Legion of Green Men (well, I know that Lex and Rew and their transporting, energetically torporific recordings -- such as Spatial Specific and Floating in Shallow Water -- are mentioned here somewhere, and I felt like mentioning them again)
Van Dyke Parks (we quote his praise of Samuel Andreyev's music)
Terence McKenna (Apart from a few quotes, none of Terence's actual work appears here, though a growing number of links to relevant sites may be found. It was Terence's encouragement which initially led me to develop an online home for Torpor Vigil Industries, and it is to his memory and the revelatory beauty of his vision that I lovingly dedicate torporvigil.com --SV)
