Soundwrx is delighted to welcome Gregory J Bennett, aka 'Groove
Generator'© into the Soundwrx family. He brings with him an
established catalogue of music and has an impressive list of credits to
his name.
Gregory, who lives in Louisiana USA, is an award-winning innovator of
'funkafied' and hard driving rock music with a pop under-current. He has
already released CD's that demonstrate his versatility and the urban
dance grooves that he is known for. His musical apprenticeship began in
a New Orleans school band that lead to performing with local bands and
his first taste of the big time came with an invite as opening act for a
Chaka Khan concert. His self-imposed education into every style of music
from R&B to pop, jazz to hip-hop and easy-listening to orchestral is
evident in his very individual musical style. Gregory describes this as
"a delightful synthesis of sensual, seductive and provocative gumbo!" A
'Listen & Exchange Award' as one of the Top 20 Indie Composer/Producers
in 2003 affirms this.
His commercial credits include music for mobile music licensing and
distribution, TV advertising and U.S. cable TV soundtracks for VH-1,
MTV, E! and HBO among others. He has also enjoyed success with film
soundtracks, most notably 'Cain & Abel' (released by MercuryRising Films
2005 & to DVD 2007).
Soundwrx Creative Director, Craig Hopkinson: "Gregory approached us
recently as another avenue to distribute his material. On auditioning
his tracks it was an easy decision to invite him to join us. The music
he brings both complements and expands the Soundwrx range. The power and
production quality behind rock tracks such as 'Anticipate me' can't fail
to evoke a response!
"Our further research informed us that he had lost most of his
possessions in the wake of the Katrina hurricane, not least his music
equipment. Anyone who can bounce straight back into work & production
after that experience as he did, shows great strength of character
– a trait that will only serve to bolster his future success.
"We are currently working on producing a compilation album for release
under the Soundwrx label to include some of the 'Groove Generator' back
catalogue coupled with some recently submitted material of a more
ambient style that will illustrate Gregory's diversity and the continual
evolution of his music."
