Their first album, Psykosonik, was a hard-hitting techno album with cyberpunk-esque lyrics. Songs from this album were featured in the Super Nintendo game, “X-Kaliber 2097”.



Their follow-up album, Unlearn, had a completely different sound. Gone were the DJ/techno stylings and sampled guitar tracks; instead, Unlearn was consisted of lush electronic soundscapes interspersed with instrumental tracks and ambinet music.



The band's third album, Spiritual Machine, was completed by 1997 but was never released by the band's label, Wax Trax! Records, who were by this time owned by TVT Records. The experience led to the subsequent disbanding of Psykosonik.



Today Psykosonik founder/singer and Platinum Record-winning producer Paul Sebastien returns to the music world after 8 years, teaming with Wideband Network founder Caesar Filori to create Basic Pleasure Model.with a mission to add some heady lushness, intelligence and unapologetic hedonism to the music landscape.



Daniel Lenz began his career as a DJ. After successfully spinning his own compositions, he joined Psykosonik and released two albums - Producing three tracks that hit the top 20 on billboard's dance chart. He also received a Platinum Album for the track "Unlearn" on the Mortal Kombat Soundtrack. He then started Hednoize, releasing the album "Searching For The End" to much crittical acclaim. With a new vocalist, Brent Daniels (aka Free). The album saw a bit of a departure for Lenz in regards to the sound and feel of Unlearn. Opting for a more industrial sound, the album was a hard hitting debut. Unfortunately, label support was minimal, involving mainly a website and a handful of LA club shows. He is now composing his own music for the use in film, TV, Games and commercials. Daniel is still producing, and most recently co-produced and wrote, "Stand" by Alice Cooper - featuring Xzibit for the 2004 Olympics.
