L I V E :

"I really enjoyed your sound. It was pretty awesome, great! The sound was unreal. Cool group." - Krissie Harris (Oakton Col. talent-buyer)

"Preston Klik's Ritual is wonderful! I like your music and the way you present it: all of you look and sound as individuals, which also makes your performance a great show. Circue du Soleil involves the same kind of music that you do. I am strongly impressed, and even enthusiastic! - Inna

"Preston I LOVE what you are doing ... baby baby baby. Let's do a really cool double bill sort of thing" - Fareed Haque

"Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Aw, yeah! Great for dancing. One big party mix. Really fun, lots of energy." - Literati



"I really like Juno Reactor, FSOL, Aphex Twin so POINTY TEETH was right up my alley... You guys packed the place, you had 'em dancing too!" - Brent B, booker



"Preston's, really puts on one heckuva show. His ability to attract and orchestrate Interesting People Doing Interesting Things keeps manifesting itself, and manifested in a truly remarkable PRESTON KLIK'S RITUAL show tonight. A wonderful evening!" - Rajiv



" There is nothing I, or any planner, appreciate more than an act that is willing to work with their clients to make an event happen. The music, the tempo, the look of the band, Preston's attention to details... his energy level reverberated throughout the room. The show was rockin'! I was also very impressed by the amount of fun the band had on stage. The best BMG Music event we've ever had." - Activities Event Specialists



"Small, tight, potent! The DJ added interesting rhythmic texture with the scratching. The visuals had the patented "Preston-Eye-Candy" impact. A lot of stage presence. " - Jason K



"Pointy Teeth created a tapestry as each song painted a story for the audience. I was so happy --a really fun show." - Scrfclamb

"This was the first time folks actually stuck around to hear the band and also the photo thing was amazing!!" - Krissie Harris (Oakton Col. talent-buyer)



"I call PRESTON KLIK'S RITUAL "organica". It's got all the elements that endear me to electronica while defying the common criticism that the form is clinical and emotionless." - P Hyde



"Pointy Teeth's trancey, dancable sound added a welcome departure from our standard fare of folk, indie, and punk influenced rock at Carleton College. Students used the phone to call their friends to tell them to come down. The act was friendly, communicative, easy to work with, and put on a great show. Are they a band or a DJ? The sound included samples and scratch pads, plus live percussion, voice, and fun musical instruments. I would be glad to work with them again." - Angela McLaughlin, Ass't Dir. of Campus Activities, amclaugh@acs.carleton.edu



"POINTY TEETH, delivered freaky electronica that sounded like the music to a buddy cop movie about an absinthe-addicted fallen angel and Catholic-schoolgirl turned killer-cyborg who have teamed up to fight crime in a neon-encrusted future world. That's a compliment, by the way. Their heavy bass and drumbeats was flung together in ever more creative ways by Preston Klik. Singer / dancer / scratcher DJ Carbon Star called out a series of sounds that donıt quite form words. Scat forb the new millennium. She danced mechanically but rhythmically, a spangled angel for the masses. Preston played several different instruments, some of which are so bizarre Iım not sure they even have names." - NUVO Mag (Indianapolis IN)



"Preston and Desiree (DJ Carbon Star) are absolutely amazing to watch live. Dez's beautiful voice and "scratching" combined with Preston's sampler wizardry is a show not to be missed." - 3D Productions



"Each song blended seamlessly into the next without a break, but each was recognizable and quite able to stand by itself. Above all, the PRESTON KLIK'S RITUAL show was exciting." - centerstage chicago


"I was struck by PT's energy, enthusiasm, and sexy nasty Portisheadish / Red Snapperish / Prestonian vibe" - David Young



"POINTY TEETH kicked ass. The demo CD was OK, but not at all representative of what I saw. There's no way I can adequately express the amount of positive feedback I got on you guys. "Oh my God, that was INCREDIBLE" might be a reasonable average paraphrase ... astounded as to how plugged into each other you seemed to be." - UIUC talent buyer



"A really big PRESTON KLIK'S RITUAL sound in the room, transforming it into an interdimensional dancehall." - The Zebulun



"Eight out of ten of my friends agree -POINTY TEETH f***ing rocks." - Mystechs



"PRESTON KLIK'S RITUAL knows how to captivate an audience. They know how to solo, and they know how to listen and play as an ensemble. So rare, but so imperative. PRESTON KLIK'S RITUAL is beautiful, refreshing. Musicians that know how to play their instruments."
