Instrumental Music 1

by Craig Fortnam

supported by

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) Craig Fortnam is well known for being the creative mastermind behind names like "Shrubbies", "North Sea Radio Orchestra", "Arch Garrison", and, well, "Craig Fortnam", of course. He's from the big family of musicians and composers revolving around the cult band "Cardiacs", all of which share some undeniable and hard-to-describe common quality in their songwriting. "Instrumental Music 1" is quite some unspecific title for the wide range of unique avantgarde tracks he has released only recently. Favorite track: Dicot.

Canterbury Another absolute masterpiece by Craig Fortnam, who will be remembered as one of the most creative and important composers of the 21st century (especially considering his prolificness). We thank you for making our lives more meaningful.
