Could you please introduce yourself one by one ?
Dave: I´m Dave :-)
Bene:Yeah, and I am Bene...We both grew up in Schwandorf,Bavaria,Germany and we now live in Salzburg,Austria
Who made up the band name ? Has it a special meaning ?
Dave: It was a accidental mistake... A friend of us said something about dream theatre and we both understood Beef Theatre. It was a really drunk evening, about 2 or 3 years ago... :) we cannot really remember about more.
How did the band get formed? How did you meet yourself ?
Bene: Oh we know each other for a very long time...we have been very good friends for about 10 years...we started the band as a fun project about 2 years ago when dave bought himself a Korg M3...you know we both were bored of spending our daytime in front of the television or doing computer games all the time and soon we noticed that there was more behind it then just messing around on the Korg...So Beef Theatre was born...
May you describe your music ?
Dave: Hmmmm.. I would say alot of PAMPAMPAM and POWPOWPOW :)
It is the style of music we both really like the most. We see our music as a mixture of Electro and Punkrock! In the best case our listeners should feel like dancing and rocking the whole time when they listen to our tracks. The most important for us is that the listeners feel the same emotions like us!!! Party hard!!!
Bene:HELLYEAH!!!
Which tools and softwares do you use for producing your tracks ?
Bene:First of all a sixpack of beer and lots of sports cigarettes ^^
We are producing with Ableton 7 and lots of Vst Intruments and Effects.Moreover we have a Korg M3,a Midi Keyboard and a Midi Controller which are linked to the Proramm.And everytime when we find a good Sample we use it of course in our Tracks.
How do you compose your sounds?
Dave: Sometimes we start a new track alone and sometimes we start it together, It depends on how we have the time. Mostly we are searching for a rocking synth at first and then we play some melodies to a "four to the floor" beat. When the track is getting its structure we usually work together on the details of the track.
What are your main influences?
Bene:Basically everyting...When i was about 12 years old i started listening a lot of Grunge sounds and when i grew older i was more into a bit harder and heavier stuff like RATM,Pantera,Metallica,Refused and more of those kind of Bands...My passion for electronic music started as a teenager with Chemical Brothers,Prodigy etc. and it totally blew me away when I listened "Waters of Nazareth" by Justice :-)
Dave: I listened to a lot of rap and hip hop music in my youth. But i also liked pumping rock acts like RATM and stuff. But with all the years, hip hop music is getting more and more lame for me. Then there was a TV show called berlin house and it influenced me. So i was sitting at bene`s flat (like the most days in my youth) and we listened to chemical brothers, fatboy slim, Oizo`s Analog worms attack etc. And we were both totally into it! And then there was waters of nazareth...
Nowerdays our music is influenced by acts like Boys Noize, Justice, Stereo Heroes, Bloody Beetroots, Fukkk offf, SebastiAn, Mustard Pimp, Toxic Avenger, MSTRKRFT, Dirty Disco Youth, Disco Trash Music, Acid Kids and and and...

How do you prepare your gigs ?
Dave: We haven´t had any gigs yet but we are starting to play live in April 2010...Hellyeah!!!
Bene: No gigs,no audience...but a lot of good feedback on our Myspace site which is our motor to make more and more sounds
What do you think of german electro scene ?
Dave: As in every country there are acts we like and we dont like. But we dig it that the electro style is getting more and more accepted and that it makes the people go crazy on the dancefloor.
What can we expect of you in the near future?
Bene: Hopefully playing live as much as possible and a bunch of new tracks and rmxs.

HELL YEAH and PARTY HARD!!!
