Now, to the band:
TONEHENGE- crossover, electronic dance music, with Pop, World and Rave influences. Tonehenge has been playing raves, parties and events for the last couple of years and are now releasing their self-titled, first album. As the electronic scene moves toward live acts, Tonehenge's compelling vocals, strings and catchy rhythms, combined with their dancers and imagery, could be at the edge of the next musical wave.
"MYSTIC PETE" (PETER LUDWIG), cellist, vocalist and producer of Tonehenge, has had an unconventional musical career. He started playing cello in 3rd grade, when his school offered free lessons and cello rental for $6 per year. In his teens, he studied trance mediumship, and was able to channel extraordinary voices who sang and chanted. He moved on from channeling, but the voices stayed. He has played in orchestras, accompanied poets such as Coleman Barks and wailed at raves. His love of Trance, Dance and World music, and his mastery of improvisation, led to the evolution of Tonehenge.
ATOM SMITH is a multi-talented producer, artist, engineer, programmer, instrumentalist and vocalist with a dynamic stage presence - look for the guy on stage with bright orange overalls and spiked hair. His band, Brain Garden, has several albums out and was well received at their live performance on KXLU. He founded the Hydraulic Clown Head (HcH) Enterprizes label, with collaborator Brad Cooper, which focuses on several styles of electronic music. Mystic Pete credits Tonehenge's finished sound to Atom's fine producing and engineering skills.

LA Tones
author: Max P. Martini - Out In The Mountains / November 2003 IssueLos Angeles based Tonehenge has released their first CD of the same name. Their name is derived from tone - tonus, a sound; and henge - ancient structure. They classify themselves as "crossover, electronic dance music, sweetened by vocals and strings, with Pop, World, and Rave influences." Tonehenge is the brainchild of vocalist and cellist Mystic Pete (Peter Ludwig) and is co-produced by Atom Smith. The CD features the vocals of Ana Robles, Dawnia Carlson, Kinga Toth, and several others. This 16-track collection delivers an amazing array of sounds and styles, including three dance remixes of "The One," "1000 Nights," and "You Are Mine" as well as a drum and bass mix of "Raver." Just sampling the first 4 tracks (online at www.cdbaby.com/cd/tonehenge) immediately shows the amazing diversity of Tonehenge. The vocalists featured on this CD were well chosen and enhance the entire listening experience. One disappointing note for this reviewer, however, was that Mystic Pete's amazing cello playing wasn't more prominently featured on more tracks. Peter Ludwig (a.k.a. Mystic Pete) has had an interesting musical career. He started playing cello in 3rd grade, and he studied as a trance medium in his teens, channeling extraordinary voices. He has played in orchestras, accompanied poets such as Coleman Barks, and wailed at raves. His love of Trance, Dance and World music, and his mastery of improvisation led to the evolution of Tonehenge. Tonehenge has been playing raves, parties and events for the last couple of years. With the electronic scene moving toward live acts, Tonehenge's compelling vocals, strings and catchy rhythms, combined with their dancers and imagery, could be at the edge of the next musical wave. Let's hope we can catch them on tour soon. Max's personal Martini Rating = 2 Martinis
