"Ed is a great, soulful, swinging underrated player deserving of wider recognition." - Bill Milkowski 1/13/11" "An expressive instrumentalist, Cherry has a hip, melodic approach that is a refreshing contrast to guitarists who frequently resort to playing 'finger music', the execution of rapid streams of notes that serve no musical purpose other than to fill space"- Jim Ferguson: Jazztimes - 06/02 "Particularly dazzling - Cherry's guitar had the young bar crowd dancing" - Kay Cordtz : blues review-5/10 "But this album’s ace in the hole is guitarist Ed Cherry. “Blues drenched” is not a cliché when applied to Cherry. Every time he solos, a rapt calm descends and a timeless story begins, familiar yet still a revelation when told with blues truth." - from 10/9/12 JazzTimes review of virginia mayhew recording: "mary lou williams-the next 100years" "Dear Ed Recently I have heard you featured on WBGO and really took note... Great Expression, Ed... I Hear You, not just good jazz guitar or good musical vocabulary but you... That is a Deeper Accomplishment as far as I am concerned... when Who you are Speaks through the skill and development...

Starquake is a studio project by German multi-instrumentalist, singer, sound engineer, producer MIKEY. Influenced by genre greats like IRON MAIDEN, Spock's Beard and 70s Hard Rock, Starquake's music combines heavy guitars, huge drums and sophisticated vocals. Seasoned with quite some Hammond Organ and great arrangements, Times that matter is always harmonic and favours songs and melody.

 Starquake (all of them being live and session experienced musicians) have arranged this impressive journey through the 70s and 80s with the modern sound of today. Famous English fantasy artist Rodney Matthews was so impressed that he decided to contribute the coverartwork for this album, which adds a perfect optical treat to the gourmet sound. Long anthems and catchy rock tunes - Times That Matter Starquake ist das Studioprojekt von Multiinstrumentalist, Sänger, Sound Engineer und Producer MIKEY, the Voice. Beeinflusst von Genre-Größen wie Iron Maiden und Spock's Beard, bewegt sich die Musik zwischen Heavy Gitarren, fetten Drums und ausgefeilten Gesängen. Gewürzt mit einem guten Schuss Hammond Orgel und großen Arrangements bleibt das ganze immer harmonisch und melodieorientiert. Mit Gast-Musikern (Musiklehrer und Musikwissenschaftler), die alle langjährige Bühnen- und Studio-Erfahrung haben, realisiert MIKEY, the Voice mit STARQUAKE eine Klangreise in die 1970er und 80er Jahre im modernen Sound der Gegenwart.
