about

These are jazz and electronic experiments from the early to mid-80's. I did all the instrument and voice tracks using multi-track recording techniques with sequencing, MIDI and multi-track tape.

These are broad examples of the different types of music I have enjoyed creating.

One of my jazz favorites is Today, my take on the old theme song from the NBC Today Show, 1980.

Two of my pieces, The Meditator and Robots, were composed as Laurie Anderson type story telling through music, you might find them fun.

The Meditator is a musical description of my personal meditation experience. It can also be an aid to learn how to meditate. It has a nice chant I created that is used for the bridge, called the I Am Chant,

Another unique piece is Robots, I created it after seeing the original 1984 Terminator movie. It has an interesting story line about our addiction to owning things. Robots is a take on a future where robots make everything we need and it is all free until the world is taken over by the dystopian Controllers and we become the robots.

Some of my earlier guitar compositions may not be of the highest audio quality as I did not always have access to good recording equipment.

My music style is to first create a foundation using cyclic, poly rhythmic music, then build several layers of improvised leads and rhythms that allows you to transcend time and space. ... more

Mary Lattimore has been exploring the possibilities of the harp for quite a while. Here she partners with Maxwell August Croy on the koto, and the result is compelling, a cross between avantgarde and new age. polinos
