UK Hardcore/Breakbeat artist/DJ Simon Carter's first encounter with the EBM/industrial scene made him want to launch a new project and break some more music boundaries. He found in Australia's Lawrie Masson (from the trance dance act STUDIO-X) the right partner in crime to come up with something different and cutting-edge.
On their debut "Breaking the Void", the duo serves us an assortment of electro tracks fusing together many elements to create a journey through many different styles and influences, with only two main tenets. Firstly, every track is dancefloor friendly and secondly, each track contains an original vocal… So strap yourselves in and enjoy this enlightening journey through sound from the hard dance epic techno of "Frozen" to the orchestral and almost obsessive "The End (from afar)".
Amateurs of the harder STUDIO-X sound will surely enjoy the dance floor slammer "Angels of the Dark" and its extremely distorted harsh vocals but also and most especially the progressive EBM/ dark elektro anthem "Truth". Add to this the sci-fi / clubby and EDM sounding "Particles Of Love", the synth-driven "Love changes Everything" and the fast paced techno-fused dark-electro "Fallen" and you get a hell of an album, fully formatted for the dancefloors.
A strongly recommended catchy uplifting sonic experience bridging hard elektro dance with dark electro pop!
