Through a highly developed process of layering, Jeff composes and performs music rich in texture, depth, mood and subtle detail. Using various acoustic and electronic instruments, found sounds and extended studio techniques, Jeff sculpts soundworlds that conjure a strong sense of place, hovering somewhere between the exotic and the familiar.
      QUOTES regarding Jeff's recording: "This music has a sense of mystery and danger that is absolutely compelling.
      OPTION: "Jeff Greinke's environmental soundscapes are impressions of an inner space wholly different from that of any other electronic composer I can think of."
      NEW YORK REVIEW OF RECORDS: "His music finds just the right balance between ambience, suspense, and evocation."
      AUDION: "Greinke continues to prove himself as one of our finest and most important composers and sound artists. His style has encompassed ambient industrial soundscapes, fourth-world exoticism and ambient washes, and he displays a magnificent ability to create compelling, sensual, tangible textures, sonorities, moods, and atmospheres."
