I’m always excited to showcase some local music. This blog features artists from all over, from Australia to Amsterdam, Denver, and now, Puyallup, Washington.
Got some deep Trip-Hop/Dubstep/Awesome shit.
Team Chaos is comprised of Alan K. and Elliot B.
INTERVIEW.
1. How long have you guys been making music as TEAM CHAOS?
We have known each other as friends for years, but recently just started making music together about 6 months ago.
Elliot also plays guitar and does vocals in a metal band called Royalty In Ruins.
2. What is the electronic scene like in Puyallup, Washington?
In Puyallup, there isn’t to much of a scene, you have to drive to Seattle for that, there is a huge and awesome scene there, but you probably already know that! haha
3. What kind of equipment do you use for production? Live shows?
For production, we use FL Studio 9 and Massive, with an M-audio interface, midi-controller, guitar and live instrument sounds and Rocket 5 studio monitors. For live shows, we will be using Serato Itch with a Vestex VCI-300 DJ midi controller/interface.
We would like to experiment with incorporating live instruments with spinning. We have not officially played any live gigs yet, but are ready to book some very soon, so hit us up if you like what you hear out there!
4. Who are some of your favorite current artists?
Alan- Bassnectar, Noisemaker, Caspa, Rusko
Elliot- N-type, Within The Ruins, Dillenger Escape Plan
and we both dig Phantoms stuff!
5. What’s in the works for TEAM CHAOS in 2010?
We are always working on new material for our library, and hope to be getting on an indie label soon so we can put this shit on wax. We are goning to try to book as many shows as possible, so look for us in the Seattle clubs real soon playbaby!
6. What do you love about music?
Alan- I can be having a shitty day and hearing a couple of my favorite songs will always put a smile on my face.
Elliot- I love to make music. I love to take all the rules and break them. Without music, I could not live!
Look out for Team Chaos at a World Beats and Urban Streets dance-night (KTUB) in the near future..
