==Module History==
After his first two single releases, Module joined forces with [[Rhian Sheehan]] and began touring around New Zealand and Australia. During this time he was signed to New Zealand based record label [[LOOP Recordings]] and released his debut double album [[Remarkable Engines]] with the bonus Piano disk Movement which sold moderately well. One track from his album ''What it seems'' was picked up by 'Positivitly Wellington Tourism' as the theme music for the widely popular ''Have a love affair with Wellington'' campaign, which received hi rotate for over three years on nationwide television and radio. [[Rhian Sheehan]] and Module went on to tour for two years, performing at many festivals from [[Rainbow serpent]], [[Splore]] and countless performances around New Zealand and Australia.

In 2005 he joined [[Fly My Pretties]] and performed his own acoustic piano compositions "Oh Fair Moonlight" and "Rain" for 16 sell-out shows around New Zealand theaters cumulating in the release of a CD/DVD which sold over 10,000 copies in New Zealand. In one of the last performances for Fly My Pretties he played "Rain" in the [[Auckland Town Hall]] on the [[pipe organ]].

in [[2006]] He independently released a full-length free ambient album ''[http://www.archive.org/details/dreamsforthesleepless Dreams for the sleepless]'' on [[archive.org]] which has had over 4,000 downloads.

Since his album release, Module has continued to perform regularly around New Zealand, Australia and Spain as Module and with Rhian Sheehan, and The Blush Response, while working on new music.

==Module Live==
Module uses computers, samplers, and synthesizers in his live performances, using PC computers running [[Ableton Live 6]], a [[Novation X-station]], [[Korg x-50]] and various outboard hardware to re-create his studio recordings. He splits up his songs into numbers which are triggered from a MIDI Keyboard, along with performing live keyboard parts on top. He does not DJ and he performs only his own music, making him closer to a [[one man band]]. He also performs his solo piano works. He also makes use of VJ's and design elements within his performances, creating a MIDI Synced visual/audio show using modul8, Resolume.
