Space Monkeez gave birth to the binary power of silicone world and translated it into the music of our world.

Band/artist history

Space Monkeez gave birth to the binary power of silicone world and translated it into the music of our world. 

  In 2002 they opened up the deep mines of their conciousness to bring the energy accumulated there to light. They called this energy INFRAMIND. 

  It is a fissile material that tries to conclude a complex view of life, in which nothing is more than elementary particle. In our meaningless life we love to think that we are not worthless. God does not exist because we became our own gods. We are the slaves of the mass media world with useless aims.
  Our instinct program works: we breed, we stay alive because we think that we are the creatures of eternity. In reality, the whole evolution is just a spark in the endless space. 
  This is the message that our music or noise is dedicated to convey. In 2003 the hard work in the studio ended and INFRAMIND got the final shape.

  The first video was shot on track called Bodyjailed Soul, which was released on album too as a multimedia session.

  Another turning point in 2003 was that they were the guest of Paradise Lost (UK) in Budapest. This was the first stop of the autumn 2003 Space Monkeez "Beware of the Monkeez" Tour.

  It is not a secret that the band would like to be listened to abroad as well, to take this unique music to those, who want to find something new.

  Space Monkeez focuses on Great Britain in first place, so as a private venture the album got international distribution by a well-known electro-industrial-darkwave online store called Music Non Stop (UK). It became available through the Internet.

  2004 is the Monkeez’ Year, so it couldn’t start without a huge attraction. Space Monkeez  had a gig as Limp Bizkit’s only guest in front of thousands of people in Budapest.

  The tracks: 22 miles from nowhere, Low Rider, Bodyjailed Soul, My Lil’ Whore are often played by electro-industrial-darkwave party djs, for example at Hungarian Depeche Mode & Rammstein Fan Clubs, at LD-50 parties, etc.

  In April 2004 new member joined the band. Fortunatelly the change on drums was much more successful than it was expected. All the problems are thinks of the past, the trio more unified than ever before.

  The second video was made (My Lil’ Whore) in May 2004, which is still one of the most favorite video on Hungarian Music Television.

  2005 was mostly about live shows and about the change. 

  The first step of the change is the new single and new video calls Speedracer. The main idea of Speedracer song is competition, racing. A race is mostly about victory, but the training and the heat itself concentrate the one’s all caracter on one single achievement, so you must give the maximum. That’s what we would like to convey in our video. Life is a big heat, which is valuable only if you can always give the maximum to yourself and your surroundings. 
  When the race ends and we don’t really win, we should at least know that we have done everything and stepped on the gas as much as possible!
  Hungaroring is giving home to Acceleration, the most popular form of entertainment nowdays in Hungary. Here everyone can be a winner, no one can lose!
  Nothing else is important only to let acceleration and competitive spirit carry you away.  
  SPEEDRACER song became the official music of EVO-Racing Competition.

Have you performed in front of an audience?

Yes, mostly in Hungary. We are looking for possibilities to play at abroud. Actually we don't have international booking agency.

Your musical influences

I think we have a lot of influences. I mean we like different types of music. There are 3 members in the band. Drumer (Vanicsek Viktor) is big Primus, RHCP fan. Guitarist (Lalatka Lajos) usually listen some heavy-alternative bands like Slipknot, Rob Zombie, NIN, Zeromancer, Prodigy, etc. Lead singer (Kassai Szabolcs) is a big electro fan. Loves music like Kraftwerk, Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk, BT, etc.
