For those who like their electronic works to have a bit of a razor’s edge to them, 
Case Trick present dark, introspective sounds, and by pairing them with this visual component, 
one can begin to get a grander picture as to whence the pair’s work comes. -Nick Spacek, The Pitch

A forerunner of EDM (electronic digital media) 
casetrick is the discordant, authentic, automatic union 
of instrumentalists Casey R Toews and Patrick di Santo.

alright

From North America, they met while Toews was working on his master's in psychology
and Disanto had begun psych rehabilitation for a TBI (traumatic brain injury) and CTE
(chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disorder). 


				

The duo continue to work on research projects 
and spend most of their time experimenting 
with frequency and platforms of media.

Currently both are contributing researchers at the University of Kansas.
