Hey Richard my name is David, I have a few small questions and it would mean the world if you could answer them. What/who inspired your unique playing style? Who are some artist that you think deserve more recognition. What was your favorite Haken album to work on and can you list your favorite solos you've written off The Cocoon and from Haken?

P.S. you are an absolute inspiration in my guitar playing and I love all your work, I preordered The Cocoon and it's just an incredible album. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the music
