Born in 1977, Shuhei Nojiri learned musical composition, arrangement, synthesizer programming, and Surround Production from Isao Tomita.

During his college years, he studied symphonic sound arrangement and produced musical pieces utilizing multi-channel expression. The Surround demonstration he exhibited at the Media Arts Festival, AES, and InterBEE2004 was highly acclaimed, and his first work, "Respighi: Symphonic Poem (Roman Trilogy)" was featured under the DENON label. His disc debuted in December 2003. He is the first musician in Japan to have debuted with a multi-channel musical piece. His second surround sound album “Petrushka/Galapagos Symphony” was released in August 2004. Currently, he is working toward expanding his music production activities by utilizing the Surround technology to the fullest.

Tim Conrardy is an expert sound designer who has worked on presets for many commercial and freeware plug-ins and he is also responsible for many of the factory preset patches that ship on Receptor. Tim composed these three songs in between his Receptor preset creation duties.

Space Redemption was recorded and rendered in Tracktion and uses these Receptor Multi-patches from Tim\'s preset bank: RYM Centrific, LED Distorto, KBD Strings&Rhodes, SFX Deep Space and PAD TriStarNebula.

Tim created Sky Axe to demonstrate Receptor in use as a guitar processor. The whole thing was recorded live, with the drums from an EMU MP7 being fed into the AUX inputs of Receptor to allow them to be processed "live"! Tim used used the "GTR Hillage" preset from his guitar bank (Hillage obviously referring to Steve Hillage, former guitarist for Gong and now with System7).

Quartet is an orchestral piece and uses Tim\'s preset bank with the ORC presets. Essentially Tim used Green Oak\'s Crystal VST Instrument as a "ROMpler" to create "real" orchestral sounds.
