Michael Morley (musician)
Michael Morley is an experimental musician and visual artist from New Zealand.
Morley sings and plays guitar and laptop as a member of The Dead C, but also records on his own (and with collaborators) as Gate. Earlier, in the 1980s, Morley was a member of Wreck Small Speakers On Expensive Stereos.
Morley founded the Precious Metal label sometime in the late 1980s to document, first on cassette and later LP and CD, his own work as Gate. Most of the releases on Precious Metal were limited to very small quantities.
Morley currently teaches at Otago Polytechnic School of Art in Dunedin.
