Our 2023 Album "Inclusions" is now available at minorarc.bandcamp.com

Minorarc is a progressive metal, dark classical and electronic experimental music project by Australian producer / underground community founder Ivan Bullock. A sonic exploration of despair and regret, built through piano, guitar, bass and synthesis.

The debut album “Minorarc” was released in 2010, and formed a relentless shift from earlier works (Mystral Tide project 1999-2010), into a new world of decay and urban ruin.

Several performances and four years on, an Involution EP was quietly released as a collection of new material and re-interpretations. Classical and orchestral rivers flowed through a metallic guitar wasteland of discontent and decline.

Minorarc would like to thank its contributors Ben of Cassandra’s Myth / Sleeplab and Brett of Sarcophony for their bass and vocal guest artistry in this project to date.

STRANGE NIGHTS has been a slow cooking project since 2012.
Vocals & lyrics by Jason Buchanan - https://soundcloud.com/culture-vulture
Music & production by Jake Oblivion - https://soundcloud.com/synthicidemusic

Brought together over a love & obsession for music from the New Romantic era, aswell as the music informing it aswell as influenced by it (disco, italo, new wave, house, soundtracks, synthwave), Blitz club vibes are felt throughout their music, attitude & aesthetics.

Jason has been a DJ in Melbourne, last seen running the club 'GLAMNESIA'.
Jake has been in various bands, and has been involved in the synthwave scene releasing music as 'SYNTHICIDE' and occasionally playing live at Laser Highways.

After many hold ups, the debut album from STRANGE NIGHTS is looking to be released in 2020, finally! 
As a result, the songs have had a chance to mature and improve, both in arrangement and production value.
We are certain it will be worth the wait!

Battlesick is a 3-piece Melbourne based Electro Grunge band.
Two Bass players and one Vocalist layered over catchy industrial beats.

Visual art is a massive part of any Battlesick show.
Collections of hoarded vintage film is cut and spliced together for each beat then projected as part of a light performance that makes watching a Battlesick show like being part of a live movie soundtrack.
Battlesick, it's maximum visual sound with minimal members.
