In February, I played two sets at Cafe Gummo in Thornbury for the launch of the new Clan Analogue compilation Distance: Sounds for an Empty Space. First up I joined Jennifer Lea for a two iPads and guitar set, then later in the evening played with Matt Adair as City Frequencies, performing an extended version of our track on the compilation.
Check out this excellent collection of drone music on the Clan Analogue website. Also available in cassette format!

My twenty-five year career as a musician covers composition, performance and teaching, with a focus on electronic music and sound art.
I have also been known as Nick Fakeman, n-Entropy, Professor Entropy and Nicholas Bates at various times in my career.
Musical projects have included Tiatto, Random Acts of Elevator Music, Reductionist, Continuum, The Entwined and Space Is Ace, guest appearances with Winduptoys, Philosophy of Sound and Re-Sound and various production credits. I have also worked on several sound installation projects, including City Frequencies, Cafe Voyeur and Bush Resonance. Over the last ten years I have managed the Clan Analogue record label.
My professional interests include:
• Teaching and training
• Music composition and performance
• Independent art project administration
Currently I am employed as an Audio Lecturer at SAE Institute. This blog will be a forum to write about various things that interest me, mainly in the field of music but potentially further afield, depending on what grabs my attention.
