Originally working professionally in commercial music, he formed the improvising group, The Acme Quartet in the late 1970's & moved away from the commercial arena. He studied harmony & counterpoint with composer John South. He has worked with, amongst others: John Stevens, God, Rhys Chatham, Mass, Bill Fay, Shoji Hano, Bernhard Gunter, Masayoshi Urabe, Aufgehoben. Known for his dense contrapuntal style, pioneering use of stereo guitar & more recently integrating extra-musical influences (such as birdsong, sound associated with computer generated music etc) into his musical language; these being realised without the aid of effects of any kind.
