Ok this page is real simple at the minute. I have just thrown it together until Di designs me a decent music apart of my site :-)

I am Keith Hyde born 1973 currently aged 32. I stared my musical career at 11 when I was in a marching band as a horn player. I was also in a few bands at secondary school playing 60's classics and own material.

I have been a DJ in clubs and on Internet radio but my heart lies very much in writing and playing music.

Badger_midi started in 1997 I was writing midi music files to accompany the graphics of Dr Deany (graphics and software developer) mainly in the form of screensavers.
All the tracks I created were laid down at Sunnybank Studios in Coventry between 1997 and 1999.

Since then I have worked mainly arranging scores for marching band tuned percussion.

I had a short but most awesome run as a drummer with the Manchester based rock band 'Dark Day Off' and I have worked with the most awesome 'Garf Spaceman' who I hope to work on collaborations with more so later this year 2006.

I will be adding an mp3 of me and garf soon along with any other bits i have arranged or written.

So heres the timeline:
1997 -1999 Writing tracks as seen on the midi page at Sunnybank Studios Coventry
