  Star Wars: Community | The [Kaiburr] Crystal Method
When The Crystal Method's Scott Kirkland first saw A New Hope as a small child in a packed theater one summer evening in 1977, he discovered a fantastical galaxy full of droids, stormtroopers and cantina aliens that would forever change how he gazed upon the night sky.
Kirkland and his music partner Ken Jordan started The Crystal Method (their band name refers to a crush they both had on a girl named Crystal) in the mid-1990s, specializing in the breakbeat style of techno music.
Even with The Crystal Method's busy recording and touring schedule, Kirkland made a point to continue the tradition of seeing the latest Star Wars film by also supporting a good cause at the same time.

Formed in 1993 by Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland, Crystal Method is the most recent stop in a string of projects that led them from their native Las Vegas (and some forgettable four-track stabs at vocal house music), to the early-'90s L.A. rave scene.
The title was in reference to L.A.'s waning rave scene (burdened by constant police pressure and a string of random violent incidents) and became something of an anthem due to the endless barrage of remixes and alternate versions that appeared.
Scott Kirkland of the Crystal Method describes the process of creating music for runners and how a soundtrack for dishwashing just wouldn't work for their crowd.

 The Crystal Method - Free Music Downloads - MP3 Downloads - Download.com Music
The Crystal Method is globally respected and sought after for remixes, commercials, films, and tours, their sound now virtually synonymous with the term "electronica." Borrowing from trance, hip-hop, and techno, Jordan and Kirkland layer clouds of gritty synths, samples, and seductive vocals into pieces that are both complex and penetrating.
The Crystal Method's willingness to experiment and expand their sound to encompass different genres has made them one of the most widely known and respected electronic groups in the world.
The Crystal Method has challenged the mainstream's pre-conceived notions of what an electronic band can be, and their live shows during 1999's Family Values tour have proven they can stand toe to toe with rock heavyweights like Limp Bizkit, Filter, and Primus.

 Rotating Crystal Method
In the rotating crystal method, a single crystal is mounted with an axis normal to a monochromatic x-ray beam.
As the crystal rotates, sets of lattice planes will at some point make the correct Bragg angle for the monochromatic incident beam, and at that point a diffracted beam will be formed.
The chief use of the rotating crystal method is in the determination of unknown crystal structures.

 The Crystal Method: Tweekend (2001): Reviews
but The Crystal Method are still falling shy of the bar set by the Fatboy Slims and the Chemical Brothers of the world.
Tweekend certainly isn't mind-blowing or revolutionary, but it's abundantly clear that the Crystal Method has found its sound: the hard rock and hip-hop influences that inflected Vegas move to the forefront, and the tempo comes down a few notches, thus emphasizing thunderous bass and hardcore head-bobbing.
I like TCM's sound far more than the band that theyre often compared to "The Chemical Brothers", who only seem to have 3 or 4 good trax on each album.

 Vegas - The Crystal Method, Music Downloads - Online
Review: Perhaps it's unfair to label the Crystal Method as an American Chemical Brothers, since they are contemporaries of, not successors to, the English duo, but the comparison makes sense.
Like the Chemicals, the Crystal Method is into big beats.
There isn't much subtlety to their music, but there doesn't need to be, since their heady fusion of classic, late-'80s hip-hop, rave, techno, and rock is intoxicating on its own.
