Kraus

I play guitar, drums, a home-made synthesizer, organ, and tape-loops. I live in Auckland, New Zealand. I enjoy medieval and Renaissance music, Japanese traditional music, modernism, psychedelic music, electronic music 1950s-70s and rock and pop of the same era. I try to make my music available for free when I can. Yes I am some kind of communist.

I played drums in The Murdering Monsters and The Aesthetics. I co-founded and named The Futurians in 2001, and played on their first album "!Blastov!". I am currently in these two-piece bands: Pouffe with Matthew Plunkett, The Maltese Falcons with Duckling Monster of The Futurians, and Olympus with Stefan Neville.
