brian botkiller is and electronic musician, promoter, producer and performer from Albuquerque, NM.  Born and raised in the arts and music scene, brian's sound is  like nothing you'd expect from most electronic musicians.  A multi-multi-instrumentalist playing and programming drums, keyboards, synths, bass and vocals,  brian is also the drummer for the nationally-known Industrial acts Diverje and synthpop project zRAM, as well as a session drummer for Punktronica act Vertigo Venus and many other projects.  brian is a studio musician with over ten years of experience and a working musician in the New Mexico music scene.   

brian's sound is like that of electronic dance legends Underworld tossed in a blender with Miles Davis, KMFDM and the punk rock sensibility of the Talking Heads.  Top off with a bit of live art-jam visual projections and propaganda, and you have a concoction to get a room moving.  Will it blend?  Oh yes, it will.

Wait, did he say art jam?  Yes, he did.  Working with Video Jockey and visual propagandist, creator and image manipulator Panoption, brian botkiller's live show consists of an audiovisual explosion on your eyes and ears.  Your feet and body will follow, and you'll be moving.

brian is one of the hardest working men in electro - he plays upwards of 50 shows a year, rocking the stages of raves, bars, festivals and beyond.  There's something here for everyone - something to chill to, dance to and mosh to.  Live keyboards, live re-looping, sequencing and vocals.  This is he heart of real live electronic music.

As a promoter in the live electronic music scene of New Mexico and the Southwest,  brian has seen over ten years in the scene and the music that comes with it, and isn't stopping anytime soon.  He's been voted best in New Mexico at what he does, and has worked with some of the biggest names in underground electronic music, such as En Esch (Slick Idiot, ex-KMFDM frontman). This is Intelligent Dance Music for the true faithful; more real than anything on the radio, and more fun than any average band.  Hear the future, now.
