About Me


Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Image Hosting

Geigertek was created in the late Summer of 2006, a collaboration between German programmer/producer Conrad Geiger and musician/programmer, Neil Fellowes, and is a studio project dedicated to the creation of electronic and computer generated music, using synthesizers, computers, sound processors and production techniques.

The first Geigertek album is to be released in 2008 through the AD Music label and is called "The Garden".Conrad Geiger left the ranks of Geigertek in the Autumn of 2007, returning to his native Germany, entrusting the future of the Geigertek project to Neil Fellowes who will continue to move the music forward.

The music of Geigertek is written, recorded and produced using a contemporary digital virtual studio, located in the East Anglian city of Norwich in the United Kingdom.

Now playing: Geigertek
