Seattle-based artist Marc Barreca has been producing strange, otherworldly music since the 1970s. His work blends a variety of techniques and audio sources, ranging from field recordings and acoustic instruments to digital loops and MAX/MSP processing, resulting in surrealist soundscapes that are often too complex or busy to merely categorize as ambient music.

During the late 1970s, he began releasing experimental cassettes as a solo artist as well as a member of the kosmische-inspired trio Young Scientist. Barreca released an LP titled Twilight in 1980, and participated in the avant-funk/rock collective Savant, but after the mid-'80s he largely abandoned music in order to focus on his career as a bankruptcy lawyer, and later as a judge. He resumed productivity during the 21st century, releasing albums such as 2015's Beneath the Mirrored Surface in addition to several collaborations with K. Leimer. Read more on Last.fm.
