about

Where It All Begins marks our 8th CD released over the past 9 years. Despite working exclusively as a duo for the past 10 years we continue to be able to keep our music fresh and original without feeling we are covering old ground or repeating ourselves. In part our success may be based on our approach to making music. There is very little discussion prior to getting together about the specifics of any recording. We generally come together with only the most basic backing track prepared (if at all). Then we collectively improvise by playing live to the piece and playing off each other is doing. As the inspiration hits us, there may be multiple overdubs over the track adding layers and textures. Generally when we get together we record and keep everything. As one would expect, not every recording is a gem. Many ideas and experiments just simply don't work out. Frequently though we end up with a few things that either worked out immediately or are worthy of some tweaking.

Another aspect to our music is that we pretty much never discuss what kind of music we are trying to make. We are not consciously playing to fit any style or genre of music nor are we attempting to imitate any other artist. Frankly we almost never discuss music styles at all and may not even be aware of what each other listen to. As a result we don't feel constrained to playing anything in particular. The only consideration to our music is after the fact as start to pull together a collection for release. There is a certain amount of effort to make sure we like how the CD flows together.

Name With No Sound is a musical collaboration between Mark Favro and Warren Pratten. Our music is made up of pre-composed and live elements. Mark plays keyboards. Warren plays guitar. Both of us contribute to the pre-composed backing tracks and live loops over which each person plays live. Our music is all original and draws from our musical backgrounds and interests. The results could be described as electronic and ambient. We meet roughly once a week to experiment with various musical ideas. Some of those ideas serve as a starting point from which we further refine into a composition. In addition, Mark is an accomplished filmmaker and our music has been used in conjunction with Mark's videos both in a live setting and on various internet websites such as Youtube.
