Jonah Sharp (alias Spacetime Continuum) is a producer, remixer, and DJ of electronic music.[1] Sharp was born in Edinburgh. After starting his musical career as a jazz drummer in London, U.K., he moved to San Francisco, U.S.[2] During the 1990s Sharp released a series of albums on the Astralwerks record label. The first of these, entitled Alien Dreamtime,[1] featured a live recording of ethnobotanist, writer and psychedelic researcher Terence McKenna delivering a series of lectures to the accompaniment of Spacetime Continuum music.[3] Sharp's subsequent albums combined experimental electronic music with subtle jazz elements and elaborate rhythm structures. His work has had a clear influence on contemporary psybient artists, such as Shpongle and others.[citation needed]
Jonah Sharp has also released collaborations with Tetsu Inoue, Bill Laswell, Mixmaster Morris, Pete Namlook, David Moufang, and Plaid.
