MARQUE GILMORE the inna-most (Acousti-Lectric Drums & FX) Live

Internationally acclaimed drummer percussionist; future‐music & live electronic music performance pioneer; professional international solo musician, producer, arranger and innovative cultural arts practitioner; Musical/Creative Director for the music/multi‐media performance project DRUM‐FM and Stockholm-based live arts‐education organization and interactive concept‐club KULT‐U-REAL.

From its 1994 London/Brooklyn inception, Marque’s drumming and live performances with DRUM‐FM literally pioneered the musical sub‐genre phenomenon known as Live DRUM’n'BASS! He remains an icon of independent Underground Music in the UK, Europe and beyond, heavily influenced and supported by his early years in New York City as a founder member of the infamous Black Rock Coalition.

Gilmore’s primary work over the past 35+ years connects ancient musical traditions, modern music and music‐technology in both performance and production…otherwise known as: “Science‐Friction‐Drum‐and‐Space”.
