In music, Conrad was an early ( though not original ) member of the Theatre of Eternal Music, nicknamed The Dream Syndicate, which included John Cale, Angus MacLise, La Monte Young, and Marian Zazeela, and utilized just intonation and sustained sound ( drones ) to produce what the group called " dream music " ( and is now called drone music ).

Angus MacLise ( March 4, 1938, Bridgeport, Connecticut – June 21, 1979, Kathmandu, Nepal ) was an American percussionist, composer, poet, occultist and calligrapher probably best known as the first drummer for the Velvet Underground.

MacLise was replaced by Maureen Tucker, resulting in the " classic " lineup of The Velvet Underground.

In 1966 when Velvet Underground singer Lou Reed was in hospital with hepatitis, MacLise rejoined the group for a 5-day run of performances at Poor Richard's in Chicago, June 21 – 26 1966, sharing duties with Gerard Malanga, whom Angus had taught to play tabla.

By this time the Velvet Underground had found some notoriety ( if not great financial success ) and MacLise was anxious to rejoin the group, but according to the notes of the box set Peel Slowly and See, the VU's primary songwriter and de facto bandleader Lou Reed had specifically prohibited MacLise from rejoining the band full-time due to his erratic behavior.

They also had a son, Ossian Kennard MacLise, who was recognized by Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, the 16th Karmapa, as a reincarnation of a Tibetan saint, or tulku, and at age four became a Buddhist monk.

Even though his music was largely unheard, the experimental group Coil have mentioned strong influences from MacLise in both sound and lyric form.

In May 2011 a major retrospective exhibit Dreamweapon: The Art and Life of Angus MacLise ( 1938-1979 ) was mounted by the Boo-Hooray Gallery in Chelsea, New York City.

Footage of Breeze performing alongside Maclise was shown at the exhibition Dreamweapon: The Art and Life of Angus MacLise ( 1938 – 1979 ) from May 10-May 29, 2011 curated by Johan Kugelberg and Will Swofford Cameron.

MacLise also collaborated with Tony Conrad, John Cale and La Monte Young on several other recordings:

MacLise played bongos and hand drums during 1965 with the first incarnation of the Velvet Underground.

Although the band regularly extemporised soundtracks to underground films during this era, MacLise never officially recorded with them, and is often considered something of a shadowy, legendary figure in their history.

In the early years of his career he worked with poet-percussionist and Velvet Underground cofounder Angus MacLise.

However, Conrad has characterized those works as collaboration for which he, Angus MacLise, and John Cale should share collective credit.

When the opportunity of the band's first paying gig in November 1965 arose, MacLise promptly quit, suggesting the group were selling out.

MacLise recorded a vast amount of music that went largely unreleased until 1999.
