Artist History
Interface has been active in the NY area since 1993. Originally a minimalist electro project, Interface expands to a trio live. Always collaborating with guest artists, Interface finished its first full length CD THE ARTEMIS COMPLEX in late 1998. Since first being passed around, it in the last year has caught the attention of club and radio DJ's alike, with singles like "Metalstorm" and "The Softest Blade" pervading local dance floors and airwaves. After spending most of 2001 upgrading the studio, Interface completed the second full-length album ANGELS IN DISGUISE in May 2002. With tracks such as "Wasted Time" and "Temperature" making out to dancefloors, the CD continued to solidify Interface's place in New York and expand its audiences beyond the tri-state area. Interface welcomed 2003 by inking a deal with Tinman, making it the sole distributor of their music. |
