Members Chris Randall

Chris Randall is an American musician, and the former frontman of Sister Machine Gun. In 1998, he created a side-project called Micronaut, focusing on more instrumental music that was not necessarily appropriate for Sister Machine Gun. After disbanding Sister Machine Gun in 2007, he began his solo career and released the EP Cheap Sensation and the full-length album The Devil His Due. Chris also collaborates with Wade Alin from Christ Analogue on the IDM project Scanalyzer.

He was featured in the August 1996 issue of Playgirl as being among the ten sexiest male Rock musicians.[1]

In 1998, he founded Positron records. He also runs Audio Damage, a creator of music software plug-ins and synthesizer modules.

YACHT Controversy

In January 2009, Pitchfork reported that Jona Bechtolt of YACHT publicly admitted to using pirated versions of Audio Damage software. The statements resulted in heated words between Bechtolt and Randall, in what Pitchfork described as a "Nerd Flame War." [3]
