Jackal & Hyde have been called "the purveyors of the hardcore-electro sound", a combination of electro beats, and psychotic keys. The band was formed in 1998 by partners Scott Weiser and Todd Walker in an effort to combine a harder edge sound with the dancefloor sensibility of Electro, Industrial and Breakbeat. Besides their original work, Jackal & Hyde's sound has been requested for multiple remix productions including Kid Rock, No Doubt, Love & Rockets, and Genitorturers among others.
