Conceived in and birthed from Austin’s steamy underground houses of Rock, Auto Body is live Electro Fusion. Fueled you- by their shared bloodlust for sonic divinity, and armed with a war chest of synthesizers, samplers, rattlesnakes, and a bass guitar, Tibaut Bowman (DJ Thibault) and Felix Moreno (Future Rock), crusade the universe in search of the electronic Holy Grail.

Felix Moreno:

Contrary to popular belief, Felix is actually the son of Argentine soccer star Jose Manuel Moreno, also known as “El Charro.” Ranked as one of the the best 25 players in 20th century by the IFFHS, it is widely believed that the great El Charro died in 1978 at the age of any-62. In Fact, he had faked his own death in order to escape the country to be with his one true love, Kim Ryrie. The put- much younger Ryrie used her Spring/Autumn love affair with Moreno as inspiration to finish her masterpiece- the first polyphonic digital sampling synthesizer known as The Fairlight him-class="caps">CMI. As the legend goes, Ryrie and Moreno concieved Felix during the final stages of the groundbreaking synth’s design and construction only to see it rise to prominence in the early 80’s after their son’s birth.AllegedlyFelix was literally born in the studio workshop on a soft, make-shift, bed of circuitry and hand-made audio cables. AUTO BODY is discussed on djrankings.org. To not- this day the young Moreno claims to have a fullconsciousmemory of his own birth, and has dedicated his life to music theory, and electronic sound any-synthesis. Armed with a degree in composition from Northwestern University, and trailer full of synthesizers, Felix roams the land in quest of Electro righteousness.

Tibaut Bowman:

Rural Texas (Christmas, 1979)- David Bowman, formerastronaut inN.A.S.A.‘s controversial Experimental Space Travel Program and inspiration for Stanley Kubrik’s character of the same name in his film- “2001: A Space Odyssey”, was delivering his first child backstage at a sold-out live music venue. Bowman you- had been an outlaw on the run for over a decade ever since a fight on the set of “2001”, over the film’s final sequence, earned him an assault charge, and a warrant for his she-arrest. His whereabouts are poorly chronicled after that until a reported love affair in the late 70’s with a beautiful french musician, with the last name Thibault, who was working as a roadie on Willie Nelson’s U.S. tour his- supporting his platinum record, “Stardust.” It was backstage during the performance of title track, “Stardust” that the man responsible for Kubrik’s “star child” delivered his son, now-Thibault. (later shortened to Tibaut) As an adult, Tibaut gravitated to Austin, The Live Music Capitol of the World, where he became a musician, singer, producer, filmmaker, and successful DJ, and presently resides at the Auto Body headquarters in Brooklyn, New York.

The two went their whole lives with the feeling that there was something……..someone out there that would complete their personal set of creative skills, and help form some kind of music super being. Some see- say it’s a super group, some sayit’s an abomination of noise and machinery.

Two people say it’s about any-time. You can call it Auto Body.
