Biography
theINFORMATI started as the musical collaboration between a young, progressive composer and a postmodern, experimental guitarist. Their first self-produced, independently released album, Requiem, is a startlingly mature example of 2 musicians far beyond their time. By fusing together classical arrangements and language with modern instruments and styles, theINFORMATI have defied genre and look to leave a lasting impression on the contemporary landscape of music.
Currently, theINFORMATI are planning an intimate series of performances in support of Requiem's 2nd edition, featuring remixes from local area DJ’s. In collaboration with Good Life Boston owner, Peter Fiumara, this remix compilation is due out this summer.

Written and recorded over 18 months, theINFORMATI carefully crafted a record that borrows from all styles, blending together electronic rhythms and pianos with psychedelic guitars and dub bass, all underneath a classical Latin choir, Heavily inspired by British acts, Radiohead and Massive Attack, TS and Mark sought out a studio that would house the proper tools necessary to create such a competitive, dynamic record. The magic took place at Sanctum Sound in Boston, where the studio's owner, Steve Catizone, served as both Engineer and Producer, bringing to life the arrangements Mark and TS had scored over the last year. The record also features guest appearances from Caspian guitarist, Phillip Jamieson and bass from former Constant's member, Ben Fowlie, and drums from Seneca's Brad Caetano.
Requiem has been featured on MTV.com, spun on the BBC and named one of XLR8R’s Top 10.
