Mechanised Convulsions - 04 - Long train Raid Home (RetroNoise EP)

http://www.mechanisedconvulsions.com/


The Mechanised Convulsions project (MechCon for short) formed in late 2001 as a hobby, due to Daves interest and an acute passion in industrial music. The name derives from the way that some of us feel, with the routines we have in lives, some necessary, some unnecessary but we have to pursue nevertheless, and there are times where we just break out of those routines, like a machine overheating, just goes into convulsions.

As time has progressed, and other influences have appeared in the scene worldwide, as well as noticing the industrial music scene in Adelaide diminishing, Dave has taken his sound to a different level to what it was at the beginning, with more advances on the tools used for the sounds, he has gotten to a level of music consisting of angry, distorted, industrial/powernoise rhythms, blended in with melodies and ear-bleeding noises, to deliver a mixture of emotions expressed through sound.

MechCon has performed at the Distorted 2005 Electronic Music Festival in Melbourne, Australia, and for a first performance, was given a warm response at the end of his set, which gave him the determination to continue his hobby. Daves major influences are extremely broad, ranging from the more harsher-EBM acts like Suicide Commando, Terrorfakt, and Dulce Liquido, to the harshest of powernoise acts, like Converter, W.A.S.T.E., Iszoloscope, Mono No Aware, Winterkalte, Hypnoskull, the list goes on!

Since joining Uncomfortable Records, Dave has been able to release his EP's Adelayed, and Retronoise. On top of that, his debut album "Questionable Normality" was released on the 20th September 2007. The Mechanised Convulsions project will stay as long as it is a hobby for him, and as movement for other artists locally to get influenced, and produce industrial music once again. In May 2008, Dave has left Uncomfortable Records with complete independence to his music.

Come 2008 he will release a new album promising to be more brutal than Questionable Normality. Title to be announced mid 2008.
