Tom Hamilton

Tom Hamilton is an American composer and performer of electronic music who has worked with analog synthesizers since the 1970s. His early work was made in St. Louis in that decade before he moved to New York. He is known for his electronic pieces of the 1970s, later reissued, and for his long role in the company of composer Robert Ashley, where he mixed and processed the sound of the operas in performance. Hamilton released Pieces for Kohn in 1976, four electronic works named after paintings by St. Louis artist Bill Kohn.
