Quadrant

With over 20 years of combined musical experience, the artists that make up Quadrant bring the best of each of their abilities to the table, and the results are phenomenal.
Leigh Caplan (Texel) began playing the piano at the age of six. By the age of 10 he was writing music and completed a string quintet by the age of 12. At 18 Texel started producing electronic music and had a release on Seattle based Ornj Plus Recordings shortly thereafter. Since then, he's absorbed every bit of information he's learned about production and has put it to good use. He combines his musical acumen with an equally extensive technical background to ensure Quadrant's tunes are engineered as well as they are written.
Daniel Pollard (Cyanide) was brought up on variegated sorts of music. It was Drum and Bass that lead him into his musical career. Cyanide picked up DJing in 1999 and, in less than a year, gained ground headlining events all over southeast US and became a resident at Savannah, Georgia's only Drum and Bass weekly. At 17 he broke into producing while still frequently touring the United States and Canada. His wide scope of musical influences, both mainstream and esoteric, serve as constant inspiration; not many artists can claim equal exposure to Dirty South, Post Punk, and all manner of electronic music.
The city of Philadelphia provided fertile ground for Quadrant's diverse range of creative output (Cyanide is now in Atlanta; Texel resides in Seattle). The bass resonating from their third floor studio on any given night was proof of the amount of dedication to dissecting, analyzing, and reassembling musical compositions. In 2005 they appeared on two releases for the UK-based Drum and Bass label Renegade Hardware and in February 2006 Manipulated Living served on the Carpe Diem album sampler. "My Beautiful Liar" also made an appearance on the Fear No Evil LP. They produced two tracks on Mental Sharp's album, "Above the Beats and Below the Bass," and worked closely with Chuck Treece on a remix of Leiana's "Talk."
Not content to be confined to the studio environment, both members of Quadrant are a force to be reckoned with behind the decks, and are widely known for meticulously mixed sets which place equal emphases on dance floor energy and emotional depth.
With several projects and collaborations on the immediate horizion, 2007 will prove to be the best year yet for Quadrant.
