Details:
To me experimental means...you never heard anything quite like it. I'm guessing "Crazy Music" will fill the bill. These are some favorites of my own compositions, and also ones many people find difficult. The fact that you are poking around in this genre however, inclines me to think that you might enjoy these tunes. They were created with traditional instruments, voice and re-engineered electronics, and are all over and off the map stylistically. I don't really think there is any crazy music - but once you elevate sound itself to a level equal with melody, harmony and rhythm you've got some interesting musical possibilities - and a marketing problem! Who cares. I made this music because I had to, and for the pleasure of anyone who can hear it.

p.s. I take it back, "Prescription Only Music" is definitely crazy !

Originally from N.Y. I have been active in the Free-Jazz and general weird music scenes mostly in Texas and Colorado for some time, playing drums, guitar and live electronics. Early music experience includes Scottish drumming, studying bass, piano and flute; in more recent years recorded/played with trumpet player Dennis Gonzalez and played/recorded/toured with the inimitable, multi-reed player Jack Wright. A sprinkling of pit playing, country gigs, accompanying a trick bicycle riding act, etc. etc... you get the picture.
I hope you have some fun with my music.

And, I recommend using headphones or enough volume to hear the upper harmonic play, especially in the drone pieces.
