    Here's MOTOR's biog:

    MOTOR is Mr. No and Bryan Black. MOTOR is totally un-compromised music that
    deliberatly breaks any musical restrictions or sound barriers. Electronic music
    practising a punk ethic, MOTOR is unlike anything else: abrasive, strangely melodic,
    pulsating like a machine. A sound, which by no mistake, has put them in a class of their
    own.

    Mr. No comes from the industrial wastelands of Paris, and Bryan Black from
    Minneapolis. Now based in London, the duo formed as MOTOR in 2003, meeting
    by chance in a smoky Camden underworld where Mr. No was playing drums and
    Bryan was watching in awe. Bryan Black was seminal pop star Prince’s sound
    designer and programmer at Paisley Park Studios in the late 90’s before setting off
    to London to pursue his own musical projects whilst Mr. No arrived in London in 1989
    with a mission to turn drummers into drum machines.

    The duo have since gone on to remix the likes of Marilyn Manson’s ‘Personal
    Jesus’, Throbbing Gristle’s ‘Persuasion’ and most recently, Depeche Mode’s
    ‘Precious’ single. The hype even hit as far as Japan, where MOTOR were
    commissioned to remix the theme song for the final Godzilla film, Final Wars,
    collaborating this time with Felix Da Housecat.

    The MOTOR duo are also known for their work under the alias XLOVER who have
    an album, Pleasure & Romance, on DJ Hell’s esteemed Gigolo Records and their
    multiple collaborations with Felix Da Housecat include co-writing tracks off his latest
    LP Devin Dazzle & The Neon Fever as well as producing tracks for Princess
    Superstar and Japanese rock god Atsushi Sakurai.

    MOTOR’s last single, ‘Sweatbox’ was released in the summer of 2005, and became
    an anthem which topped the charts of everyone including Dave Clarke, Miss Kittin,
    Sven Vath and Alter Ego. ‘Sweatbox’ is hands down a monster record, with a
    crescendo drum avalanche that rocked the tiniest ‘sweatboxes’ to festival dance tents
    all over the globe last year. Recently ‘Sweatbox’ has re-surfaced as a mash-up mix
    on Gigolo under their XLOVER guise, fusing the band’s ‘Lovesucker’ with MOTOR’s
    dark acid destroyer to make ‘Suckbox’. Also Chris Liebing has delivered a punishing
    one-sided limited remix of ‘Sweatbox’ for novamute. 2006 has started with a bang!

    After releasing a string of raw, bold and innovative singles, MOTOR decided it was
    time to get into the studio and produce an album that would push things to an
    extreme not yet heard on the dancefloor in both power and energy. Their debut
    album, Klunk, showcases the duo’s most daring and exciting moments to date.
    Packed with dark menacing grooves, corrosive industrial drumming and the lost,
    tripped out cranial bending atmosphere of a party that just didn’t quite stop, Klunk
    ’joins the dots between Nitzer Ebb, Front 242, Final Cut, Plastikman, acid house and
    minimal techno creating a glorious dancefloor killing sound that is uniquely MOTOR.
    Preceded by the killer ‘Black Powder’, a single that is a perfect entry into the dark
    corners of the dancefloor, MOTOR will also be touring extensively throughout the
    year as a three piece with Bryan Black and Mr. No being joined onstage by psychotic
    wildman Hugo Menendez with plenty of vocals, live drums, synths, monochrom visuals and the kick drum punch to match. Make no mistake, MOTOR are back behind the wheel.

    they rocked the Nottingham Uni summer party last week. Like an indie/emo band gone electronic and very techno

    really cool to see live beats being played on a drum pad type thing, with loads of crazy synths and effects being churned out of the laptops

    bit of a crazy vocal interlude though, but still really evil. Not sure about the legs-apart stance, and long hair, but whatever you're into i guess
