In 1984 Andrew Poppy was signed to Trevor Horn's ZTT Records as an artist, composer and record producer; having previously studied with John Cage, performed Philip Glass, made a couple of record for an obscure European label, and been an arranger for Matt Johnson, Psychic TV and others.

In 2018 he continues to write, perform and record.

The press say:

“Bewitching, beautifully crafted and highly addictive.” The Wire

“Gloriously abundant in cascading cycles of notes and noises” The Guardian

"The finest products of the minimalist mentality - Reich's ‘Music for 18 Musicians’, Riley’s
exquisitely impure undertakings, Glenn Branca's tumultuous The Ascension - rise above the cold consideration of mechanics and draws the listener into the realms of ecstasy. Cadenza is the track in question, a mesmerising feature for two pianos that rise and dip like a tea clipper in a high wind. The effect is breath-taking; it’s superb enough to make me look forward with optimism to future releases". Melody Maker
