Press Release
Australia has proved to be somewhat of a happy hunting ground for DWA over the last year or so – supplying us with SHIV-R, STUDIO-X and THE CRYSTALLINE EFFECT.
But in the shape of VPROJEKT we have undoubtedly saved the most remarkable for last.
Hailing from the rainforests of the East Coast, VPROJEKT is a dark electronic soundscape worlds away from the beat-driven majority of modern industrial releases, originally brought to our attention by Jay Ruin of CEDIGEST with the prophetic description “So much more than EBM”.
VPROJEKT’s standout sonic signature already caught the ear of no less a scene-figurehead than Johan van Roy of SUICIDE COMMANDO - who not only included the track “Warlord” on his latest “World Wide Electronics 2” sampler, but also agreed to contribute guest vocals to the bonus track “Swarms And Hives”.
Perhaps all the more surprising is that these complex, assured arrangements – which recall the sounds of seminal industrial acts of the 80s and 90s, with a modern production twist – are the work not of some seasoned scene-professional, but rather of young Australian producer Eugene Nesci.
Blending elements from early EBM, ambient and martial-industrial, VPROJEKT – begun purely as an experiment in 2006 – has evolved into perhaps the most significant development in dark electronics to come out of Australia in recent times.
Studiously avoiding any form of sampling, Nesci prefers to create everything from scratch – with the results almost devoid of any clear musical frame of reference.
Mastered for maximum audio definition by Kolja Trelle (SOMAN), the 15 track, 76-minute opus that is “Exhilarate & Disgust” features both “Warlord” and the download-only single “A Kiss Between The Eyes” (DWD145), with artwork by Vlad McNeally (Kallisti:Design – SHIV-R, NACHTMAHR, UBERBYTE).
Already becoming known through his uniquely-flavoured remixes of SIVA SIX, TERROLOKAUST and DIE SEKTOR, and already enjoying the well-merited admiration of his peers, with “Exhilarate & Disgust” Eugene Nesci has undoubtedly laid down a timeless milestone in modern dark electronic music production.
