Getting bored with the average cubicle life, Snoblind was formed when two cubicle jockeys (Vincent and Regina) who happened to play bass and guitar get hooked up and started make music with their computers. What started as a water-fountain conversation joke project blossomed into a full fledge on-going sonic and visual experiment. With an intelligent blend of technology and live instrumentation, Snoblind expressively deliver music in a wide range of styles, from street tough, bass heavy hiphop to swirling ambient soundscape, from spliffed out dub funk to in your face punk rock. Whatever style it is, the baseline of Snoblind is one thing: head music for your soul.
Why this name?
It was based on Robert Sabbag's novel "Snowblind".
Do you play live?
snoblind DJ'ed on or off in 2002 at an upscale fashion retailer. It was pretty special, experience-wise playing to racks of clothes rather than throngs of people. Last Snoblind heard, not one piece of clothing have complained about the music Snoblind played.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Since Snoblind construct its music digitally, it's no wonder that Snoblind is down with the idea that its music to be distribute and share digitally.
Your influences?
DJ Shadow, Coldcut, 2 Many DJs, David Holmes, Bill Laswell, RZA, Bill Frisell, John Coltrane, Techno Animal, early 90s hiphop, Nirvana, Babes in Toyland, Skid Row, Guns and Roses, indie punk etc.
Favorite spot?
