Nevada Base are Albert (vocals, guitar), Andy (bass, guitar, vocals), Gus (synthesisers, vocals) and Jay (synthesisers, drum machines and “more cowbell”).

The music is inspired by the usual songwriting suspects (need we list giants like the Beatles or the Smiths?) with sounds adapted from 80s synthpop - Human League, Depeche Mode, New Order - and, of course, Kraftwerk. References have also been made to the likes of Talking Heads, the Cure, Joy Division and Gang of Four. Recently, notions of early 80s Italo Disco, early 90s sampling mayhem and even elements of late 90s trance have crept in, almost by surprise.

The songs are about noise-control officers, mental illness, robotics, geographical obstacles, mysterious women from space, electricity, love and the importance (or otherwise) of timeliness. The end result is about making heartfelt, thoughtful - danceable - pop; aspiring to that noble goal of music both for the head and the feet. However, if this leaves you confused as to whether you should dance or think, then just dance.
