The Square Root of Evil is an electronic musician from Vancouver, Canada. While studying communications at university, she was introduced to electronic music production, discovering she could make all the strange noises that she loved into her own music. Since then, SROE has appeared on compilations in Canada, the US and the UK, has a netlabel release on Belladonna Records and has another EP in the works. On average she plays live shows monthly, regularly in Vancouver and several in the US and Europe. Besides making music and editing videos, short films and television programs, she runs 2 internet radio stations, promotes shows in Vancouver and has been an active member of the online electronic music community since 1996.

Square Root of Evil music has elements of drum n bass, breakcore, techno and glitch, with bleeps and bloops from old video games and ample weirdness thrown into the mix, usually in the form of a silly melody or 3. She leans towards frantic & somewhat complex rhythms made with crunchy low-fi sounds, and tries to make people smile while they dance.

hey hey, thanks so much - can echo the sentiment :D I really love that Anomalous tune of yours (not online here, but who cares..) -- Yala Bina is wicked too, good stuff. hopefully an STFU Vancouver will take off at some point.. if all else fails you'll have to tour Europe again.
