ARTIST BIO
“Plug it straight into my brain.“
Nevada Hardware is a Chicago-based industrial breakbeat project known for fusing distorted guitars, chopped samples, and massive hook-heavy grooves. Their early-2025 release Split Scene (Thinkbreak Records) earned underground acclaim, landing top positions on year-end lists from I Die: You Die, ReGen Magazine, and A Model of Control. Nevada Hardware has built a reputation for heavy, kinetic dance music that nods to industrial, techno, and late-90s rave culture while staying sharply contemporary.
Known for high-energy live performances, Nevada Hardware delivers relentless sets that keep dancefloors moving. Live shows feature real-time sequenced video created in collaboration with multimedia artist and labelmate royb0t, tightly synced to the music to create an immersive, high-impact audiovisual experience.
