Ford, a.k.a. Stefan Figiel and Stephan Faulkner (sampling, percussion, vocals). OTV’s primary musical style is electronic, and they make
extensive use of analog synthesizers, found sounds, field recordings, tape loops, and audio clips from films. When electronic samplers became
affordable in the mid-1980s, OTV was one of the first independent bands in the Montreal region to use digital sampling equipment (Ensoniq
Mirage, E-Mu, etc.). However, contrary to popular belief, their music is not totally electronically generated using synthesizers and samplers.
Guitarist Robert de la Carignan produced many of the sounds using different guitar techniques, including prepared guitar, electro-acoustic and
contemporary experimentalism in order to achieve his distinctive style. « hide |
