Personal comment - the CD, "Gallimaufry" by Mark Automaton, a life-long composer/musician, is one of his best, containing tracks that are both disturbing and enlightening in equal measure; one of those albums that come to you over several plays, revealing insightful lyrics and sublime electronica, it is one of a large early career catalogue. To listen to Mark's latest output please visit him via the following link.
