Artist Detailed Info: Cv313

cv313 is one of the many monikers of the Ann Arbor, Michigan-based (formerly Detroit/Chicago-based) electronic music producer Stephen Hitchell (aka Soultek, Intrusion, Variant, etc.). 'cv' is an abbreviation for 'control voltage,' while 313 refers to the telephone area code for the city of Detroit, Michigan. cv313 is commonly described as dub techno, although Hitchell himself does not use the term to describe his music, preferring instead to describe it as merely electronic.

Although cv313 was a collaborative music project in the past, Hitchell self-identifies as the primary creative force behind the moniker since at least 2013. Hitchell's most frequent collaborator was fellow Detroit producer Rod Modell (aka Deepchord, etc.). The duo also frequently collaborated under the moniker Deepchord Presents Echospace. Hitchell and Modell have remained intentionally vague and playful about the identities of any other potential past cv313 collaborators.

In an interview Modell stated, "Actually, we’ve never released any information regarding the members behind cv313. It was always intended to be undisclosed. All accounts to that end are extraneous, but one night while walking around Barcelona (El Raval), Steve and I met two strung-out “characters,” and they gave us an extraordinary demo CD-R, and those guys might somehow be involved."
