Quadratic is a collaboration of seasoned DJ Chris Widman and developer Colin Harris of Abstract Science—Chicago. Widman and Harris craft dancefloor oddities and headphone bangers that draw influence from Luke Vibert, Monolake, Orbital, Si Begg and Deadbeat, among many others.

Chris Widman is best known as a DJ and host of the Chicago weekly radio show Abstract Science on WLUW 88.7fm. Over the years, he has shared the bill with a diverse cast underground luminaries—Amon Tobin, Cinematic Orchestra, Jaga Jazzist, M83, Meat Beat Manifesto, Monolake, Plaid, The Orb, UNKLE and Ulrich Schnauss, to name a few—and has DJ’d every type of event imaginable, from raves to operas. Originally from Kansas City, Missouri, Widman’s interest in making music has always centered on percussion, starting with snare drum in grade school band, and quickly progressing to trap kit and drum line, until 1995, when DJing took over. Inevitably, he exchanged analogue instruments with drum machines, samplers and synths. But old habits die hard and Widman continued his percussion studies in 2003, taking up West African percussion at the Old Town School of Folk under Tam Tam Mandingue professor Michael Taylor.

Colin Harris is best known as a web application developer and agile
