about

These are pieces written by me, John Mark Sherlock, for the composers' collective/ensemble I co-founded with eldritch Priest in the early 2000s. Some were for the three day "festivettes" (3 night festivals) and others for solo shows in the years after. The works all were for open instrumentation and thusly I am not entirely certain who was playing what on the larger ensemble pieces. I will endeavour to uncover that information. I was playing an A100 Hammond organ and "cloud chamber" bowl on salvage/wrecking. I believe I was playing Rhodes 88 on final approach (to lessness). I want to thank all of my neither/nor comrades here because those were truly wonderful times.
