New Zealander Antony Milton has been making records, exhibiting sound installations and performing live under various nom de plumes (A.M, The Nether Dawn, Paintings of Windows, Mrtyu etc) since the early 1990s. He is also the curator of the PseudoArcana record label.
A recurring theme in Milton's work is an investigation of 'place' and 'presence' and the ways in which these function within the representational realm of recorded sound. With releases on underground labels such as Jewelled Antler, Last Visible Dog and Celebrate Psi Phenomenon Milton's work is situated at some weird junction between electroacoustic composition, folk music, and the more psychedelic end of the 'noise' spectrum...
Using predominantly analogue sources (tape loops, field recordings, amplified resonant objects, voice and guitar) Milton's performances have a high degree of intimacy and commonly range from the gestural and nuanced through to the visceral and ecstatic.

** invisible bees "1st" cd-r ** A chance meeting in a haunted fruit cellar. Instruments were gathered and tuned to the november wind, recording continued until the snow melted and the infant sun exploded into a million burning eyes. invisible bees are a primitive-psych-folk-duo united in their aim to send time out of joint. The insect ritual is darkly hypnotic-droney-buzzy-with primitive saz-warm accordion swells -minimal guitar motifs-strummed violin-tolling bells- bowed metal and devotional vocals. This could be the soundtrack to Joseph Conrad's 'Heart Of Darkness'- "Do you see him? Do you see the story? Do you see anything? It seems I am trying to tell you a dream"- invisible bees. **Edition of 50, hand-made gatefold painted covers with cloth seams**
