My Cell Phone is Better Than Your Cell Phone is a project that arose from boredom, depression and illness. The name is meant to make fun of consumers who sleep on the street in order to get the latest fashion in electronic gadgetry.
Based in Northern Ontario, Canada, MCPIBTYCP is a one man project. Taking sound sources such as nature, video game consoles, pedals, filters and children's toys and combining them with traditional instruments like guitars, violins, keys and drums, MCPIBTYCP can best be described as ambient noise.
Started in late 2007, MCPIBTYCP has made 2008 a very prolific year. With 3 EPs (eyes like teeth, MCPIBTYCP and Precautions) and 1 full-length (The Broken Children) it has been a busy year. But not content to rest on that, MCPIBTYCP has plans for 3 more splits, 2 EPs and possibly a full-length by year's end.
MCPIBTYCP is perfect for fans of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, A Silver Mt. Zion, Set Fire To Flames, Sigur Ros, Mum, Mono, and the many other great artists in that genre that defies genres.
All of the music by MCPIBTYCP is, and always will be, available for free downloads at www.myspace.com/mycellphoneisbetter and through various netlabels.
