Artist description Using only audio production software, American Motor Pageant (A.M.P.) arranges their original material from programmed samples and loops, and experiment in acoustic, world and electronic beats. "...the glow of the monitor reflects off their faces, the volume is loud and the ceiling fan is on high. The computer not only controls their actions, but it also obeys their commands. They hit the groove and ride it..."

Press Reviews "Squirming synthesizer riffs kick off Electro and House beats that are quickly subsumed by washes of Ambient keyboards. Modern Folk strumming drives down-tempo instrumentals in some places, while East Asian string sounds combine with Tribal rhythms in others." - Noah E./Listen. The album, NeW gOds, reached number 3 on the MP3.com Kansas Top 10 DAM CDs chart. NeW gOds received 3.5 (out of 5) Yaks from MP3YAK.com. That places it somewhere between "A fair chance you'll enjoy it" and "Highly recommended!" The song Agent J was the AMP3.com Pick Hit on 9/5/99. We have also seen tracks in the daily 100 in many of MP3.com’s global charts with the highest chart position of 1. Every song from NeW gOds and AMPII climbed the MP3.com Kansas charts to reach spots in the top 50. The song AfterSnow was also the featured Ambient Alternative song during August and September 1999. The songs Cross The Tracks and Jaku were featured MP3.com songs during July 2000.
