I am whom?

Welcome to my blog! I am a Solo Keyboardist and Freelance Designer and a graduate of Transport Design from Staffordshire University, UK. I undertake various projects and activities including Offroading, Photography, and my ongoing restoration of my 1966 Austin Mini! I am also working on the design and manufacture of a custom Keytar called the Syblade. I'm on Youtube, Twitter, Coroflot, Myspace, Facebook, Reverbnation, Soundcloud and am the first result on google if you type "Jonny Stone"! I will be writing about all these activities and more in this blog. The titles are simply memorable (and largely irrelivant) quotes from friends, family or myself! I hope you enjoy my work!

45. "Ooooo its Friday the 13th except on a Thursday"

Thankyou again Marvin for another insightful comment.

Time for some Mini pictures!


 Door frame is now complete (ish). It'll need a bit more welding and a skim of filler before its done.


 On to the driver side floor. Definitely becoming a little more ruthless in what I cut out.


 I say ruthless... there wasn't really anything there to save!


 Thats the floor nearly removed along with all the cack-handed bodge jobs on the sill and inner wings.


 Thats Patch. One of the only... erm, things that I will allow to distract me at any time when im working on my car! Watching him climb in an out of a car that spins round when you climb in is quite amusing :P


 Patch leaves, Floor panels are in... I then got bored and moved onto another section...


 ...only to find that was bodged too. Great.


 Thats the driver side rear all welded and rust-proofed. The hole at the back is where the subframe panel will be mounted, but I need the subframe fitted to line it up properly! Thats a final job that.


 I went a bit mental with the welder here coz the metal is thicker... Couldn't resist!


After years of working on it, Mike has lost his first external body panel : (
I even video'd the event!


 My god I sound so upset . . .


I still dont understand why it ever seemed a good idea to bodge something that much...

Offroading videos and halloween costume pictures to come next time!

39. "If we're going to look at shit graphics, at least let us look at HOT shit graphics..."

Ollie commenting on my choice of womens 100m as appose to mens 100m on the PS2 game Athens Olympics 2004...

Its been so long since I posted, I cant really get my head round what to post! I think i'll keep it short, sweet and (potentially) interesting.

Here's my new single's CD cover for Motion:         (oh and its available for £2 if you want a copy!)

 Click to enlarge!

Named simply because its a song that meant to move you in any way it can, physically, mentally or emotionally.

Here is a link to it in its final production stages on Youtube!

Worth mentioning with the design, it was thought up in a day and made just with my camera, keyboard, fibre optic light and an office chair. Photoshop was only used to cut, paste and add text!

Since i've been back from uni i've been back working on my car again. For any of you who dont know its a 1966 Austin Mini Mk1 Deluxe . . . called mike . . . and he's robbing me of everything lol. Recently the boot floor was FINALLY welded in place and rust proofed.




Probably looks crap to most people... but if i showed you what it used to look like...?






Thats all for now. Bed time...
