Biography
Ben has been recording as Mank since 1998 releasing “home made” CD’s on his Mankymusic label. Influenced by nature and maths the music is computer based, combining field recordings with real and virtual instruments. Ben is known for using some exclusive recording locations - two releases (Isbjorn and Ambergris) were recorded whist on board a Russian polar research ship at the north pole, most of the Mank albums were born at sea.
Mank has received airtime on BBC Radio 1, Radio 3, Radio 6 and Radio Wales
“……one of the most important electronic artists in Wales” – Adam Walton, Radio Wales

Genius stuff! Digging it a lot lately, perfect for late nights. So much feeling and mood behind each piece. Almost tempted to fork out the £5 for an Ambergris disc - unless they're all gone. What's next on the horizon then?

Hi Mank! I don't know where I got it but I've got your Cephalization album from somewhere and it has been on my HD for a long time. Have you mentioned it at the LJ ambient group or perhaps some ambient mailing list? I've been listening to it now and then and just now I realized how AMAZING it is! At parts it is very glitchy and experimental but it's also very beautifully delicate and evocative.
