Sounds Like
Earlier material up to Breed (1994) consists of the powerful rhythms and strong melodies of Mark Shreeve, the interweaving sequences of early 1980's Tangerine Dream, Jarre-like textures and atmospheres, Front 242-style sampling, and the occasional touch of Startled Insects. More recent material (2005 onwards) is more influenced by ambient techno / berlin school, but with a lot more structure and direction than you'd normally find there.
Corporation was created by Adam Britton and Iain Lowe in 1991. Our aim was simply to create the kind of upbeat, melodic electronic music that we wanted to listen to. If anyone else liked it, all the better. We produced three albums, the last being Breed in 1994, and then went our separate ways as our lives did. Then in 2005, Adam resurrected the project with new ideas and inspiration. Although Adam's musical influences have evolved over time, the same philosophy applies to the project: produce music that makes you hit the "repeat" button time after time, even if it's only a tiny speck of the Earth's population that does so.
Adam lives and works in Australia on large, toothy reptiles (crocodilian.com). He runs a consulting company with his wife Erin, and besides research and consulting work on crocodiles they also produce films and multimedia projects. Adam hopes to finish a new Corporation album before he loses any fingers.

I hope you don't mind me taking this opportunity to let you know that produced a brand new music track in 5.1 SURROUND which is now available to download from my web site, for free, in WMA (Windows Media Audio v10) and in AC3 (Dolby Digital) surround music format. The track is a 14-minute ambient rock space journey that sounds pretty cool in surround audio, and I hope you'll enjoy it!
Download the track "Voyager" in 5.1 surround from my free surround music page: www.lynnemusic.com/surround.html
PS, you can also hear it in regular stereo format (no surround speaker system required for that) on my blog: www.lynnemusic.com/blog
Seeing as how we are MySpace friends, I just wanted to let you know that I have released a new CD today, called "Undercover". I composed and produced it together with my good buddy Adam Skorupa. It's a 14-track CD with Spy/Thriller/Crime soundtrack type music. You can listen to the whole CD from start to finish on this page on my site: http://www.lynnemusic.com/undercover.html
So anyway, I hope you'll enjoy it :-) and please tell your friends.
It's nice to know I'm not alone in the 80's making awful music with little Casios. The difference is I have my 1986 efforts online as mp3s. Just head to my strellis.com website and click on the 1986 links - LOL
