Don't Die is Greg Marasso and Tom Mackerness. In 2002, years after receiving music degrees, they began to compose, produce, and perform homemade electro-acoustic soundtracks. The San Francisco and Sacramento based duo blend downtempo, ambient, electronica, and avante-garde music with conventional instruments.

Greg plays drums, percussion, marimba, keyboards, samplers, and synthesizers. Tom plays bass, violin, effects, voice, computers, and flute. They combine live recordings with sythesized textures to construct magestic and unusual soundscapes.

With four album releases, these Northern California clowns have produced and recorded custom made 21st century electronic gypsy duets. Don't Die is always interested in adding unique sounds to film and video.
