Who is this guy?

​​I began my long, strange trip as an ambient musician in 1984: my first outing was an 8-piece suite called "A Piece Of The Desert", which I performed at St. Mark's Project and The Knitting Factory in NYC.  Since that time, I have released 16 albums on New Franklin/Orbiting Orion Records, as well as a musical "trilogy" of recordings with the ambient ensemble Elysium.

 

I am offically listed in the Encyclopedia of Electronic Music, where curator Artemi Pugachov described my work as "the perfect programming of sounds", and praised "the special mood of the compositions, that creates a sense of mystery and reflection."

 

My work has also been hailed by many musicians, including: bassist Mike Watt, synthesists David Borden and Steve Drews (from groundbreaking electronic group, Mother Mallard's Portable Masterpiece Co.),  multi-instrumentalist Lisa Germano, as well as ambient colleagues ranging from Scott Solter and Gareth Whittock to William Edge and Robert Scott Thompson.  I play synthesizers, percussion, piano and ambient guitar.  You can hear my music on ambient radio station SomaFm, Soundcloud, and Spotify.
