		Martin used a Braun tape deck which had (if I recall correctly) 2 speeds, probably.
		When we approached Bob Weston to fill Martin's position, we told him he could use current digital technology (which accomplishes Martin's antics in an easier fashion).
		Bob learned Martin's parts as a starting point, but has added alot of his own gestures, especially in the new songs.

	Hawaii Supreme Court Case No. 23285 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Swope as an arbitrator." The April 9, 1990 letter gave Wolff further pause, because the letter referred to provisions in the Lease relating to whether, for purposes of ascertaining the fair market value of the subject property, the building should be included in the arbitrator's determination of the basic annual rent for the property.
		Swope had any familiarity with the lease provisions on this lease" prior to the arbitration proceeding, particularly in light of the fact that the inclusion of the building in the arbitrators' valuation of the property was a matter of dispute among the parties.
		Swope also rejected the trustees' argument that the basic annual rent should be reopened every five years with incremental rent increases, presumably because such a request was in contravention to the express terms of the Lease, which provided for an initial ten-year rent period and three fifteen-year rent periods thereafter.

	Mission of Burma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Miller contacted his friend Martin Swope, with whom he had earlier written some John Cage and Karlheinz Stockhausen-inspired pieces for piano and tape.
		Swope's role evolved quickly until he was an integral part of the group, receiving equal credit on albums; in addition to tape effects (both in the studio and in live performances, as documented on The Horrible Truth About Burma) Swope acted as the group's live audio engineer.
		Miller and Swope then went on to form the quieter Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic, which they both left in the 90s, Miller to produce several solo efforts and film scores, and Swope to semi-reclusion in Hawaii.

	In re Arbitration between: Daiichi Hawaii Real Estate Corporation v. Lichter
		Swope explained that, at the time of his initial disclosure, he had been told by CSFandW that the relevant files no longer existed, and, therefore, that he was forced to rely on his memory in disclosing his prior relationships with Dr. Lichter and any Lichter- or trustees-related individuals or entities.
		Swope was [Dr. Lichter's and the trustees'] attorney." In substance, the trustees argued that Swope's disclosure set forth in the SA placed Daiichi on notice of Swope's relationship with Dr. Lichter and the trustees.
		Swope's representations included: (1) the drafting of a voting trust agreement for a corporation of which Dr. Lichter and his wife were shareholders; (2) the representation Dr.

		Swope's official label was "tape manipulator." Listeners would often be mystified by the sound they heard from the other three gentleman, because it was so thick and it often magically looped.
		This was Swope's doing; he added a dimension to their sound that blew away most bands of their day and he anticipated the electronic revolution whose prime would come in the 90s and 2000s.
		martin swope had declined the invitation to play with the band again, so i wondered what they would do without a tape guy and how they would sound.

		During Mission of Burma's tenure, Swope joined MoB singer/guitarist Roger Miller in the latter's instrumental side project Birdsongs of the Mesozoic.
		Swope contributed a handful of original compositions to the Birdsongs catalog, most notably "The Tyger" (once performed by Mission of Burma).
		When MoB reformed in 2002, Swope declined the invitation to rejoin his former bandmates; Bob Weston (of Shellac) took Swope's place at the reel to reel machine.

	Mission Impossible
		The pioneering blend of avant-rock noise and tense melodicism that Conley, guitarist Roger Miller, drummer Peter Prescott, and tape-loop manipulator Martin Swope brought to the post-punk frontier remains as bracing today as it was almost two decades ago.
		Swope moved into an apartment in Brighton with Miller and Conley and began to intrigue the pair with the tape loops he was experimenting with -- tape loops that would soon bring a distinctive avant edge to the Mission Of Burma sound.
		Swope was ahead of his time with the tape-loop experiments -- Miller remembers how early audiences were often confused by Burma's all-encompassing din.

		Miller contacted his fellow Ann Arbor refugee Martin Swope, with whom he had earlier written some John Cage and Karlheinz Stockhausen-inspired pieces for piano and tape.
		Swope was immediately enlisted as the group's live audio engineer and occasional tape-effects artist (and hence "auxiliary member").
		Miller and Swope then turned their attention to their side project, the quieter Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic (cofounded with their old friend Lindgren), which they both left in the '90s, Miller to produce several solo efforts and film scores, and Swope to semi-reclusion in Hawaii.

	Mission of Burma
		Mission of Burma was an influential post-punk band from Boston (1979-1983), formed by guitarist/singer Roger Miller, bass guitarist/singer Clint Conley, drummer Peter Prescott, and Martin Swope, who acted as audio engineer and added occasional tape loop effects.
		Mission Of Burma were one of the earliest groups to prefigure the sound of modern alternative rock, fusing hardcore punk, post punk and melody into some of the most influential music to come out of the American punk scene.
		Roger Miller and Martin Swope later formed Birdsongs of the Messozoic.

		It was however the addition of Martin Swope, Miller's Ann Arbor pal, that added the truly transformational element to the band.
		Swope had been playing around with tape loops, and when he moved to Brighton to shack up with Clint and Roger they were intrigued by the noises he was creating.
		Part of his avoidance of the "classic" Burma din could be due to his tinnitus, which was the reason that the band shit the bed in the first place in '83.

		However, it's extremely undeniable that the brilliant nuances of tape manipulator Martin Swope was an extremely important factor as to why Mission of Burma is, and will be one of the most important bands in the history of American music.
		Having only released a couple of seven-inch singles, one EP "Signals, Calls and Marches", one LP "Vs." and their final recording, "The Horrible Truth About Burma" which was a compilation of live recordings from their final tour in 1985; Mission of Burma called it quits and went their separate ways on good terms.
		Having recently regrouped in the past couple of years; what was supposed to be a couple of one-off reunion shows has since turned into a full-blown documentary, subsequent album and tour.

	Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic
		Formed in February 1979 when guitarist/vocalist Roger Miller and bassist/vocalist Clint Conley, fresh from the break-up of the band Moving Parts, decided to join forces with drummer/vocalist Peter Prescott, who had just parted company with the Molls.
		M.O.B. worked as a trio until the summer of 1979, when they drafted Martin Swope to provide what was commonly seen as the "x- factor" in their sound.
		Swope, who had worked with Miller in bands around their hometown of Ann Arbor, MI, added tape loops and sonic manipulations (from a visually unobtrusive position behind the soundboard) that often left audiences wondering how the trio on stage were creating the sounds that they were hearing.

		Martin had a very unique guitar style which added greatly to the sensibility of the band's early music.
		Michael and Rick (and Martin and Roger) grew up in the Detroit area, and were influenced by the MC5 and other Detroit rock and punk groups.
		This name was chosen by Roger and Martin - the story is that they were listening to an LP called "Birdsongs of America", and while the LP was spinning, they tried to read the title, and it came out as "Birdsongs of the Mesozoic".

		Their "power-trio-plus" line-up was key: Clint Conley (bass), Roger Miller (guitar), Peter Prescott (drums) and Martin Swope (tape loops) simply combusted as a musical unit.
		Prescott's drumming pounded it out in tasteful 4/4, and Swope's tape fuckery was nicely disconcerting: today he'd be the guy making weird noises on a sampler.
		After the band's demise, Miller went on to quieter musical projects, including playing piano in the minimalist Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic (with Martin Swope), the rock trio No-Man and numerous solo recordings.

		I had grown up around New York, so I'd been down on the CBGB scene in '75 and '76, and I'd seen Television and the Talking Heads, and I was drawn to the art-rock end of things.
		I would have liked to have been clobbered over the head with it a little more, but Martin wanted it just on that margin of acceptability--he wanted it right on the cusp.
