A veritable "jack in the box", Jason Bazinet has worked with industrial giants like Chemlab, 16volt and Front Line Assembly as a drummer - most recently on the 2010 Midi Ghetto Tour in the US and Canada and FLA's (mostly) European 2010 tour. Even going so far as to do three drum-gigs a night for most of the Midi Ghetto Tour (16volt and Chemlab, and also filling in for Left Spine Down). In addition, he's involved to greater and lesser degrees with 64K, Monicom, The Crills as well as the elusive and enigmatic Loyal Opposition. It would be easy to forget he's also founder, only constant and currently sole member of SMP (Sounds of Mass Production) - the coldwave/industrial rock-rap crossover hybrid of a monster. Formed in the early 90's, SMP debuted with Stalemate on the (in-)famous Re-Constriction in 1995 and has since gone on to release four more full-length albums, two remix albums, one mixtape and too many collaborations and remixes to count. Needless to say, the news of a new album in the works got me all kinds of excited - especially since Bazinet announced that 2008's remix album Pissing on the Legacy would be the end of SMP.
