First Media Assault Group (Mechanized) is a performance and releasing umbrella for industrial, harsh noise, power electronics, death industrial, damnbient, powernoise, agitprop, and experimental sound, video and performance projects both unnamed (operating as sound combat elements of First Media Assault Group (Mechanized) directly), and named (independent audio assault squads and sound-strike units assigned under FMAG command).  

FMAG(M) was originally organized as a performance-only unit, and completed its first media assault action in Boston in 1991.  The unit was active in San Francisco in the mid-90s, and New York in the early 2000s.  After a period on the inactive units list, it was reactivated by Sound Central Command in 2011 and operates out of Radon Basement III, a command bunker strategically located in the hills surrounding the San Francisco / Oakland Metroplex.

We do: Industrial, Noise, Power Electronics, Powernoise, Doom/Sludge, Damnbient, Martial, Experimental, and related genres. 

Affiliated Audio Assault Squads:

* Abteilung für Heimatsicherheit

* MQ-9

* Veles

* Force Multiplier

* Headless

* Pisst Pisstofferson

* 13hex

* Supreme Soviet

* Brygada Dywersji Broda 53 (BDB53)

* handjobb.  (released on Aural Sects recordings)

FMAG is run by Socialists and is resolutely anti-fascist. Fascist noise artists need not apply.

Exploring the vast universe of electronic music. Having not settled on a planet yet.

Supermachina is the work of Reinhard Koenig, a creator of electronic music. Reinhard follows procedural approaches in generating rhythms and melodies, rather than composing them in a traditional way. The result is some quite intense tracks that are glitchy in nature, abstract, and actually quite fun.
