About Me & Munkio.com

This page is very out of date - I really want to update it as soon as I can - so here are just a few things that I do at present.


Music Journalism

www.jazzwise.com - The UK's Leading Jazz Publication

Jazzwise Magazine is the UK’s leading jazz publication that has established itself as the market leader through its fresh and broadminded coverage of the UK and international jazz scene. With in-depth articles and interviews written by a vibrant team of award winning journalists, some of whom are themselves musicians, this is the perfect magazine to reflect the diversity and innovation that continues to make jazz the vibrant and exciting music it is today. I have been a regular contributor to Jazzwise as both the Gig Guide Editor, compiling approximately 300 gigs each month, plus writing the regular DVD review column and other reviews and artist interviews.

Bass Guitar Magazine - The UK's only dedicated Bass Magazine

iI have been a contributor for the UK's only dedicated bass guitar magazine for around a year now - interviewing some of the bass world's biggest names including Matthew Garrison, Carles Benevent, Kai Eckhardt and John Patitucci as well as writing an in-depth report from this year's Frankfurt Musik Messe in Germany.












Website Management & Content Production


www.ijazz.org - Universal Classics and Jazz Website

Arguably the only dedicated jazz portal in the UK, iJazz.org remains a distinctly different site to most of the UK’s jazz websites. A diverse mix of news, features and interactive new media sections, featuring streamed interviews and gigs by some of the world’s best jazz artists, both old and new, iJazz.org is a unique magazine style website. I have managed the website for two years now and has been populated solely by content I have produced, reflecting both my skills as a writer, editor, video producer and graphic designer, I also regularly design and send HTML emails to the 20,000 strong database.
