Profile Information

About Me:

Music has kept me sane in times of adversity and I am sure my only hope of enlightenment is through realising the empty nature of sound.

I have a decent ambient/industrial/experimental electronica collection (including some collectors' items), sprinkled with some 'post-rock', shoegaze, crossover jazz and death/doom metal (a current fave genre). Also have a classical collection from all eras.

Best album(s) of all time?

My top 10 (in no particular order):

Autechre - Confield
Boards of Canada - Geogaddi
The Fireman - Rushes (Sir Paul McCartney electronica side-project)
Stars of the Lid - Tired sounds of...
Spooky - Found sound
Zen Paradox - Eternal brainwave
Steve Roach - The magnificent void
Nurse With Wound - Sugar fish drink
Robert Rich - A troubled resting place
Zoviet France - Shouting at the ground

Favorite artist(s)?

Zoviet France
Robert Rich
Steve Roach
Stars of the Lid
Nurse With Wound
Rapoon
Susumu Yokota
Miles Davis (Bitches Brew/Live-Evil period)

Are you a musician? What instrument do you play? Type of music?

Have dabbled with playing (electric) piano in the past. At the time, I was learning kids tunes at 38-yo, while my 12-yo daughter was playing classical pieces! Have played Tibetan singing bowls, cymbals, rocks and sticks with the musical director of Samsara Meditation Ensemble (based in the US and Nepal), while studying Buddhism in Nepal. About to work on some 'laptop-based' electronica with a friend who has the hardware to create it. Interested in morphing Tibetan Buddhist chanting and singing bowl sounds into Doom Metal samples.
