The Other Side Of Electro®...

About Me

We don't like classifying music by placing it into categories, however, if it helps people to understand our sound then we will continue to deem ourselves an Electro/Dub/Breakbeat group hence our trademark, "Distinct.Radi0...the other side of electro". We are also known to our fans as simply DR-0 (dee are zero). We have a massive list of influences, beginning with Joy Division to Kraftwerk to Ultravox to Gary Newman and all other New Wave/70s/80s/Post-punk sounds & all the way to hardcore electro with the likes of Man Parrish; Our more recent influences include 80s Acid House and most UK sounds of Speed Garage, Grime, Dub and Breakbeat. Our group began in 2004, although we didn't actually lay our first track out, complete with vocals until the summer of 2005. We played gigs in San Antonio and Austin (Texas) for 2 years before finding our absolute sound. We have just completed our second album to date, entitled "Twins of Terra Incognita". Some of our tracks are already for sale at:www.the-muzic.com. This is a duo consisting of an English producer and an American vocalist, the mix of which shines through in each track as Distinct.Radi0 'ELECTRO-fies' you!
