Mission Giant began making electronic music in the Fall of 1996. Gavin DeCuir and M, started to coax sounds from any device they could find which had an electric pulse. A third Texan, Aaron Graves, armed with only a banjo and an old turntable soon joined up. The band began to craft music with a mix of instruments including vintage synthesizers, children's toys, assorted drum machines, old exercise records on vinyl, pawn shop Casios, and a Sega Genesis video game system. In 1998, two other fellows, former Dooms U.K. member Corbett Sparks (D.J. Geeky C.), and former Good/Bad Art Collective member Shane Culp, enlisted to assist Mission Giant in the creation of songs. In 2004, filmmaker Josh Eager and North Texas Game Boy champion Jermy Johnson were recruited to help Mission Giant with their sights and sounds. Membership may never stop growing.
