After years of being angst-ridden hermits, m.0 and the iLL.F.O. met and started creating mad nuclear experiments in the studio. Through their “Therapy for Alienated Nerds and Aliens” group, they’ve helped each other get past the negative forces in club-land to form an underground Nerd Revolt. These synth cyborgs have one mission in mind: to overcome the darkness of the scene and inspire others through their beats.
Both classically trained musicians, they each bring a unique style and sound to the mix. Their joint arsenal is a deadly one, consisting of 2 laptops with Ableton Live, hardware and software synths, plugins, MIDI controllers, mics, and tons of sound-mangling weapons that threaten to crush your synapses.
When you’re rollin’ with a rig known as “The Great”, there’s only one way to drop it. Blending the precision of their studio work with the spontaneity of a live band, Nerd Revolt's performances feature melodic, glitchy improv journeys, synths and vocals, beats triggered and manipulated on the fly, and a whole lotta punk rock attitude.
But NR goes beyond just the music— it’s about taking all forms of geekable technology to the next level while keeping it DIY-style. Whether it’s video, photography, blogging, or anything they can sink their brains into, they always bring a raw and honest vibe to everything they do. Peep the realness at www.dejaded.com.
