updated Cyanotic/16 Volt summer tour news

Monday, May 26th, 2008

The hype continues to build and in less than a month, Cyanotic will be hitting the road again, this time in support of our buddies 16 Volt and special guests Bella Morte. Its been a great honor over this past year, getting to share the stage with so many of our biggest influences, from Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly and Meat Beat Manifesto to Chemlab, Acumen Nation and now 16 Volt, the last remaining name on the list of bands that inspired us to start making music. We’re ecstatic to be participating in this tour and we’re happy to see so many fans sharing our enthusiasm. Come out and enjoy what is sure to be a couple of the best shows for this summer.

Here’s the rundown of updated shows Cyanotic will be joining for the tour (Boston now included after a flood of requests! Further proving fans actually do have say-so in this scene) –

Ad·ver·sary CD Release!

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

Ad·ver·sary’s debut album, Bone Music, is available for download or purchase now. From the press release:

Hailing from the Canadian electronic music underground after a decade of Techno and Industrial DJ and promotional work, Jairus Khan, aka Ad·ver·sary, now presents his debut album three years in the making. While providing North American tour support for such acts as Terrorfakt, Antigen Shift, Cyanotic, Adam X, Iszoloscope and others, his many remixes of such Industrial Noise icons as Converter and Iszoloscope have enjoyed heavy club and airplay around the world. Now, Ad·ver·sary is ready to conquer minds and destroy dancefloors with his debut album ‘Bone Music’ out May 13th on Tympanik Audio. Hard Industrial rhythms meet enormous organic soundscapes to create what Re:Gen Magazine calls “…a balance between the brutal and the beautiful.” Featuring remixes by Antigen Shift, Tonikom, and Synapscape. Mastered by Yann Faussurier of Iszoloscope. Get ready to rock.

tours, new music, lotsa stuffs!

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

It’s been a quiet couple of first months in 2008, but with miserable winter behind us and spring in the air it’s time to fill in the fans who keep asking what’s up.

To start, Cyanotic will be playing a special event this Sunday @ Spot 6 in Chicago. The address is 3343 N Clark. Opening acts for the evening will be our good buddy Ad-ver-sary, all the way from Ottawa, as well as The Strand, all the way from Phoenix. Tickets are $7. This will be our first time playing new songs from forthcoming “Medication Generation” album and debuting a new batch of video projections. Come out and enjoy life away from a computer screen.

This summer, Cyanotic will be joining 16 Volt and Bella Morte for select dates throughout the midwest, east coast and Canada. Eris from Born Into Oblivion is going to be joining us as a live drummer, imported all the way from Canada to play, party and join us for bouts of sleep deprivation.

We are honored that 16 Volt asked us to be a part of this tour. This past year had us playing shows and touring with so many of the bands that inspired us to start making music in the first place. Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, Acumen Nation, DJ? Acucrack, Meat Beat Manifesto, Chemlab and now 16 Volt, the last name on our list of major influences that we hoped to play with. Come out and enjoy the experience with us.

Check www.16volt.com/tour for full US tour dates.

To coincide with the tour, we will be selling the new compilation we have been assembling over the past few months. The end result is “Cyanotic Presents - Gears Gone Wild”, featuring exclusive tracks from 16 Volt, Acumen Nation, DJ? Acucrack, Rabbit Junk, end.user, genCAB, InfoCollapse, Prude (feat. members of Chemlab, Cyanotic and Caustic), mindfluxfuneral and many more.

Its a varied mix of heavy electronic rock, electro dancefloor bangers, hard drum n bass and weirdo oddities, and we’re looking forward to releasing it to the masses for an uber cheap price. We will be posting artwork and a full tracklisting soon.

We look forward to seeing our loyal east coast and midwest fanbase again, partying with our stalwart regulars, getting to drink some Yuengling and finally returning to Canada. See you all in the near future.

We appreciate help with promotion, something as simple as telling a friend or posting a topic on a message board. Spread the word. These will be some memorable shows.

Also, support our buddies in Rabbit Junk. New album “This Life Is Where You Get Fucked” out now. Sean of Cyanotic drops some old school gangsta samples throughout the songs “Black” and “Ghetto Blasphemer”. Check www.rabbitjunk.com for more.

Cyanotic just recently got back from our tour with Chemlab. Go check out images from the road Cyanotic site and Cyanotic Myspace to get a better idea of the chaos. 3500 miles in 6 days was a daunting task, but it was done, with a great live lineup consisting of special guests Adrian White (on live drums) of The Silent Alarm, Front Line Assembly, Strapping Young Lad and Dismantled and Dave Schjolden handling our keyborg contraption. It was loud, it was exhausting, it was total fun and total chaos, all at once.
