About
Henta:
Henta
is a singer/songwriter and has been writing songs for about 30
years. Although classically trained on piano, she progressed to
keyboards ranging from a Yamaha SY55 to a Roland XP-80.
She
now has a home studio set up in Seattle and uses Cubase SX3/Cubase
4 with mostly virtual instruments for her recordings, as well
as using Ableton LIVE for peformances.
Music
is her true passion and vocation and she tends to write from the
heart, from personal experience and influence of others who come
into her life. She writes both secular and spiritual songs and
hopes that her music touches people in some way.
Henta also teaches children to play the piano and express themselves through music and songwriting and very much enjoys this part of her musical vocation.
Collaborations and influences:
Henta
has been in a number of bands and has collaborated with other
musicians and sound engineers on projects in varying styles of
music from ballads - pop - rock - dance - meditation. She has
composed and released much production library music for Northstar
Music and Stock International, many of which often crop up
on the Discovery Channel. She was also a finalist in Unisong 1999.
One of her most memorable and interesting projects involved working
with Geraint Hughes (www.thepodule.com)
who is famous for co-writing some hits from the 70s some of which
have since been remixed recently, namely 'I lost my heart to a
Starship Trooper' and 'Barbados'. They produced a mixture of covers
and original songs, as well as library pieces together from the
famous 'Podule'.
Another of Henta's other biggest and most recent sources of influence
and support has been Marc Francois (www.darkstate.co.uk)
who has been her sound engineer for La Mint Collection and co-writer
on 'Wanna Luv You' from this collection. Also special thanks go
to Prof Stu and Wes Phd for 'La Mint' inspiration.
