Today’s guest is composer/producer/drummer/pianist/audio engineering lecturer/film-maker Daniel Newstead. He is the ambidextrous one-man show Omegachild – smashing out incredible high-energy performances including: live drums, keys, synths and samples –simultaneously!
Our chat meanders through his early musical experiences, self discovery, spirituality, the idea for Omegachild and the transition to full-time music work.
