Artist description Than music is experimental and beat driven. We use both original percussion lines as well as sampled and reprocessed lines. We leaned toward harder industrial dance and noise with our earlier tracks, however we are swinging all the way to atmospheric and trance with our current endeavours. Than is compared by some members and friends to other jam session based bands in that many people and musicians people wander in and out of the project, as intended. Than is beginnning to enter the realms of analog production and performance, though until now we have been primarily home studio based.Than has a strong influence from efesar, fs75, and soulwell (also local to ABQ), who also have song postings here @ mp3.com
