ORIGIN:

Beginning as a short film concept in 2003, ULTRA PULVERIZE took the stage for the first time on Halloween 2004 and has since been entertaining crowds anywhere power outlets can be found. The beats are all tapped out by hand on a beat machine - live, not programmed. 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.
