   About CTRLSHFT
BIO

Spawned circa 1998, CTRLSHFT instills a unique spark into the nuanced realm of post-industrial aural communiqués, infusing evolutionary/revolutionary viewpoints to the dissonance of civilization, humanity's place in our perceived physical universe, and the eternal unrest for empowerment therein.

CTRLSHFT divines the worlds of analog noise-beat and the visceral, dimension-shifting forces of electro/idm to create an aggressive yet melodic soundtrack to the living, breathing paradox we face each day.

Ok, just how many Bens are there in this scene?  My Ben and Cursed Chimera Ben will be playing Friday, then C/A/T Ben and Terrorfakt Ben will be playing Saturday.  I wonder if there are any Bens playing on Sunday?  Heheh

I wanted to come up last night, but it just wasn't in the cards.  I would have liked to have given my regards to the Backwards crew, particularly because they've always been so supportive of us... and I would've liked to get a sneak peek at Cursed Chimera, too.  Alas, Ben was finishing up some vocals to one of the new tracks, and I was starting the painting for the new album art.

I think we've finally solved our live feedback problems now!  Raoul from Noisex suggested a CB mic, since it only sends a signal while you're pushing down the button... it seems ingenious, so I hope it works as well as it seems for Ben's vocals.  For me, I should get by this time around with one of our good ol' Beta 57As.  My vox for RevState don't have any distortion on them, and this time around I'm actually singing in some of the songs, if you can believe it ^_^

Fuck yes!  Thank you so much for coming out!  I'm super glad to have met you and I'm glad you are enjoying the CD.  I look forward to working with you more when I move out to Denver.

your old comment is haunting my myspace account!  there is actually no comment to appove, but if I deny it, it just pops right back up.  ooooh.... spooky comment  lol

the world is eerily small.  I couldn't really remember anything about Cursed Chimera... I had discovered earlier today that he's playing the 2nd anniversary of Backwards Records Night... Ben and I know most of the Backwards Records peeps that live in CO, and we've played with quite a few of them... then you tell me that Maggie does his art... then I go to Cursed Chimera's myspace and discover he's released on Backwards before...  then I see a girl I've known since I was about 15 in his top friends who moved to Seattle a few years back, and she has left the last comment on his profile... what the hell!?!
