Influences
Jimi Hendrix, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Friedrich Nietzsche, free jazz, ethnic music, blues and the world as one big improvisation..........
"Acid without the acid" is how B&Z were described in the Ottawa Citizen - two guitarists who "paint in sound", originally inspired by the sonic tapestries of Jimi Hendrix but adding folk, free-jazz, blues & world music etc. to the mix....spontaneous and dangerous, playing live to a backdrop of computer-generated fractal art -

"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell." Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A. X..Press
