Multi-instrumentalist - now mostly solo acoustic-guitarist playing original fingerpicking arrangements of popular songs (video-clips available on CD-ROM and the WWW), MIDI-keyboard musician, once world-famous MOD-musician, collector of 20+ years worth of obscure original and experimental music (with over 80 original CDs and CD-extras available).

Once called "the best guitarist in the country" (1982), maintaining the "Best Personal Site on the Web"(Sydney Morning Herald, September 1999), featured in The Bulletin magazine ("The Real Thing" - September 2001) - otherwise a quiet and modest musical-type person.

"The music here was all home-recorded - so don't expect any sonic miracles. Nor is it the best that I'm capable of - even if some of it is very, very good."

Alex van Starrex - I play everything (guitars, bass, keyboards, etc.). Other music - including jams and band recordings stretching back to 1980 - have yet to surface here.
