In recent years, Receptors has performed at NYC's legendary Blip Fest, CMJ and Bent Festivals, showcased at Austin, Texas' SXSW Festival and Iceland's Airwaves Fest, and in 2007 Jeremy Kolosine performed the first ever circuit-bent performance (Leopold Mozart's "Toy Symphony") with a full symphony orchestra (The Roanoke Symphony). The debut 7" EP was released in 2005 and Receptors' full length CD "LO" is planned for 2008. Also OUT NOW is the critically acclaimed ReceptorsMusic production "8-Bit Operators - an 8-bit Tribute to Kraftwerk" released internationally on Kraftwerk's US home label Astralwerks/EMI.
