Carl Martin aka Transient has been producing electronic music since 1994 and non-electronic music since his young years. Through the local BBS scene he was introduced to tracking software, and is still using trackers as his basic composition tool to this day (Renoise) He has a discography spanning more than 50 releases and hundreds and hundreds of tracks in a multitude of genres. Aside from a load of netlabel and some commericial releases Transient runs 'Noisy Vagabond', a web site to distribute his 'extra material' like mini-albums made with a Palm handheld (Bhajis Loops) and other oddities, and his twisted artwork.
