidh Dhubh/Black Druidh

 

The inspiration for Blackdruid came in late 2013.  Sam had been undergoing solitary bardic training with a modern druid order since August 2012; and he credits this with re-awakening his inspiration, allowing him to continue something he has loved since childhood - crafting music.

 

After starting out with Logic 9 and a small midi keyboard, a whole new world of possibilities opened out before him when he signed up to a Berklee School of Music course in early 2014.  He upgraded his Ableton freeware and invested in some professional studio 

headphones.  Through this course, he has met a worldwide network of like-minded music-makers, and has been relishing the opportunities for collaboration ever since.  This soon prompted him into the world of social media, where he and his friends have set up the IMBAS Music network, to stay connected and share ideas and support (www.imbasmusic.com).

 

 

BIO

"Independant music maker, remixer and collaborative artist"

The next development occured in January 2016, with the building of 'Blackdruid Studio' - finally he had his own dedicated, creative space in which to work his craft.  So, he invested next in a small Akai pad machine, a pair of Genelec monitors, and dug out an old Yamaha DJX keyboard from adolescence.  Ready for business!  Since then he has had 2 releases with Oddeo Netwerx, and is working closely with the French rapper/producer Terrier Prod (LL Lapin Rose) and the international Import Music Group (IMG).

 

Blackdruid is a multi-instrumentalist, playing guitar, bass and keyboard.  He has played live on many occasions - bass, guitar, percussion, but his true passion is creating music.

 

He currently resides in Woking UK, and is always available for collaboration, either online or physically in Blackdruid Studios.  Get in touch!
