DisinVectant

electronic noise played on a xylophone.

James Brown screaming through a lump of ice.

useless except in times of emergency, the last resort.

"A fantastically eerie soundtrack for some sort of an electronic wasteland...makes you feel like you stumbled on a drunken poetry reading in the post-apocalypse." Tim O'Keefe, Brown Student Radio (Rhode Island)


"Mercilessly dark vocals, thrust from the bowels of the earth, immediately confront you and take you to the darker side. This is music at its harshest." Tony Bates, Highlands 100.7FM (Australia)

"they use the industrial background of their hometown and appropriate everything from noise and rhythm up to aggression and lyrics" (Walter Robotka, Evolver)

"Their sound is the sound of alienation. Or, at least, outsiderdom. It's dark and machinistic and it reeks of fear and disaffection and frustration. Of dirt. Of grime. Of rot and decay. Of things that need DisinVecting...black like a powercut, through circumstance not calculation" (Jimmy Possession, robots+electronic brains)

"...sounds like a city eating itself in slow motion while a thousand trains go rusty at double speed." (Vincent Drummond, Virgin Records)

"sinister electronics, heavy breaks and spoken word processed vocals. Dark stuff with powerful lyrics and an almost apocalyptic feel. Some where between abstract hip-hop and abstract electronica. (Ant, Norman's Records)

Personnel:

YinTov. Synth bass, keys, programming, effects, vocals and percussion.
The Egg plant. Vocals/babbling, drums, percussion, found sounds and modified electronic toys.

Mechanically Reclaimed Music

Lo-fi, post whatever, electronic and organic grooves, improvisation, analogue synths and junk percussion. The Egg planting his beaters mercilessly to create diatribal rhythms, stuttering sounds, murmuring voices, the Yin lacing the tracks with bleak soundscapes, oppressive and cinematic, awash with grainy chords and spiky basslines.

They have recently completed sessions/live appearances for Resonance FM (Johny Brown's Mining for Gold show), 209 Radio Cambridge (UK) and MVS Mexico, and are in the process of recording their second album.
