volt.ctrl's shows are striking performances: armed with only a box cutter [yes, one of those hardware store utility knife things!] he attacks pop, spoken word or ambient records during hisdj sets, shocking vinyl enthusiasts. this brutal destruction is however an act of subtle construction: the cut forces the needle to jump an produce a loop. mixed together these random loops turn intostrange ambient soundscapes or highly addictive techno grooves. this exciting approach to loops also influences the production of his own music. you can still feel the seemingly endless continuity of the vinyl performances in the tracks of mr volt. following the principles ofminimalism, nuances of the loops are altered beat after beat and added with synthesizer effects to open the way into multi-dimensiona sound worlds.
