Michael Beinhorn started out as a musician in the early 1980's New York downtown scene where he played keyboards and handled electronics and tapes; he is probably best known for being a full member of [a=Bill Laswell]'s collective [a=Material] (as musician, arranger and producer).
In the mid 80's, he moved into engineering and producing and has since made himself a name as a big-time, Grammy-winning rock producer.
