Michael Garrison (musician)

Michael Garrison (born on November 28, 1956 in Roseburg, Oregon, died on March 24, 2004 in Bend, Oregon) was a synthesist from Oregon, USA.

While studying music at the University of Idaho, he started to form the basis for his first release on his own label, Windspell Records, later known as Garrisongs Music. The original work was titled In The Regions Of Sunreturn and Beyond and was created under the impression of the Voyager missions. Later he signed with BMG in 1980, the title was changed to In The Regions Of Sunreturn.

He was influenced by the European innovators of electronic music, like Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, and Jean Michel Jarre.
