After leaving 4AD-signed 80’s new wave act Clan Of Xymox in 1990, Nooten has never looked back, refining his skill in crafting heart-wrenchingly gorgeous nu-ambient, neo-classical instrumentals, using nothing more than a lap top and sample libraries. His work received critical acclaim throughout the musical world without Nooten ever compromising his well-defined, particular specialism: weaving extended instrumental pieces that embody strong emotional pathos and refined delicacy at the same time.
