Santa Rosa, Fire! No through road, Lady Strangelove, Mr Wednesday, Poly & the Statics, My sister the cop, The Kill Girls, Swords, Sidewalks, Kytes of Omar, The Amcats, Mona Lisa Overdrive, Russia, Swords, Femme Fatales, Straight to Video, Mad Shapes, Tyger Tyger, The Warsaw flowers, Zeta, Antony of the future, The Battery Kids, Lumonics, Brillig and Leigh Stardust...please feel free to contact me about my studio or anything musical or just a friendly chat...cheers, Matt Hills

While we're at it...Gil Norton (my all time favourite producer) Alan Moulder and Kevin Shields...Oh and here's some of my hero's in action...
