Paul Barker ( ex Ministry/Revolting Cocks) & Duane Denison (The Jesus Lizard/Tomahawk) decided to start a new band. They got together and wrote some material, liked what they heard, and then recruited Gary Call an unknown but extremely talented young vocalist/multi instrumentalist. They wrote some more material, liked that too, and then recruited drum wizard Johnny Rabb (clinician, author, inventor) to finish the lineup....

Comprised of percussionist Chris Patterson (DJ Krushar) and drummer Johnny Rabb, this explosive drum and percussion duo take you places that you want to be!

While playing in the styles of jungle, drum 'n' bass, house and acid jazz, the two control samples of original music and remix on the fly. They offer a different DJ oriented show combining their original techniques and grooves to each set. You have never seen or heard anything like it!

Hey Man!

Biodiesel in Chicago? Come on out, man! Chicago loves great drummers. If not with the group, then how about a clinic? DrumPad out in Palatine, Illinois always puts on great clinics, great sound. You been in touch with Victor out at the DrumPad? I saw Ray Lutzier last time, missed Chamberlain at in-store appearance.

See You on the Dark Side,

Vladimir
