I've been making electronic music since I bought my first synth (a Juno-60) and a Tascam 4-track way back in about 1986. I work with singer-songwriters and performance artists, and compose for modern dance and theatre. The pieces here represent recent electronic instrumentals, where I’m exploring/experimenting/having fun with 'pop' music production techniques and composition. I currently live in Tokyo, and am interested in collaborating with other artists. You can hear my PhD compositions here: https://soundcloud.com/mphorrocks
