An experimental music band from Columbus, Ohio founded by Mark Gunderson in 1986, The Evolution Control Committee (ECC) typically uses uncleared and illegal samples from various sources as a form of protest against copyright law. They are one of the pioneers of the mash-up, where two or more songs are mixed together into a new track.
The ECC also produces numerous audio experiments, often involving the disfiguring of compact discs, and has produced a few video works as well, ranging from re-edited 50’s corporate shorts to a Teddy Ruxpin reciting the works of William S.Burroughs.
