Artist History I've been making music just as long as I can remember all the way to Nashville in the late 60's when I played my dads guitar with my grubby little paws, later I had a band, the Purple Frizbeez we were happy and jumpy dance beat funk pumpy. Having got a little bored with the effort I was putting into and not getting out of so many other egos I started making more music at home, building up a very basic studio, mixing straight to D.A.T. with no multitracking facilities. Last year I got it together to have a site here at MP3.com and I'd like to thank them for the enjoyable opportunity of gettin my music,... out there. I've had a fair bit of interest for a site that hasn't been updated freqently, everything from a Japanese label to some bredtrens somewhere in the Carribean who want a radio station playlist entry, and lots of radio stations with my stuff on too. So... it's respects to all for liking what I do. Cheers. Mike.

Group Members Mike Murphy and sometimes my lovely musician friends.
