About

At the moment tourmaline hum are:
Simon Lewry
Steve Tree
Richard Zarywacz

In the 1980s we were 'Except Buses'. We returned to public music production in 2012 after a 23 year hiatus. Times have changed since the days of running Steinburg Pro12 on an AtariST1020!

Our releases explore many genres from retro synth to ambient soundsculpture, and even classical.
Some can be purchased in handy bitesized chunks, check out the links.

tourmaline hum are associated with The Committee for Sonic Research. TCFSR
As we work through our back catalogue some tracks from the 'Except Buses' days in the 1980s will appear on TCFSR.
Steve Tree releases personal musings here https://soundcloud.com/steve-tree-1

Czech animator Barbora Hermanová has used our track 'The Banality of Progress' as the soundtrack to her short film 'Eat Meat?'. http://vimeo.com/56644243
