Liberated from the rules of traditional music, the BTO continues to reinvent itself with every song. Yet through the din, listeners can hear elements of dub, metal, musique concrète, kraut, French house, and garage to name but a few genres they routinely explore. Throughout, the BTO maintains office chic garb contemporaneous with the typewriters they play.

Founded in 2004, The Orchestra got its start appearing at house parties, art galleries, and street festivals. The group has since performed on local, national, and international radio and television and appeared in the documentary California Typewriter. BTO has released several singles and five albums, the most recent of which is a collection of remixes entitled Delegation.
