Digitizer - Terminal Velocity

One billion to the 1000th power light years away, exit Stargate, to the left✰

Music is the wormhole on my way home.

Originally intended as a band of sample mixers fixing beats for beat junkies and originally manned by Chris Roach and Marck and Leslie Hardy, "Anti-Melodic Chaotic Audio Assault Technicians" a.k.a. "A.M.C.A.A.T." created a spooky and beautiful combination of found and created rhythms and noise. =========== From microcassette voice recordings of dream retellings over frantic rolling drum fills and punchy dissonant bass slaps to samples of 1930's Italian standards over reverbed drum loops, A.M.C.A.A.T. was poised to create a subgenre of industrial music. Music that sounded like 5 djs mixing at the same b.p.m. but without benefit (or restraint) of musical structure.=========== As things deteriorated in a haze of alcohol induced fueding, the three quickly separated leaving a handful of low quality recordings held by only two members. A.M.C.A.A.T. was on the backburner, in jeopardy of setting off a smoke detector while the chefs slept through it and expired of carbon monixide inhalation. =========== Leslie, refusing to breath the foul air of failure, has set forth to rehearse and refine his primary functions as band member in the early days, beats and sound reinforcment. Advances in electronics, (Mainly, the addition of Macintosh computers as a recording platform. The early recordings were on 4-track cassette.) have allowed for higher-quality recordings and placed the A.M.C.A.A.T. sound randomly throughout cyberspace. The "noise" aspect of the 3-man colaboration has given way to actual melodies, as sparse as they may be, and chaos has given way to order, but A.M.C.A.A.T. is again active. =========== Fusing techno/goth/orchestra/hip-hop and industrial, Leslie is working and awaiting the return of inactive members to the fold. (Kinda like a creepy/weird/fucked-up version of "New Edition" on mind-altering drugs and no desire to sing a single note.) Stay tuned.

Digitizer is the Electro project of Christian Askvig from Norway. He started making music in the early 90's. Since then he has made music in different genres under different aliases. 

Christian is a self-proclaimed "synth-freak" who uses his arsenal of analog synths and drum machines to create an atmosphere that can best be described as "dystopian-future music". His musical background ranges from early synth music to "New School Electro"

Digitizer's first digital release "Computer Controlled" from 2011 garnered rave reviews and recognition from the Electro community around the world.

In 2016 Digitizer released the 5 track digital EP "New World Order" on the label Tropical Underground.

This was followed by several releases on the Electro collection series "Time Capsule"(808 Box) which the renowned Electro producer Alek Stark releases on his own record company Fundamental Records.

In early 2022, Digitizer will release his first vinyl EP "Future Technology", featuring 5 hard-hitting and funky Electro songs with dystopian future themes. The EP will be released on the German record company Pulse Drift Recordings.
