Remote Control Frequencies, or RCF for short, is a Chicago-based amoebic musical project. Blending together genres including hip-hop, psychedelic rock, drum and bass and electronica, these sounds are then combined with samples, vocals, instruments, recorded and improvised noise, gadgets and concepts to form new sound potential.
In 2005, after spending years circulating short run CDRs and underground mixtapes, R-Rock resurfaced with RCF's debut full-length CD "20,000"; a musical reinterpretation of Jules Verne's classic literary work "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea". This CD featured guest appearances by free jazz alto-sax legend Wally Shoup (recorded during R-Rock's stint in Seattle, WA), no wave clarinet from Michael Thomas Jackson (recorded in North Carolina) and underground Texas MC Jonny Fear.
Drummer L. Grant Meadows (also known as "LG") joined the group upon relocating to Chicago in 2006. The duo of LG and R-Rock began work on what would eventually become the "Tempus" CD.
R-Rock (also known as Rob R-Rock) began recording in the late 1980s with North Carolina-based hardcore/punk group Naked Angels. LG played in Life Support, Naked Angels, Shatterhed, Endgame, and Mr Frost in the 90s, and later played with instrumental group The Sirens after moving to Chapel Hill.
