I've been into MO since late 80's (Platinum being my first album) and seen him a few times. I was into all the electronic stuff in the 80's with MO up there with the likes of Ultravox, Jarre, Kraftwerk, Bill Nelson etc.... (my username comes from an Ultravox song called Quietmen... btw) today I like stuff like Arcade Fire, Jon Hopkins, Ulrich Snauss, Fever Ray, The Knife, Shearwater etc... Nowadays, I live in Wales (near Brecon) run a cafe/B&B with my partner and write music in the evenings on Sonar Producer (a few of my tracks I have put as topics on Fans Tracks). So would be good to communicate with other MO fans a like minded people. You can listen to my music on Soundcloud: Quietman on Soundcloud All the best quietman (Martin) Back to top

Are there any you don't like? Hmmmmm... With every group/artist I like there are some 'duff' tracks/albums and yes there are some MO tracks/CDs I like less than others . But that's my opinion of course... Let's start by favourite albums: Platinum Voyager Tubular Bells II Five Miles Out (mainly for Taurus 2) Songs Of Distant Earth Millenium Bell Light and Shade The ones I don't listen to so much are: amarok Incantations Back to top

It must be a record company marketer's nightmare! Back to top
