about

These pieces were all composed and recorded by me between 1997and 2000, and were produced and performed entirely on an EMU-E6400 hardware sampler, with no computer or screens. Each part was recorded individually and performed back MPC style, by triggering the parts live on the sampler, a thing I was known for back in the day.
