(perfect for meditation and to relax the mind, just close your eyes and follow the sound, forget any worry or distractions during that time) Track 3 recommended.

This album consists of a set of 10 works that focus on repetition and change. The pieces evolve mostly through the active perception of the listener. Saccades and oto-acoustic emissions are evidence that perception is far from passive reception. The transmitting ear determines much about what it takes in.  [Anthony Moore, Arles, November 2018]

He moved to Hamburg, Germany in 1970 where he continued experimenting with sound and structure, working closely with many underground film makers.

In 1971 Polygram recorded three albums of his work, "Pieces from the Cloudland Ballroom", "Secrets of the Blue Bag" and "Reed, Whistle & Sticks", for voices, strings, woodwind and percussion, produced by Uwe Nettelbeck. In 1972 he formed the group Slapp Happy with Dagmar Krause and Peter Blegvad.

He has composed numerous music pieces, sound installations, songs and film compositions which received international prizes; co-writer with Pink Floyd during the recording of three of their albums working on concepts, sounds and lyrics; composer of the television opera "Camera", a commissioned work from Channel 4.
