Artist description A guy, his computer and some software which can be both wonderful and mind-numbingly irksome at the same time.

Music Style EBM/Industrial Dance

Musical Influences Skinny Puppy, Haujobb (and associated side-projects), Juno Reactor, 808 State, Kraftwerk, Null Device, :wumpscut: and any other band I've ever heard in my life.

Similar Artists I'm not sure. See above for the influences, then try to imagine that all mashed together.

Artist History About 10 years ago when I first discovered Skinny Puppy, I had a deep urge to make music like that. It never happened. A few years ago some friends and I in the habit of haning out in a lab full of computers and people who love them started making some excrable techno. One, Eric Oehler, kept at it, becoming half of Null Device. After watching and listening to his work, I decided I wanted to try my hand at this. The songs you see now are the first fruits of that decision (July 2000). I'm already at work on my next EP, which will have a lot of intonational experimentation.

Group Members William S. Annis (the human). The Pink Menace (the computer - a strawberry iMac).

Instruments All software: Reaktor, Cubase, ReBirth, AS-1, DS-1, Csound, lots of noisy samples. Expect duduk and saz in the future.
