About Us
Markk W. Roberts, was born in Rochester Minnesota in 1963 at St. Mary's Hospital. I grew up in Rochester playing my first musical instruments around age 7 when I received a guitar for Christmas from my mother, she also taught me to play the piano learning duet's around this same time. I'd learn both upper and lower parts as I was just fascinated about how the sounds blended together, that may be why I love very complex orchestrated sequential pieces in the likes of Tangerine Dream, and Redshift and many others. I first started touring in a rock band in 1982, I was 19 years old and it was certainly a "learning" experience. I have been living in Scottsdale, Arizona for the past 17 years on and off and really do love it here, drop me a note and we'll get together for some espresso!
What We Do
What "I" do is make music with all my synthesizers, keyboards, gadgets and effects. I am currently working on a solo CD/DVD that will showcase the variety of styles and influences I have had over the past 20 years of my musical career. I would really like to perform live again sometime in the near future, as it is still the best way to intimately connect directly with a listener. I have always envisioned a show similar to Jean Michel Jarre's show he did in Moscow, and the use of laser light for many parts of the show to accentuate the music as it is played. As I mentioned above many of my influences are artist such as: Tangerine Dream, Christopher Franke, Redshift, Mark Shreeve, Free System Projekt. I will have some "new" music clips here from the new Modcan, Macbeth Studio Systems M5N, and Arturia CS-80V, Prophet-V, and JP-8V synthesizers in the very near future. Stay tuned...
