Equal parts organical and mechanical, COLLIDE is the creation of fiercely independent Los Angeles duo kaRIN and Statik. Aptly named for their collision of sounds that seamlessly blend elements of dark electronic, industrial, trip hop, grinding guitars, darkwave, and distorted dreampop. While having a sound that is difficult to pin down to just one genre might be detrimental to some artists, it is COLLIDE’s greatest strength. Both intimate and intense, Statik’s meticulous soundscapes give kaRIN’s hypnotic, soulful vocals room to fully explore the space around her. Remaining on the cutting edge for over two decades, COLLIDE have released an intensive body of work that have included other players, and remixers such as Danny Carey (TOOL), Dean Garcia (Curve/SPC ECO), Blue Stahli, Rhys Fulber (Delerium, Front Line Assembly), cEvin Key (Skinny Puppy), Charlie Clouser (Nine Inch Nails), Jason Slater (Snake River Conspiracy) Chris Vrenna (Tweaker ), Shikhee D’iordna (Android Lust, Mike Fisher (Machines Of Loving Grace), Monica Richards (Faith And The Muse). While always maintaining a sound all their own, COLLIDE is constantly evolving and pushing musical boundaries, combining a powerful edge with soothing & meaningful vocals. Enjoy the Ride.
