EC8OR

EC8OR (pronounced Ecator, a contraction of "Eradicator") is a German digital hardcore band founded in 1995 by Patric Catani (real name - Patric Cremer) and Gina V. D'Orio (real name - Gina Vaporjieff D'Orio) and signed by Alec Empire's Digital Hardcore Recordings record label. The music was in the same vein of Atari Teenage Riot's style of early Breakcore and hardcore techno with a punk edge, which led to EC8OR been overlooked by fans of digital hardcore recordings, but EC8OR employed more low-res ideas as the first album was entirely composed on Amiga 500 and with a microphone.
==Links to Peel==
Peel seemed to have discovered the group in 1995 when he played a track from their AK-78 EP. Further material from the group were played on his shows, including a session they recorded in 1999, which only lasted 7 minutes long. 
Peel nominated their album, 'World Beaters', as one of his records of the month for November 1998 (Peel's Record Box) and their single. 'The One And Only High And Low', as one of his records of the month for October 2000 (Peel's Record Box).
Peel would also play some of Patric's solo material as well as his collaborations with other artists under the name of Lost Treasures.
After Peel's death in 2004, it was later found out that he had several of their albums in his Record Collection: E.
