    Artist History
    chris chattom and gabriel santa cruz make up the cells...divided from the initial project, Joined, the cells are more in the electronic/eclectic genres touching on brazilian, southwestern and european flavours. the sound is very groovy and BIG with alot of flow and real instrumentation happening. using tools such as: macintoshes, cuBase, protools, absynth, reason along with real percussion, acoustic guitars,fretless bass, ebow, foot pedals, analog tape (and anything we can get our hands, feet or brains on) the end result is a finely woven mix of both worlds.
