Greetings from alternate earth. We are an electronic-acoustic live p.a. act from Orlando, Florida. November 25, 2000 is the official release date of our new single "move" available FREE all over the net. The single is a precursor to our third self-released CD, "Grooves To Make Your Booty Move" due out this New Year's Eve. We are also in the process of booking our first international tour, "WORLDWIDE EVOLUTION" set for Spring/Summer 2001. If you would like to learn more about alternate earth or our music, please check out our websites or e-mail us.
Band/artist history
We grew up together between Washington, DC & Baltimore. Rina's sister dated the bass player from one of Zar's bands. Zar started our playing piano at age 4, guitar at 7 & now he is a virtuoso. Rina started playing keys at 5 & Djing in the rave scene at 16. We both traveled all over pursuing our musical careers before we ran into each other on Rina's birthday in Ocean City, MD. We've been together ever since. That was 1997 and since then we've created over 5 hours of original material together. Our music is a combination of both of our influences. We are partners romantically and professionally and our relationship continues to grow and evolve just as our music does.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Up til now, most of our gigs have been tag-team DJ sets. However, we are putting a full band together for our upcoming tour. We love playing live more than anything. We can occasionally be found playing acoustic gigs. Our most memorable gig so far is probably LOVE CAMP in Atlanta because of all the painted naked people.
Your musical influences
Zar's influences: The Cure, Stone Roses, Fugazi, Bad Religion, Crystal Method, BT, The Orb, The Pharcyde, Beastie Boys, Hum Rina's influences: Moby, Prodigy, Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos, Janis Joplin, Duran Duran
What equipment do you use?
What don't we use? We record a lot of our own samples, so we swear by the Roland VS 880. We also love our Triton. Guitars by Paul Reed Smith too. Sonic Foundry Rules. Elixer strings, Boss Drum machines, Grooveboxes, V-Drums & Widget Guitar Midi Interface.
Anything else?
If you enjoy our music, please let us know. We believe in grass roots promotion, so if you would like to endorse and promote alternate earth now, it could lead to a permanent position in our organization. Our career has steadily snowballed over the past three years & things keep getting bigger & better. Thank you to all our fans for their support and we look forward to hearing from you all! MAD LUV 2 YA - Rina & Zar
