I'd like to make a suggestion to add GorMusik to PA.

GorMusik is a solo project by Gordon "Gordo" Bennett. His music is described on his web site as progressive rock, symphonic rock, progmental classical, and space tripping.

Web site here.

An edited excerpt from his bio:

"Gordo picked up his first guitar, a $15 acoustic, at the age of 10 and immediately fell in love with the instrument... 
By the time the mid 70's rolled around Gord was being influenced by the likes of Genesis, Rush, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, etc. Then the awakening came in his mid 20's, discovering bands like Return To Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, King Crimson and Frank Zappa putting Gordo on a musical path he is still on today.

Now playing guitar for 45 years, and having played in various rock and progressive rock bands through the years. Gord became more interested in synth guitar, electronic music, midi and audio recording and the production of music. Gordo has recorded and produced several albums over the years including, Electronic New Age, Acoustic New Age, Rock and Progressive Rock Albums that are in different stages of production to be released in the near future."

For more details, please see his site.

In June 2015, GorMusik released "Fun in OuterSpace". The music is available for listening here and downloading here.

He is currently working on a new album that is planned for release this summer.

Gordo plays guitar and guitar synthesizer, creating a variety of instrument sounds. He also does any programming himself. "Fun in OuterSpace" includes a variety of music from movie soundtrack classical style to progressive metal. Some of the music was recently featured on ISKC Rock and WebRadio.

Please give a listen to his music. I hope he will be considered for ProgArchives.
I used to be a fan of particular bands like Rush, Yes, and Deep Purple. Now I travel the Proglands, exploring a little bit of everything. I have become a Prog Voyager.

Gordo has since appeared on the Colin Tench Project album "Hair in a G-String" and is currently working on a second GorMusik album called "Progtopolis" as well as an EP called GorFusion. We will hear more from this man in 2017 for sure.
