Selling consistently for 24 years isn’t bad, so I’m pleased to announce a new run of my 2002 CD “Sequencer Loops” (with new artwork), popular perhaps because of the more than 25 synthesizers featured from Access, Akai, Moog Music, Korg, Roland, Ensoniq, plus rarities the CRB Diamond VocoStrings, ETI Transcendent 2000, the huge Yamaha EX1 and others. It’s probably the sequencerest album you’ve ever heard – whatever you’re expecting next, it’s usually another sequencer pattern, and with some guitar added (and opening with a nice vocoder poem in the style of “Cyclone”) the album appeals equally to fans of TANGERINE DREAM, Klaus Schulze, Jean-Michel Jarre, Vangelis, PINK FLOYD and more. The result is being described as sounding like “Tangerine Dream meets Hawkwind”, or “Jean-Michel Jarre jamming with Carlos Santana”. The technology used to achieve this groundbreaking style involves everything from 20-year-old kit-built synthesizers to the massive triple keyboard yamaha ex1, via computers, samplers and exotic rhythm machines. Epic tracks with running times from 4 up to more than 10 minutes typically open with multiple analog sequencers, overlaid with electric and acoustic guitars, samples, vocoders or recorded voices. In another indication of the range of styles covered, the cd is dedicated to the memories of Camel keyboardist Peter Bardens, whose melodic minimoog playing particularly was an early influence on mark’s style, and of legendary can guitarist Michael Karoli.
