What does a good club track taste like? Is it salty from the sweat running down your face or is it sweet like that little orange pill you just swallowed? Well it’s time to tie on your raver-bib and start licking your chops, because a new breakthrough dance music producer/remixer LackofRAM is going to serve you up some nice & juicy meaty-beats, followed by delicious tech-melodies soaked in a zesty acid marinade and sprinkled with crunchy, glitchy megabyte morsels. LackofRAM may be the best tasting new dance artist of the decade, but all cheesy food analogies aside, this artist is very serious when it comes to adopting the latest space-age studio technology and then abusing and misusing it to the Nth-degree. LackofRAM is easily aroused by the thought of misbehaving computers, bad memory chips and unruly motherboards… Come on folks, who wouldn’t go on a hot date with a naughty cyborg? Yet, we digress. And that’s really the point isn’t it. Technology doesn’t always work the way its supposed to and LackofRAM has embraced these inherent flaws as a form of musical expression; making living art out of digital imperfections and syntax errors. Guess you can chalk it up to life… only a species as flawed as man could make such beautiful mistakes. Combined with smooth vocal hooks from exclusive remix artists, a strong sense of melody and form and the use of subtle textures to bombastic dynamics, LackofRAM has carved out a new spot for itself in the sonic spectrum. As the lines between human and robotic blur we can barely make out a silhouette in the DJ booth through the fog machines and laser grids. Who is this mysterious man? Is he really a man or machine? What is his brain programmed to do? Does he have a soul or is he just a cold, heartless abomination? As it turns out, LackofRAM has more roots in humanity than we initially suspected. Started merely as a remixing side project by songwriter/producer/music technology twit Taylor Martyr, LackofRAM quickly took on a life of its own after partnering up with producer/engineer/semi-pro ice hockey evangelist Nathan Jenkins at ActionGoNow Studios in Hollywood CA. They were approached by several independent artists to begin sculpting new smashing electro beats and epic big-room dance mixes for the masses. One of these remixes was for indie-rock band Echo Echo, and the ensuing track “Good Morning (LackofRAM remix)” was quickly licensed to Andy Caldwell’s label Uno Recordings and has since been garnering attention from many well known international DJ’s. LackofRAM also got the chance to put its stank on a number of original projects including new electro-pop diva Sparkalize, as well as churning out more remix butter for the coming year.
