    Artist description
    Hungry? Ingredients for Beat Corp Stew [serves 8 - 250] - Add playfully stark lyrics - Too many years in recording studios and recreational    drug use - A large helping of pounding electronic beats - Pinch of dreamy acoustic and indi industrial guitar textures - Spice with turntable scratches - Glaze with Goth undertones    Let simmer for 4 minutes    PUCKER! ENJOY! The Beat Corp sound could be considered a mixture of late Primal Scream, Mogwai, Fluke, and Beta Band. Not known for sparing any musical genres, this is a sound that any listener can vibe with.

    Artist History
    Formed in 2002 by Hans Gutknecht. Being the programmer for many projects over the course of 8 years, Hans defined a style and stuck to it. Enlisting his programming skills and years of engineering (credits include Deborah Cox, the Roots, George Clinton) he began the songwriting process which became Beat Corp. Enlisting the talent of Dan Maiman to do additional vocals and production, Keith Kohn for some wizardry on the wheels of steel and for a fiery Paratrooper Remix of the Beat Corp Theme, Brian Ulrich. The first album Permanent Jetlag album was ready to go. Listen for updates on your local indi radio stations for upcoming Beat Corp shows in your area
