ABOUT

Hi there, my name is Ben and I am a Brooklyn native. I am looking for like-minded synth-heads interested in creating cinematic music inspired by the likes of Brian Eno, Tangerine Dream, Robert Fripp, and Kraftwerk with a desire for large-scale pieces that conjure images of Dyson Spheres, black holes, and chasing Replicants down neon-lit, rain-soaked streets.

I am an experienced musician and media composer hoping to find 1-2 more musicians interested in a playful mixture of program music with intentional structures via sequences mixed with improvisation, loops, vocoder work, and generative elements.

I am open to this being both a studio and live project.
