Information About

Freezepop (band)




Freezepop is an Indie Synthpop / New Wave band composed of Liz Enthusiasm , the Duke of Pannekoeken (originally the Duke of Candied Apples, both pseudonyms of Kasson Crooker ), and the Other Sean T. Drinkwater (who claims to be a clone of the "original" Sean T. Drinkwater ). They formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1999 .

They have gained a number of fans through their work in video games, and several of their songs can be found on titles such as '''', along with many of the North American entries in the '' Dance Dance Revolution '' series. Many of these games were developed by Harmonix , a developer for which Kasson Crooker is the Audio Director.

Originally, their music was entirely composed on a small portable midi sequencer, a Yamaha QY-70, which has often been mistaken for a Game Boy . On more recent albums, they have expanded their toolkit due to a lack of variety in the sounds the QY-70 provided, but it still remains an important part of the composing process.

In addition to Freezepop, Kasson, who had previously been in fellow Boston band Splashdown , still records as a solo artist under the moniker Symbion Project . Sean is also a member of the bands Lifestyle and Karacter , and worked with the band Polystar on their debut album.
