Introduction to Krannaken: Who are we and what do we do?

Welcome to this exciting new website. Firstly, let’s get the introduction to Krannaken out of the way. We will then explain who we are and what we do?

We are Krannaken, an EDM duo based just outside Birmingham in the centre of England. Between us, we have over 50 years of experience in playing the guitar. However, we are both multi-instrumentalists.

Here is an example of our work…

We met through the local blind association in Sandwell. I wanted to find musicians who I could jam with. My advisor referred me to Everhald and it just so happened that we had similar interests in music.

What can you expect to find on this website?

We will bring you free and premium sample packs, presets and templates. We hope to bring you as many freebies as we bring paid ones.

Introduction to Everhald

Everhald is a musician with a tonne of experience. During the 1980s and 1990s, Everhald is able to boast that he toured with bands like UB40 and Aswad. He is educated to degree level in music and teaches guitar to students as a sideline.

Everhald has a wife, two sons and also a cat. He enjoys going out with family and friends and reading the same sort of fiction as myself.

Introduction to David

Initially, I first picked up the guitar in 1994. Most nights at the pubs and clubs. Thanks to my social life, I also wanted to be more involved in music. I first picked up the bass guitar and quickly moved to the six-string in an effort to learn something with a broader palette of frequencies.

However, I have become influenced by the trance music scene of the late 1990’s and turned my focus to creating EDM. However, I didn’t encounter the world of making music on a computer until 2013 when I made an investment in FL Studio 12.

In 2016, I went through some very tough circumstances with my family. Therefore, I turned all the built-up energy to making music. Since then, I have also studied music at University. Today, I am studying for a BA Honours Degree with the University of West London.

About the Author
David Verney is a graduate from the University of West London, husband, father, Christian and Tottenham Hotspur fan. He started Krannaken.com during his final year at University. The initial idea was just somewhere to put his ideas on the subject of music marketing. However, it has been going strong since then and (at the time of writing) this website is just over 3 years old. Ideas don't dry up because the industry is always changing. New websites with new features are being launched all the time. Therefore, Writer's Block does not feature. I hope you enjoy the blog. Please hit one of the banners and claim your free copy of The Complete Guide to Music Marketing. I plan to update my book with new content every year.
