THOMAS LEHN & MARCUS SCHMICKLER
Thomas Lehn and Marcus Schmickler are both well-known electroacoustic 
musicians from Cologne, but they come from very different backgrounds. 
Lehn is from the world of improvisation, while Schmickler's previous 
work lies predominantly in the world of studio production. Lehn is best 
known for the CD projects Tom and Gerry (Erstwhile), Konk Pack-Big Deep 
(Grob), and e-rax-Live at the BIMhuis 1999 (X-Or), as well as for his 
consistently superb performances on the European festival circuit. 
Schmickler has been involved with numerous projects, including the 
seminal collective Kontakta (Odd Size). As a solo artist, Schmickler 
has created important works such as Wabi Sabi (A-Musik), as well as 
three CDs under the name Pluramon, all on Mille Plateaux, including the 
just released remix project Bit Sand Riders. He's also worked 
extensively in the house and techno scenes, both on his own and with 
musicians such as Thomas Brinkmann and Cristian Vogel.

TIM BARNES & SEAN MEEHAN
Tim Barnes is a sound designer, percussionist, composer, archivist, and 
record label operator living in NYC. His gesturalistic drumming style 
reaches for the pause in music through textural possibilities, as well 
as pointillist punctuations.  He has performed solo and group works in 
Japan and in the U.S. with Jim O'Rourke, Ikue Mori, Toshimaru Nakamura, 
Nagisa Nite, John Zorn, Okkyung Lee, and Neil Michael Hagerty (to name 
a few). Sean Meehan became musically active in the late 80s at the 
amica bunker series for improvised music which was then housed at abc 
no rio in NYC. Meehan's interest in improvisation and collaboration has 
taken him around the world where he has performed solo and with local 
artists ranging from players of folk instruments to computer artist to 
avant-garde flower arrangers. He has performed throughout North and 
South America, Asia and Eastern Europe.
