Artist History Started in 1993 by two like-minded guys with no previous musical experience whatsoever with the (very) limited release of the "Big audio Vomit" cassette. Second Cassette release in 1995 ("he wanted a drill") got reasonable play on local college radio and the local industrial/experimental shows and clubs. We've always taken a very low tech approach to most of our sound work utilizing broken home stero equipment, tape recorders, toys, cheap thrift store guitars, dollar store items, casiotone keyboards, etc. Our focus goes from tape cut-up collage sound scapes, harsh noise, droning ambient tracks and quirky beat-driven pieces

Press Reviews "This is definitely one of the most interesting noise bands i have listened to, though there are not many of those. Really nice soundscapes" - yrttipuutarha "Experimental indeed! I like it. It's fun. It's eerie. It's annoying. Not all at the same time though some of the time.... Face it, this is ART!! (did I mention I like it). Great Work! Nice experiments!" - lanceKC ZYGOTE PRODUCTIONS "Wasn't music something with a melody or at least a rythem in it? After listening to this I'm not that sure anymore. Some tracks I would rather call "sound" instead of "music". Don't get me wrong, I apriciate fILT. He rather create his own sound than to copy other peoples work. As someone already mentioned this is art. It's interesting to hear this sort of experimental music, but it sometimes get's a bit to noisy. If I have to discribe fILT with one word it would be "intresting"." - Alien Masturbation Foundation "Experimentation is the field of these guys! If u are into it i think it deserves a listen!" - Hoxygen "this is a great collection of sound...i love noise art and this is some of the best ive heard. all the pictures are great too." - Slothe "I give a 7. This is brilliant. I think I'm going to go to beed and leave this on to see what the hell happens to my brain. My Casio SK1 had the same drum pattern. Ahh! I see you've given credit to the SK1. They don't make samplers like they used to. You've done an exceptional job in assembling these arrays of sounds. What is equally impressive is the titling of these songs and the images that accompany them. "Plod" has my favorite 'accidental' groove. May these efforts continue. Perhaps 5 channel audio support someday?" - Divertigo "Most of the music from this artist seems very uninspired. It's very much like the title says "accidental music". There seems to be very little attention paid to the details of the sound, which is a big problem, since most of the music is very minimalistic. Like many amateur experimental electronic artists, these guys have a "broken stuff" approach to creating their music (whether actually using broken equipment, or just manipulating sounds to resemble broken equipment). On the positive side, they do manage to create interesting blends of sound on a couple of the tracks (notably "Three Sounds")." - N. Kisler
