Factory Floor are a London-based band formed in 2005. They have been described as 'post-industrial', using live drums, synthesizers and noise.
The band formed in 2005, originally comprising Gabriel Gurnsey and Mark Harris, who were then joined by Dominic Butler. Harris later left, and they were joined by Nik Colk (aka Nik Colk Void), formerly of KaitO, in 2010. Gurnsey plays drums and drum machines, Butler plays modular synths and electronics, and Colk adds manipulated vocals, guitar and samples.
After two singles in 2008, and a mini-album, Talking On Cliffs in 2009, the band signed to Blast First's 'Blast First Petite' label, releasing several twelve-inch singles, including "Wooden Box", featuring a Stephen Morris remix, and an untitled ten-inch mini-LP in 2010.The latter was described by the NME as "a terrifying racket that simultaneously frazzles the nerves and slackens the bowels" and "an incessant drone of keyboards wired through twisted-metal synthesizers and thundering drums summoned from the heavens", writer Ben Hewitt giving it a 9/10 rating.The singles "Real Love" and "Two Different Ways" followed in 2011.
The band approached Morris by sending him a CD and asking if he would do a remix.After remixing "Wooden Box", Morris went on to work with the band as producer.
