Combinator (Seattle’s Sean Fairchild) melds virtuosic yet melodic proggy elements, electro-funk, soulful vocals, and glitchy breakbeat and drum'n'bass into a dizzying, post-futurist dreamscape. A 6 string bass-wielding, controller-manipulating singer/songwriter, Combinator comprises the creative heart of the system, while routinely collaborating with other innovative artists. An Emmy-awarded artist, he is supported by MTD Basses, Gruv Gear, Gallien-Krueger, GHS Strings, Bartolini Pickups, Tsunami Cables & others.

"Funk, progressive, industrial, ambient, drum & bass, metal...Seinfeld?…fans can now see that the ear hurricane that is re//combinator didn’t just come from a jam session between a skilled bassist and electronic producer on ketamine, though one might wonder..." -Your EDM
"This artist is visionary and innovative. His industrial and futuristic compositional style not only demonstrates a great musical and technical knowledge but at the same time a propensity to experiment out of the ordinary." -Edgar Allen Poets
