Why this name?
We're gamers.
Do you play live?
We have had only a couple shows with this group, we are more recording artist right now. Soon when the album is finished we will definately get a live tour going.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It really helps local artist get there stuff across the world in minutes. When I was growing up in Youngstown, I used to watch all the local bands struggle to sell cd's at shows and the thought of selling a cd to someone across the country was a dream. Now it's a lot easier to get your tracks to someone that wants to hear them, the customer comes to you.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Of corse, and we are willing to do anything it takes
to make it happen.
to make it happen.
Band History:
Leland Scali and Marcus Matula were in rock bands together all through high school. The music started getting old after a while they needed something different. Marcus purchased some turntables and started mixing it up. After that Leland started purchasing some recording equipment, and headed off the recording school. Since then they have just been writing songs together in such genres as Break Beats, Trance, Drum 'n' Bass and New age.
