Artist History
We formed Cyclotron in 1996 in an attempt to make music in a way that we had never done before--without constraints or preconceived notions, without labels or barriers. Through the use of sampling and sequencing we have opened up new and wide vistas of soundscapes that were unavailable to us in the traditional rock band format. Now, whatever we hear in our minds can be recreated for a live or studio setting. Over the last four years we have worked towards attaining a sound that conveys power, intensity, brutality and beauty. We feel that our structures of sweeping atmospheres combined with raw, grinding power, and danceable back beats with the pure roar of rage have created a unique sound. Outburn magazine rated us 3 out of 3 possible stars "Great,..." and a Sideline magazine review said, "the best American demo band I have heard in a long time, the tracks are one after one brilliant and damaging dance assaults." We have received radio air play in France on The S & SR show, 99.4 ‘Radio Pastel FM’, and in Tucson, AZ on 92.1 KFMA. Cyclotron consists of two members, Brad Lewellyn on drums and programming and Craig Leach on guitars and vocals. Our goal is to find a record label that can distribute our music in Europe and the United States. We are also interested in touring Europe and the U.S. |
