A1: Hellscape
Let’s introduce this EP with this slow and dark masterpiece: Hellscape. Deconstructed and rolling drums patterns, this opening track sounds like a tribal ritual sacrifice. Be ready to fight.

A2: Utopia
Broken beat techno at its finest! Doomy atmosphere and eerie impact sounds, surrounded by some cinematics drone and synths. Horror music to escape the inquisition.

A3: Total Damage
Catchy and groovy 4-4 indutrial techno track, with an unforgetable drum break. Expect some distorted kickdrums and punchy snares. This track will slice up your local dancefloor.

B1: Hellscape (Samot Remix)
Monstruous remix by Samot, with a crazy rework of the original Hellscape’s synth. Crunchy drums, gloomy morph bass and cold ambience, vinking lumberjack vibes. 

B2: Total Damage (Swarm Intelligence Remix)
As always, Swarm Intelligence brings the chaos on this one, with a fucking angry noisy rework of Total Damage. It’s judgment day. 

Supported by Ghost In The Machine, VII Circle, Ontal, Dax J, Philipp Strobel, Patrick DSP, David Asko, and more…

About EP:
This album represents a significant evolution in the musical journey of Nick Viola, transitioning from the powernoise and heavy industrial sounds of his previous project, Fractured Transmission, into a techno-framed landscape. Spanning seven tracks, including remixes, the album features recurring sounds sourced from machinery, field recordings, and personal travels. These elements create an uneasy atmosphere oscillating between slight discomfort and absolute dread, offering a dystopian sonic experience fitting for the times we unfortunately live in. 

The opening track, 'A Ghost in Your World,' sets an intense tone with distorted atmospheres and 'It's Still Real' follows with a relentless pulse and swirling mechanical sounds, seamlessly flowing into Kenny Campbell's remix of 'A Ghost In Your World', providing a cathartic release for the A side.

'Drop Out,' guides listeners on a psychedelic journey into the B side of the record, while 'Negative Nancy' ramps up the energy with an aggressive industrial techno assault offering an antagonistic jab at the current trend within the genre. Substencia's remix of “Drop Out” delves deeper into psychedelia, offering an immersive trance-like experience relieving the tension of “Negative Nancy”.

The digital-only bonus track, 'Tensor,' maintains the album's heavy industrial techno feel of a well oiled machine, ready to pummel any underground sound system.


About Artist:
Nick Viola is a versatile electronic music producer known for his distinctive blend of industrial and techno music, drawing inspiration from a wide range of influences spanning from the gritty sounds of powernoise to the pulsating energy of techno.

Born and raised in Los Angeles,  Nick began his musical journey immersed in the industrial club scene, where he cut his teeth performing at the legendary Los Angeles industrial club Das Bunker. Here, he honed his craft and developed a deep appreciation for the raw, aggressive textures of industrial music. As the driving force behind the project Fractured Transmission, he made a name for himself with his uncompromising approach to power and rhythmic noise, earning recognition for his intense live performances and relentless sonic assaults.

However, Nick was always drawn to the rhythms and sounds of techno, and in a bold move, he embarked on a new chapter in his musical career, transitioning from the abrasive sounds and rhythms of powernoise to recontextualizing those sounds into a more techno landscape. With this album, “A Ghost In your World”, he showcases his evolution as an artist, seamlessly blending the industrial aesthetics of his past with the pulsating energy and frame of techno.

Spanning six tracks, “A Ghost In Your World” is a sonic journey through dark, dystopian landscapes and pulsating dance floors, where distorted atmospheres and mechanical rhythms collide to create a mesmerizing and immersive experience. From the haunting textures of "A Ghost in Your World" to the relentless energy of "Negative Nancy," each track offers a unique glimpse into Nick's sonic universe, inviting listeners to explore new depths with each listen.

As Nick Viola continues to evolve musically, he remains committed to crafting immersive sonic experiences that resonate with listeners on a visceral, and primal level.

Eve Schwarz : “This track is a pure emotional outburst (...) - a moment of letting loose when things start to get frustrating (which happens quite a few times in the learning process). There is no rules, no structure, no concept. I sent my noise to my friend Martin (Dolgener)  in Canada and he screamed on top, no words, lyrics, script. Just vibes. And like so often he absolutely nailed it.”

NADPH+H+TRANSMITTER

OMEN Recordings proudly announces the release of Ceremony, the second EP on the label from Japanese techno artist B.A.R.K. Known for his ritualistic, atmospheric, and percussive approach, B.A.R.K. delivers four original tracks that channel relentless momentum and immersive intensity—hallmarks of the OMEN sound and a continuation of his evolving vision within the label’s catalog. Each piece is carefully constructed, weaving hypnotic rhythms with layered textures that evoke both primal energy and cinematic tension.

To further expand the sonic landscape, the project is rounded out by three remixes from international artists, each offering a unique interpretation of B.A.R.K.’s work:

ZNTHIIA makes a striking OMEN debut with a dense, cinematic rework that heightens the release’s brooding aesthetic and pushes its dark energy into new territory.

s t e v a n delivers a fierce, deep-dark reimagining—part hypnotic late-night weapon, part unsettling introduction—designed to blur the line between tension and release.

Ceremony

B.A.R.K - Vital Signs (ZNTHIIA Remix)

IGNIS FERALIS, the second chapter in a four-part cycle, evokes the elements of a cursed and decaying world — a planet collapsing under its own corruption, where the future flickers uncertainly and the abyss draws closer.

Here, fire becomes sound incarnate: a percussion of flames striking against silence, each spark a relentless beat. It swells like a melody unraveling in distortion, crackling as it spreads. Its heat is a low vibration that shudders through bone, its dance a hypnotic sequence of minor tones, merciless and entrancing. At its heart, the blaze is a mechanical rhythm of devastation, primal yet precise, consuming everything in its pulse.
