Trybet is Baltimore's Mike Parker & Aric Rist. On the electronic and
experimental music scene since 1983, they have previously released music
ranging from bone-crunching industrial noise to aggro beat, angst-laden
dance. Using the experience built up with these projects, along with
the array of electronic gadgets they have amassed with which to produce
sound, Mike & Aric now bring us Trybet.
With a name derived from merging tribal rhythms with Tibetan samples,
Trybet serves up a helping of modern, propulsive rhythms and beats fused
with the dark, moody sounds of ancient analog synths. One listen and
you'll appreciate why Aric & Mike like to cite "European space music" as
one of their major influences...
