InfluencesDeserts, mountains, rivers, clouds, the night sky, harbors, fog, insects, birds, intense meteorological phenomena, humid places, lonely backroads, Java, Sumatra, Laos
Sounds Like"Greinke's efforts range from tranquil to unsettled, from some truly beautifully written passages realized with cello and piano, to intricate, heavily treated and nearly atonal soundscapes that remain very musical, refusing to degenerate into sound." (e/i)... "Exquisite, subtle, timeless, intimate, organic, and melancholic. The way he incorporates synth pads, resonant strings, chimes, and piano into such finely honed compositions is truly a marvel to hear." (Outburn)... "Take a black and white film camera. Find a landscape rimmed with an early snow--open plains, a lonely country road, a Japanese garden, a desolate urban/industrial center. Pan across it in almost imperceptibly slow motion, time slowed to a crawl. Let the images linger--the cold depths of grey snow, an intermittent glint of misplaced sunlight on icy crystals, the slovenly dance of wind-blown snow. When you've got all that committed to film, overlay it with Jeff Greinke's Winter Light. It will match perfectly" (Hypnagogue)...

   About Jeff Greinke
New Release "Virga" October 13, 2009 Lotuspike................ Jeff Greinke is a musician, composer, performer, sound sculptor, and visual artist who is known worldwide for his unique sound. Through a highly developed process of layering, Jeff composes and performs music rich in texture, depth, mood, and subtle detail. Using various acoustic and electronic instruments, found sounds, and extended studio techniques, Jeff sculpts sound worlds that conjure a strong sense of place, hovering somewhere between the exotic and the familiar............................ Jeff Greinke began composing and performing music in 1980 while studying meteorology at Pennsylvania State University. After moving to Seattle in 1982, Jeff and composer R. Angus formed the production company and recording label, INTREPID, through which they released their first collaborative recording "Night and Fog," and produced Jeff's first LP, "Cities in Fog." He has since released over twenty other recordings on various U.S. and European labels. His most recent work is titled "Virga," released in October 2009 on Lotuspike. Jeff's music can also be heard on numerous compilation recordings. He has composed music for film, video, dance, theatre, radio, and art installations. His music was used as the soundtrack for the trailer of Ron Howard's film "The Missing." Jeff has toured extensively throughout the United States and Europe and has performed in China, Canada, and Mexico. He has also been a member of numerous ensembles and is founder of the group LAND, featuring Lesli Dalaba (trumpet), Dennis Rea (guitar), Bill Rieflin (drums), and Fred Chalenor (bass). LAND toured China in 1996, which included playing the prestigious Beijing International Jazz Festival. They have released three albums. Jeff has also collaborated with Sky Cries Mary vocalist Anisa Romero in a project called Hana. In April 2001 they released their second album titled "Omen." Jeff currently resides in Tucson Arizona with his wife Isabel Amorous.
