Geek Rhythms   
10/12/2004 05:37AM
Contributed by: GKRHYTHMS

New ReleasesThe premise of this CD is to introduce the Geek world to non-Geeks and inject the technical matter with some levity that it deserves. Technology is so much a part of everyday life and man-machine interface is so ubiquitous that it is hard to imagine that, on the scale of human evolution, technology has very young roots. Lyrics are written to introduce and explain technology terms to laymen and the developers hope aspiring technologists and engineers will enjoy the music and lyrics.

Above all the main idea is to have some fun. The song “Enjoy The Ride” is set to techno music and written with computer science in mind and speaks of how transistor works, then goes onto introduce concepts in networking and wireless areas. The song “Free Energy” is set to hip hop music and lyrics are written from the perspective of chemical engineers and introduces terms like entropy, free energy, distillation, control loop etc.

Geek Dreams is a favorite for all those aspiring to be engineers and speaks in rap like language to brain muscles vs body muscles while talking about scalars, vectors and EMF, Newtons’ third law of motion, very interesting. Metamorphosis is set to fast paced music and explores the world of mechanical engineers with concepts like Bernoulli’s energy equation, gear ratio, robots and propulsion scheme.

Core of the band is GK, who wrote the lyrics, Rikki, who conceived the musical interpretation of lyrics along with Jasz, composed and arranged the music and also did the mastering. Jasz is the lead vocalist for all songs and dug into his singing experience as well as his engineering knowledge to enhance the lyrics. Annette Philip and Brennon provided support vocals and bass guitar respectively.
