irr. app. (ext.)

IRR. APP. (EXT.) is work of one M.S. Waldron, with a revolving constallation of ancillary members including R.K. Faulhaber, Gregory Sharpen, John Scharpen, Jim Haynes, and Steven Stapleton.

M.S. Waldron was born in Toronto at the ruinous conclusion of the 1960s, where he spent the next couple of years in a warm puddle of his own creation. Approximately ten years later he was relocated to California, joining a long list of invasive species that include the Eucalyptus, the Earwig, and the Pike. At the age of 18 he discovered the manifold joys of manipulating sound waves, irritating stupid people and sneezing - all three of these interests ultimately finding common expression in the project "irr. app. (ext.)", a name derived through the transliteration of a particularly satisfying sneeze experienced sometime around 1992. He has since had the privilege of basking in the creative light of entities such as Stilluppsteypa and Nurse With Wound, despite a shocking lack of education and a well-founded contempt for society.


irr. app. (ext.) performed at the 23five curated night of the 2003 San Francisco Electronic Music Festival.
