For funk, hip hop, alternative, soft rock and jazz, margot du bois, rapster and numerous collab partners, the main ones being Tom King and The Ratman...
Ive been an online singer since 1999/2000. I first encountered online collaboration via Steinbergs "Rocketnetwork" which came free with Cubase back in those days.. I was totally awestruck by the fact that I could make music with people worldwide who Id never met personally before. Since those days Ive written and sung countless, completed songs and always have many others in various stages of completion. As you can see by the list I have dozens of collab partners, some of whom have become very close and dear friends in real life. Infact the first persons song I ever sang on was by Steve Pearce, who is now sadly deceased. He became one of my dearest friends and through him I met and became very close friends with the late Clint Warwick, who was the original bass player with the Moody Blues and Danny King who was one of the founder members of that band. Some of the people that I made music with in the past on and off line:- ..My dear friend, the late Clint Warwick, also Danny King and... steve pearce... sheck... lennie... bigmoon... bop... timmymacdd... jack miller... mixmaster mark... tfolie... jako2k... zauberflute... music1961...

(Those people were all members of the now defunct "Rocketnetwork", "The Rocketears"...... More recent people are,:- Teecee... ZIGGma... Steve Dinsmoor... Dirt Settlers... D Form... Lil Drizzy... Syngularity... Uncle fester... Violent... Tom KIng... Ratman... Yerrickl... Loren Risker... CBS Productions... Pete Consodine... Dace... Blue Tom... JDK... Sisters... Mick Wilson... Shedman...

Aimlessjazz... vvsdesign/Volker...TNuT...Frank Northcutt...Uberthrall... last, but always first... My wonderful partner in love, life AND music, JOEY/Joe Nickerson/RAPSTER/Nicky Quick... Because the list is long its possible I may have forgotten to mention someone here, so if I have please give me a nod and Ill fix that.. Im so very thankful to everyone whos made their music freely available to me, to the many whove written and created pieces especially for me and to those whove helped me along the way, believe me there have been so many...Thankyou to all of them.. I NEVER try to sound like anyone else when I sing, always prefering what comes naturally to me. I rarely if ever sing other peoples lyrics as I can only feel what I personally feel, thats not to say I dont appreciate what other songwriters write, I love reading their lyrics and listening to their songs, those are their feelings..:-) My lyrics are generally minimal. I dont feel I need to write a book when I can say it in a sentence..:-) Im very happy to be uniquely and uncontrollably me..:-)

Story behind the song
I`ve been a collector of Volkers music since first hearing his, "North, northwest" piece and have a folder brimming over with his creations/adaptations. When I heard this piece by him yesterday which was titled "Endless Road", I was instantly hooked, I loved the Zeppelin vibe that runs through the piece and found it compelling. Unfortunately there was`nt a download for it so I wrote and asked him if it would be possible to have a download, he wrote back immediately with a link. As soon as I had my mp3 of it I loaded it into cubase and sang the first words that came out, which are of course, very minimal.. ehheee... I did`nt tell Volker I was singing to it, I just sent him the finished song a couple of hours later, fortunately for me he loved it and asked me to post it. I could`nt have asked for a nicer piece of music to sing to. Hope if you listen that you like it too.. Here are peoples comments and reviews of this song moved over from songramp..

Lyrics
LONG, ENDLESS ROAD This takes me back to the times gone by... The days are gone... Oh, how they fly... It`s a long road... A long, endless road... A long, endless road... This makes me think of the time gone by... Oh, how it flies... Away... Oh, it`s an endless road... Oh, it`s an endless road... It`s an endless road... It`s an endless road... Aghhhh... =============================== copyright margot du bois
