WWW.AMPEXMUSIC.COM | | | | | AMPex is the creative instrumentation, audio sampling mish-mash and collaborative music works of Portland, OR beat smith, dj, guitarist, idea man/producer Mr. M. Bradford Conner. No releases are currently available because Mr. Conner is real lazy. History Starting his musical exploration as a self taught guitarist, Mr. Conner spent many years toning his skills in small groups. Originally influenced by the sounds of acid-blues rock, he discredited the idea of computers as a means of making music. After years of soaking in influences from the variety of art and musical styles around him in the Pacific NW, he developed a taste for the intelligent ingenuity of instrumental jazz, the progressive flow and delivery of hip hop and the experimental thought-provoking sounds of electronica.
