Force Theory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Force Theory is a musical production team from Fort Greene, Brooklyn. The group was founded in 1997 and continues to produce music for films and perform a rather strange stage show. The band's name was derived from the unified force theory. In 2005 they scored the soundtrack to the film Favela Rising about a man who leads an art revolution out of the slums of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. In 2006 they scored the film Jesus Camp by Directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady (The Boys of Baraka).
Ionic of the band developed a "human piano" that uses low level electricity to put sound into people. He then attaches himself to a speaker system and the sound is amplified.
Force theory explains their style like this: Brooklyn-based Production Team Force Theory combines the melodic phrasing of soul and funk with the frenetic beats of electronica.
