Steven Cochran, assuming the alias of Medic for musical works, began experimenting with audio at the age of 16 while studying visual arts at the Carver Center for Arts & Technology. It was then that he realized the possibilities that software and other technology offered to him as a tool to utilize in the creation of music. Having a natural talent for visual arts from a young age, much of his creative focus had been channeled into drawing, sculpture, and other visual forms. Looking for something different and challenging, Medic sought beyond traditional media and grew more interested in using technology while experimenting with and developing music. For Medic, the process of creating music has often been driven by an abstract right brain functioning in conjunction with and being processed through more logical and mechanical left brain activity manipulating and interfacing with the power of computers and machines to materialize sound. Medic progressed musically through self teaching, experimentation, and insight from others, and in April of 2007 he released his debut album "01101100011011110111011001100101." The album features a collaboration with Charles Levi of My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and Pigface, has received regular FM airplay, and has also been featured on network television. Shortly after the release of "01101100011011110111011001100101," the "Negative Impact V0.2" compilation featuring Medic and 17 other artists was released for distribution throughout the US and Europe. The release went on to sell out and now the newest installment in the series, "Negative Impact v0.3," is available in CD format. For two years, Medic filled the role of organizer, promoter and resident at CABAL, a weekly electronic party at The Depot in Baltimore. He later worked alongside DJs Umbris and Warring as a resident at the Dance Central party on Saturdays at Grand Central. In addition to regular appearances as a DJ in the Baltimore/DC Metropolitan area, Medic also does guest deployments at various venues and events throughout the northeast region and beyond. Currently, Medic is locked away while recording his second full length album. Stay jacked in and get your in[+]ection!

[ SYNCHROMODE'S NEW ALBUM OUT NOW @
SMK RECORDS! ]
Synchromode releases his third album: 'Rüsselkäfer'. This time Synchromode signs with a new and promising harsh electronic label from USA, Soviet Media Kontrol. 'Rüsselkäfer' includes the harshest rhythmic noise of Synchromode's new works. As John LOHR -Soviet Media Kontrol's mastermind- said, "This album delivers strong rhythmic noise tunes with harsh breakcore influences. Possibly simmilar to 'Operation Tough Guy' era Hypnoskull or possibly even some Noisex material, this disc is sure to please many!".
