| Most of the ideas behind the M-Base Conception involve using
music to express life. Although this sounds vague, the only way to
really understand music is to listen to it. Some aspects of music
cannot be adequately described using words. In spite of this, we will
continually use this web page primarily to distribute information on
things related to and coming out of the M-Base Conception. The M-Base Collective began around 1984. Here is a list of people who have been involved in this movement by participating in the music and or influenced the spirit of the music: |
