I am an ex NYC musician who is looking for an experimental project that includes aspects of theater, special effects and a full surreal audio experience. I'm looking for ANY type of instrument player who wants to explore and experiment (and perform) a mind-blowing audio experience - to improvise and create soundscapes and a full on EXPERIENCE of recording and performance. Push the envelope of music! Create art - not pop...

Hold On To The Furniture And The Room Won't Spin
Hold On To The Furniture And The Room Won't Spin Track number: 1 Year: 1997 Album: J-PET: A Sacred Maze Of Dreams, Vol. 2 Genre: Electronic
A short piece from two six-hour performances at a Korean dance club in New York City. A day before the performance, the city pulled the club's cabaret liscense... which to Rudy's police meant no dancing - not even any swaying in time to the music. I dumped all of the electronica danciness from "set list and performed two long, experimental, completely improvisational sets (one each night). This is not the best five minutes from the performance, but it is one that is small enough to add here.
