Some Kind of Strange
Collide creates an aural sculpture that manages to defy categorization.It is at once deep and smooth as glass, with undulating waves of sound that seduce the senses. The essence of Collide is the coming together of two opposing entities to form a symbiotic whole and letting the sound orchestration unfold and develop into it’s own identity. This is probably why we hear so often that our music really does not sound like anything else.  We are not your traditional type of musicians.  We don’t really play music, we try to create soundscapes--layers of depth and emotion that dig into different levels of the psyche.Statik and I are complete clashing opposites that try to meet at the same place, combining the female and masculine energies, the cognitive and the subliminal, the strength and the mystery.- Some very special guests including cEvin Key of Skinny Puppy and Danny Carey of Tool lend their talents to "Some Kind of Strange"- Statik, Collide’s music half, has done programming for varioius artists including Tool, Powerman 5000, Love and Rockets, Prince and The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and is presently involved in the current reformation of Skinny Puppy. - kaRIN, Collide’s vocalist, has lent her vocals to several projects, including Frontline Assembly and cEvin Key’s (Skinny Puppy, Download) side project Plateau.
