about
Destructo Swarmbots was born from the imagination of Mike Mare, who remains the stalwart captain of the vessel that endlessly explores the furthermost reaches of experimental music. Born and raised in New York City, Mare started Swarmbots in 2001. Influenced by the sound of the city, and generally not intrigued by what was happening in music, the first Swarmbots sounds were ear-blistering instrumental manifestos hoping to decapitate whatever they came in contact with. Never wanting to impose conventions on his music, Mare has allowed Swarmbots to grow at it's own pace and on it's own terms. This has led to unique opportunities, including the inclusion of member Joshua Booth. As a former member of All Natural Lemon Lime Flavors, classical composer and music professor at Rutgers University, Booth is a core part of the group's sound. The duo of Mare and Booth, working together as Swarmbots, also joined the group Dälek, touring the world pulling double-duty shifts in both groups. Currently, Mare and Booth both compose music for Swarmbots while Mare tours independently. The recorded material as well as the live performances continue to change and progress, with added tortured rhythmic elements actually making showgoers dance (where they use to just stare in hypnotic fear). It's hard to find a review of a Destructo Swarmbots album that doesn't include the adjective "cinematic" in relation to the sound. Naturally, soundscapes and film scores have been a natural progression for
