ORIGIN:
Beginning as a short film concept in
2003, ULTRA PULVERIZE took the stage
for the first time in 2004
and has since been entertaining
crowds anywhere power outlets can be
found. The beats are all live, tapped
out by hand on a beat machine. A Korg
Mono/Poly and a Moog Little Phatty make
up the analog synthesizer arsenal to ensure a vintage
electronic sound. The lyrics are
lightning-quick with a tongue-in-cheek
sensibility.
Influences include: DEVO, Chrome, The Beastie Boys, The Ramones.
