The track is Rhys Chatham and Martin Wheeler. Although Rhys Chatham is most well known as a guitar-based composer, he also plays trumpet, and much of his more recent work is trumpet based. I think the trumpet was played through a wah pedal on this one - as you say, very Miles Davis.

This one is the New Zealand one-man band Gate. Michael Morley discovered laptops in the late 90s and decided to stop doing distorted guitar stuff and start doing laptop stuff instead. I can't remember the name of the album, but if you want to know I'll tell you later. If there is a laptop set by Gate at ATP (seeing as Michael Morley will be there with The Dead C) I will be very happy.

I can't remember what this was. I really should have written out a track list.
