BIO:
Future
Rock
is
electronic
sensory
overload.
The
trio
has
steadily
been
touring
the
US,
electrifying
audiences
and
developing
a
dedicated
following
during
their
journey.
Their
legendary
late
night
performances
at
festivals
and
after-parties
have
quickly
confirmed
their
status
at
the
top
of
the
live
electronic
scene.
Coupled
with
an
explosive
light
show,
FR
certifies
an
unparalleled
multi-sense
experience.
The
Chicago-based
trio
exhibits
an
uncommon
grasp
of
minimalist,
yet
visceral,
rock.
Skillfully
manipulating
live
loops,
synthesizers,
filters
and
an
electronic
drum
kit,
the
trio
succeeds
in
creating
a
larger-than-life
sound
that
sends
crowds
into
frenzies.
Mickey Kellerman and Felix Moreno utilize a myriad of synthesizers, electronics, and instruments to compose and arrange their instrumental music. The audience can rarely identify the origin of each sound. "I love that look of confusion... when the audience sees me play my bass and they have no idea what's coming out," says Moreno. Drummer Darren Heitz finishes FR's sound by blending acoustic and electronic drum timbres with live sampling through his synthesizers.
Kellerman explains, "We manage to pull off our live show while keeping pre-recorded samples to a minimum. Ninety-nine percent of our live show is live." This concept is at the core of Future Rock: technology has progressed so that real-time sampling and electronic synthesis can now occur on-stage. "Its really important to not get to geeky with our music. People want to hear songs with melodies or grooves they can dance to. Its a question of utilizing the new technology with the old song structure so that kids can rock out the same way, but to new sounds," Heitz adds.
