They are all now available as digital downloads from Bandcamp, as is TechnoFuture, a collection of unreleased recordings from around 1989/1990. Four cassette albums were released in very small quantities, mainly sold at UK Electronica and other events. Philip Glass, Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Karlheinz Stockhausen Mike Oldfield, Can, Gong, Camel, ELP, Hawkwind, Rick Wakeman Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, John Foxx, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Telex, Depeche Mode, Human League, Blancmange, Cabaret Voltaire, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Robert Marlow, Propaganda, Pet Shop Boys A list of my influences would include most of the obvious names: I try not to get tied down to any one style, but at heart I will always be a fan of the ‘Berlin School’ of cosmic synthesizer music and the ‘Dusseldorf School’ of techno-pop. Now it’s easy to make music available for download, I’m content to do that, but I may make limited edition CDs available with some extra material. I’ve done some live performances, some commercial work, and have released four cassette albums, but I never took the obvious step of releasing CDs because I didn’t see any commercial potential in them. I started experimenting with making my own music in the '80s, and have never let a complete lack of performance skills stop me playing with synthesizers, sequencers, effects and recording systems.
Since then I have always found synthesized sounds or musique concrete more interesting than conventional performances.
M y interest in electronic music was probably sparked by the Doctor Who theme by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
