Mainstream Termination Research

...against the ever flowing mainstream...

About Me

After nameless sequencing-projects MTR was founded in fall 2004, with the first ambient-psi-experience "Aetherfront". As an open source composing pool, offside the mainstream, also several side projects like TAoshum and other collaborations will be developed in future. MTR acts as progressive counterbalance to the blunted commercial-pop-scene and MTV-generation. The primary fields of function are: improvisation, de/composition, active-music-recycling, resampling and traditional instruments.
