Phillip Greenlief - saxophone, composer
Darren Johnston - trumpet, composer

Steve Adams and John Hanes came together to form their laptop electronics duo after extensive careers in other areas of music. Steve is a renowned saxophonist and long-time member of the Rova Saxophone Quartet. John is a widely respected drummer, active in jazz, rock, blues and experimental music. Both came to electronic music as part of their ongoing search for new approaches to their music. When they first started making electronic music together, they found that their approaches fit together effortlessly. Their aesthetic shows the influence of their broad range of musical experience, so there is no area or genre of music that they avoid.
