Artist Statement

Brent Watkins
Piano/Synths

I am an artist who embraces the intriguing juxtaposition of being both an Electro-Rock composer and a ragtime pianist. This seemingly odd combination represents a unique dichotomy that harmoniously coexists within my work. Music, for me, is not just a passion but a profound expression of my intellectual and spiritual self.

Ragtime piano, with its nostalgic charm and syncopated rhythms, forms the bedrock of my musical journey. It is an intellectual exploration of music history, where I connect with the roots of a bygone era. The intricate fingerwork and playful melodies of ragtime captivate my intellect, demanding precision while allowing for improvisation. This art form has enriched my understanding of the craft, forging a link to the past that remains timeless.

Conversely, as an electronic composer, I find myself immersed in the boundless possibilities of the digital age. This represents the spiritual dimension of my music, where I embrace the ever-evolving landscape of sound.

The world of electronic music is a playground of technology and innovation, pushing the boundaries of musical expression. It is a testament to my belief in the transformative power of music.

My work as a ragtime pianist and electronic composer reflects the coexistence of tradition and progress, forging a unique path in the world of music. Through this duality, I endeavor to share the intellectual and spiritual essence of music, inviting others to join me in this extraordinary voyage.
