Steve Lowther has been composing electronic music since the early 1980's. A big fan of Pulp Science Fiction novels of the 50's and 60's, much of Steve's soundtrack compositions are often spaced-out and wacky. Steve's fun-loving, tongue-in-cheek and often experimental approach to composing can be gleaned from peculiar track titles like "Planet of The Orange Beast" and "Citadel of the Green Death". While listening to Lowther's music, you will inevitably be struck by the creativity and originality of his stylings, but you are also quite likely to hear the influence of electronic music pioneers like Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk, or more recent original electronic artists like Aphex Twin or Stereolab.
Example soundtracks by Steve Lowther: "Ghosts In Sector Seven" is a free music download which should work well as background music in science fiction videos: "Panorama, Mist and Mountains" is an ambient soundtrack featuring piano, harp and oboe with subtle sound manipulations:
