Born in Newton abbott, Devon, I first worked in Point studios in 1982.
By 1984 I was producing Savage Progress, a mixture of folk, ethnic and dark sounds( 300,000 sales in Germany)
By 1985 I was working in paradise studios, Europe's first totally computerised studio.


I met Coil around then and proceeded to supply some noise on the fairlight 2 for various early projects before doing a whole host on the Horse rotavator album .

Coil taught me to enjoy noise creation again, and this led to working with Psychic tv and a whole bunch of noise pioneers.

In 1989 I got one of the first UK Akai S1000 samplers
1990 I was co producing coil along with programming/ remixing on a vast amount of rave things .
At this time I remixed Monsoons "Ever so lonely", Adamskis "Killer", Hypnotone and the Flowmasters "Let it take control"
As far as I know, I was the first to use Time stretch abuse technique, on 1990's lsd album

I met some interesting characters like adamski, but on the whole the Highlight of this period was Co producing/ writing on Loves secret domain , a session I wish was captured on Video tape, How to make a record the easy way-No, How to have fun- Yes!!!

My work co-producing Pop will eat itself -led to a stint in Madrid Producing/mixing fangoria for EMI Madrid .

 

Then followed the COIL/Remix period, where we Remixed NineInchNails , Depeche and Various other things in our Dark style .

Created the crazy Chopped vocal for " gave up" using a technique which I'm still asked HOW? - so ludicrous I'll keep it to myself


Some of my writing at this period was " first dark ride" and "nasa arab" .

We also wrote baby food, Stolen and contaminated songs and The first elph/eskaton projects .

Also Invited with coil to write on Derek Jarman's film Blue where we wrote a tune of melting disco

In 1995 I re processed the BLD songs and while mixing at my home studio came up with the filtered/re sampled sound used on the album,
That is what you hear all over Red skeletons, stone Circular .

In 1996 we Traveled over to Trent Reznors studio in New Orleans to complete the long awaited " backwards " album for Coil.

Once finished I proceeded to Complete my project " sub sonic Commune", which I finished in 1998, to be followed by a couple of years fighting the Publisher for my advance.

I then took a much needed break working in Music till 2002 when re acquainted with coil I proceeded to Write Unearthly red with Peter Christopherson.

Mixing " Remote viewer" also took place at this time.

Then I entered the phase of beginning the album " a Nature of Nonsense" also worth a listen is sensimilla dreams album

2006/2007 Saw me spend a year in asia where Christophersson and I wrote music for Black antlers, absynthe, remote viewer update and threshold house boys choir also coming is moons milk update
