Muzik 4 Machines is a live electronic music project from Montreal, Canada. Performing live with hardware synthesizers, using no pre-recorded sound or backing tracks, he creates a plethora of sounds ranging from electro to drum and bass, always with the same minimalist modus operandi; Distorted analog and punchy sampled drums, a few monophonic synths a couple of samplers, lots of effects and constant sonic mangling and tweaking. The band was formed in 1991 by TBA03(AKA Dr. Sputnick Chronos) and was particularly active from 1999 to 2002. From 2002 to 2005, Tb concentrated on some solo works and third-party productions. In 2008, they resumed where they left with some outside gigs and events during the summer and shows in small venues and bars. It all began with a Portastudio, a guitar and a TR-707 drum machine, early compositions were a mix between early house and grunge music, mixing the 4 on the floor rhythm with loud fuzz guitar. As the technology evolved, so did the Project; recruiting performers and signers and buying, finding or building new gadgets and sound mangling devices. When computer became powerful enough to generate and process sound, a new page of M4M history started. The Music also evolved from simple riffs over a steady beat to more complex and mysterious texture in some works and at the same time exploded into Rave party music in others. They got some good charts apparition online and even sold Cd's worldwide on the then underground mp3.com website that since closed. Over the years, different styles were explored as the crew changed (house, techno, drum and bass, rock, grunge, and some unclassifiable sounds). Performers including Luke, MisterW, YUL, DP and lately Dj Kaosparticipated to different Live events and special recordings (all available online). Back to minimal electro house, Muzik 4 Machines is now producing new material, performing it live, and distributing it via bit torrent, youtube and a multitude of online music stores from around the world (iTunes, Amazon, Beatport) in 2013 he started working with Nova-Scotia singer Alexandra Rodgerson, mixing his electronic production skills with her folk songs Official Sites http://www.muzik4machines.com/ iTunes music store https://itunes.apple.com/artist/muzik-4-machines/id325375467 Videos http://youtube.com/muzik4machines http://ustream.com/channel/m4m see also: http://last.fm/music/tba03 http://last.fm/music/Dr.+Sputnick+Chronos http://last.fm/music/muzik+4+machines+feat+gato http://www.last.fm/music/Mes+A%C3%AFeux+Feat+Muzik+4+Machines Read more on Last.fm.
