Hello music friends,
This is our first
post here, so hi everyone!
I play drums for
MetaQuorum, a new music project by Dmitry Ermakov. We will post an
introduction with information about MetaQuorum at a later time.
First of all I want
to say that we appreciate this website very much, it is a great
source of information and a wonderful opportunity to share knowledge
and ideas.
We like lots of
different kinds of music, I personally come from a prog-metal
background and got interested in many other (progressive) music
styles later. Some of my favourites are: Michael Manring, Cardiacs,
Dream Theater, Kate Bush, Miles Davis, Frank Zappa, Led Zeppelin and
many more.
Dmitry's background
is classical and jazz, he majored in classical piano, composition and
conducting at St. Petersburg State Capella and then studied sax,
piano and improvisation at the Jazz Faculty, Mussorgsky Music
Colledge. Some of Dmitry's influences are: Miles Davies, Marcus
Miller, George Duke, Herbie Hancock, Joe Zawinul, Oscar Peterson,
Weather Report, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel, Kraftwerk,
Yello, King Crimson, Chicago, Vivaldi, Frescobaldi, Mozart and
Rachmaninoff.
Greetings from
MetaQuorum and have a good day!
Koos van der Velde
