Gridlock Biography
Having gotten together under the spell of their surrounding techno/ electronic scene of San Francisco, Mike Wells and Cadoo decided to do their own thing by forming Gridlock in 1994.
Sighting acts such as Skinny Puppy and Autechre as a major inspiration, Gridlock made that apparent with their debut "The Synthetic Form" on Pen Dragon Records. Their aspirations of dark techno and heavy industrial continued with their 1999 release of "Further." ~ Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
