For 20 years, the electronic duo, The Crystal Method have been making cutting-edge music. They celebrate this with a fifth studio album via Tiny e Records/CO5 Music that features live instrumentation and powerful vocalists including "Over It," which features The Voice runner-up Dia Frampton. It also features a broad range of collaborators including country singer LeeAnn Rimes, following a chance meeting in mid-air, Scars on Broadway's Frankie Perez and Miami mainstay artists, Afrobeta, Nick Thayer and Mau5trap label artists Le Castle Vania. It debuted at No.1 on US iTunes Electronic Album Chart.
They decided to name their fifth offering The Crystal Method, as not only do they feel it is a defining release, Scott added "We hate coming up with album titles, and it was just easier to call it 'The Crystal Method'".
This latest album follows in the footsteps of their platinum-selling debut album, Vegas, their 2009 Grammy-nominated, Divided By Night and compositions for film and television including Bones and Real Steel. Formed in 1993 in Las Vegas, Nevada, The Crystal Method are electronic music duo Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland.
