I'm a Scottish soundscaper, born in Glasgow in 1972 but now living in Edinburgh. I've been recording, in one incarnation or another, since the early 1990s. My most recent works are Avalonian CDR (Apollolaan Recordings), Ustrina CDR on (Afe Records) and Supernaturalist CD on (EE Tapes).
Forthcoming solo releases for 2009 include: Magdalena LP (Diophantine Discs) Arrival in Renfusa CDR (Bells Hill)
and others...
From 2000 to 2003, I curated the net label techNOH, which orchestrated more than 35 releases by electronic composers from all over the world. I've recorded a number of albums with Richard Youngs, the Radios series: a ten album set of releases focussed on a particular set of sound sources, processes and the notion of chiasmus. We are set to commence on Radios 9...
I also recorded for a number of years with fellow Glaswegian Alistair Crosbie as Inversion. Very little of that material saw the light of day, other than a few cassette releases, but we're slowly recording again, this time under own own names, and an album Disused was released by Alistair on his Lefthand Pressings imprint. A retrospective of our earlier work should be released at some point on Diophantine Solutions.
Additionally, I'm one third of a wonderful, improvising space/kraut/psych trio known as Space Weather, with Alistair and Andrew Paine. Our first album was released in June 2009.

Not meaning to spam, but you know how much it means to me! And sorry you cannot make it! Somehow I'll still get you to perform at a Diophantine event... sometime! ;-)
