Dimension Zero are an experimental electronic/gothic rock band based out of Salt Lake City, Utah. Unlike traditional musical projects, Dimension Zero originated in 1992 as an online distributor for graphical/musical computer demo's created by groups like Future Crew, ACiD, and The Humble Guys. Monty Singleton, the SysOp of Dimension Zero was fascinated by the possibilities of what could be created on a personal computer and began experimenting with electronically generated music.

Dimension Zero's first worldwide success came from the single, "Live in Excess (Excess Is Best)", hitting mp3.com's top 40 charts on December 14, 2000. This momentum attracted the attention of broadcast commercial radio and landed the track on the syndicated "Chart-bound pop radio" show hosted by Randy Dewitt which was played in rotation by major FM stations (including WBLI in NY and WPYO in Florida.

Dimension Zero's next major success occurred on December 4th 2001 when multi-platinum artist "Public Enemy" founder Chuck D selected "Public Enemy #1 (Dimension Zero redu)" from a remix contest to appear on their 2002 album "Revolverlution" as a bonus track of the Japanese release.

Dimension Zero's third single, RePLiCa, was CNET's first #1 hit in June 2004 with 6,722 downloads it's first week. As of 2008, RePLiCa has been downloaded over 11,800 times.
