I don't know if any folks on this board know NuSkoolTone. His name was Wes and I was very good frieinds with him and his family.

Sadly, he passed away unexpectedly yesterday morning from a brain aneurysm. He was in his 40's. He was a great lover of the Kronos and a heavy giggin musician who I worked with over a 10 year period.

Please send positive thoughts and prayers to his family.

I am so sorry to hear that! Far too young... I've spoken with him many times on these forums. My heartfelt sympathies to his family and friends.

Very sorry to hear about this. I pray that Wes has found peace. I've seen his posts for about 10 years. He will be missed.

Very sad news, too young by half. Always seemed a very nice guy from posts on various forums. Give my best wishes to his family.

RIP NuSkoolTone.


Perhaps Korg could fulfill his setlist feature request as a posthumous recognition of sorts? Smile

What terrible news. Sad
We had some good discussions on gear and sounds, I think we had similar musical backgrounds/situations. He also gave me advice when my car (with gear) got stolen, it was only a few weeks after his got stolen. He was a very nice guy and from what I could make out, a gifted musician. Shocking to hear he just passed like that. Thank you for letting us know.
I'm so sorry, my thoughts are with his friends and family.

Very sorry to hear that. I'm also 40 and can't imagine passing away. All the thoughts are with his family and friends.
