Details:
Mantra of Love is the latest step in a creative life journey for Randall J. Fox. Raised in the Yorkville music and art scene in Toronto in the early 1960s, Fox traces his family roots to Black, Shoshone First Nation and Jewish cultures.
Being a warm person and a cool guy, Randall has a gift for connecting instantly with people from across the spectrum. He is a socially conscious nature-lover who recently co-led a group on a canoe trip through Temagami, including meeting with Native spiritual leaders.
Fox has been experimenting with music since the age of 14, and was already producing recordings of his own and other people''s music by the time he finished high school. This led naturally to work as a sound & lighting technician with Sound Factory, working with acts like Teenage Head, Nina Hagen, Yellowman and Michaele Jordana & The Poles.
From there Randall became interested in music videos, when they first burst on the market in the early 80''s. He created and managed the Rock Video Road Show, which toured to local dances across Canada. That led to the role of Technical Director for the Sony New Media Festival. It was there Randall met his first Macintosh computer and sensed the creative opportunities it would provide. He went on to spend the next 12 years as a computer graphics, video and Mac systems consultant, but would write and practice his music and refine his singing voice before and after work every day.
Stepping back from corporate I.T. work in 1997 to have more time for music, he worked as a multi media specialist for the Toronto District School Board, introducing disadvantaged youth to technology. Fox composes for, and plays, lead and bass guitar, synthesizer, dulcimer and drums. His sound reflects a deep love for rhythm and melody. He names as musical influences the Neville Brothers, writer/producer Daniel Lanois and British band Talk Talk, as well as the guitar players'' guitar player, Jimi Hendrix.
Two years of intensive writing, arranging and recording later, Fox has released Mantra of Love, "a bouquet of sound and emotion", a spirited collection of ideas and rhythms that people of wide musical tastes will connect with as they review the past and anticipate the 21st century future. Cuts on the CD range from trance and dub to rock, pop and groove. One song has already gone to number eight on the Internet Alt. Country chart, https://www.tradebit.com.
Fox, who recently produced soul diva Coco Brown''s demo CD, and a debut album for singer-songwriter Greg Ruhl, is joined by an array of Toronto musical talent on Mantra of Love. Randall has one son, Ashley, a serious music student who at the age of 15 has already been the featured artist on several classical piano and vocal recordings.
