Cruise [Ctrl] is a Belgian electronica duo headed by John C. (composer / programmer) and Gore (sonic manipulator). Their influences range from minimalist noise acts all the way to hard electro.

Two albums are released on Divine Comedy Records: I HEARD IT! (2008) and HOW’S ANNIE? (2010).

The duo also record drone-atmospheric tunes: the TWO.LONE.SNOWMEN.SESSIONS. Episode 1 & 2 were issued on Meka Productions in March 2009. The following episodes will be featured on this website.

A North American version of How’s Annie? is edited by Signifier in 2011. This reedition features two bonus remixes.

The third album (…ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM) is published in 2012 by Signifier (US indie label). It features 8 original tracks and new collaborations with Dirk Ivens (Dive, Sonar, Absolute Body Control…) and Sigma (Komplex).

2016 : “Let’s Rock!”.

After some exciting collaborations (with Richard 23 & Patrick Codenys, Holm/Mirland, Fractional…), our fourth album is published in the early 2016, 10 years after our first gig and our first EP. It features 8 original tracks, no collaborations, no voices, no remixes. A raw album that end a cycle open with …are not what they seem. What’s next?
