Discography

Donkey - Stone [2007/Accretions, ALP043]
Hans Fjellestad: synthesizer
Damon Holzborn: electronics
Recorded live at The Stone in Manhattan's East Village, this is Donkey's third effort on Accretions and signals a new sound for the duo; dark, glitchy, dense, playful, harsh, loopy

Trummerflora - Rubble 2 [2006/Accretions/Circumvention, A/C-202]
Rubble 2 is the second in a series of compilations featuring works by members and ensembles of the Trummerflora Collective. Damon contributes a solo composition.

Damon Holzborn - Adams & Bancroft [2004/Accretions, ALP035]
Abandoning his guitar for this project, Holzborn brings his instrumental approach to the laptop, resulting in the same dynamicism and timbal exploration displayed in his ensemble work.

Hans Fjellestad - analog & digital synthesizers, sampler, electronics
