One of New Zealand's leading exponents of sound art, Michael Morley first began producing sounds in the mid 1980s, both in collaboration with Bruce Russell and with experimental band Wreck Small Speakers on Expensive Stereos. In 1987 he formed The Dead C with Russell and Robbie Yeats; the band's unique, often spontaneous, approach to traditional rock instruments has since come to be cherished by fans around the world. Morley has also performed as a solo artist and collaboratively under the guise of Gate. In these solo pieces he explores the melodic and rhythmic charm of overdriven, distorted keyboards, digitally enhanced recordings and a drum machine.
