Plastique

There are multiple artists under this name: 1) From London, UK, Plastique is a British/Brazilian band filled with pounding dance beats, power-chords, dirty synths and so-sexual-it’s-almost-perverted vocals and lyrics. Gabriel (a producer) and Anelise (an actress) met in London in 2005 and quickly became good friends. They had planned to write music together, however she was already due to return to her native Brazil later that year, so the project was indefinitely put on hold. Back in Brazil she met Fabio (a graphic designer) and returned to London with him in 2009.

The music is mostly instrumental with minimal vocals which Petersen sings. It originally started in 2001 as the soundtrack for a friend's film. It developed into a solo project with the first release in 2002 on Tiger Style Records. In between touring with The Faint and Beep Beep, Petersen found time to write music for Broken Spindles. The song, "Song No Song," from fulfilled/complete was used in a car commercial for Lexus

Jargon

Tim Gates – Guitar, Vocals
Trevor Montgomery – Bass
Rich Douthit – Percussion
Jason Cauge – Guitar JARGON started out as a more or less noise ridden, live hard rock band, better known as, for some reason, alternative, which they don’t think that they really are, but at the time everything not usual was called alternative. In 1998 JARGON released their self-titled debut, “Jargon” (produced by Robinson Eikenberry) on Lobster Records. It wasn’t punk, it wasn’t hard-core or goth but it was moody and it rocked. JARGON, of course, thought their record was mainstream.
