A new group featuring music based in large part on classical music samples. Incorporating live video and audio manipulation, veering from ambient impressionism to Pink Floyd-like jams and some aggressive improvisations...

We have recorded basics for an album, and are currently working on additional tracks and mixing with producer/mixer Peter Katis. We have picked up a little press, and are playing a few choice shows in NYC and beyond.
