Helicopter Quartet grew out in 2012 of the ashes of Leeds, United Kingdom-based band Catscans. They have been free to explore textures and minimalist structures in careful detail and have come up with something that is more than simply ambient.

The original lineup:

Michael Capstick - guitars, bass guitar;
Christine Caulfield - violin, synthesizers.
