I've been composing electronica since 1997, under the ISDS moniker from 1998 to 2002 and as Is Does from 2004 to 5.

The sound's best described as 'eclectic', but fans of intelligent techno, ambient or electronica as a whole might be in luck. Some influences, not necessarily all audible: Aphex Twin, Syd Barrett, the Beta Band, the Fiery Furnaces, Orbital, Plaid, Plone, the Super Furry Animals and Yes.
