FUTURISK was a pioneering electro-punk group that recorded and performed in the pre-midi era of the early '80's. They had two vinyl releases that sold out, a legendary live show and some videos, but for a number of reasons by 1984 Futurisk was history. Eventually the main core of Futurisk would be the Kolosine/Hess/Howard line up, but in '79 when a teenage Jeremy Kolosine won studio time &amp; money in a competition with his drum-machine triggered guitar-synth act called 'Clark Humphrey &amp; Futurisk', he decided to form a band around the name to record a more punk release "The Sound of Futurism 1980/Army Now". It was an ambivalent anti-war anthem, with Jack Howard on drums, Frank Lardino on synth and Kolosine on vocals and guitar synth. In '81,Kolosine, who had gotten absorbed in a new synth/sequencer replaced Lardino withsynthesist/recordist Richard Hess who had a myriad collection of Moogs, Oberheims and KATs,etc. and the line up for the "Player Piano EP" was cast. The EP, like the live show, was a strange blend of punk/minimalist/disco influenced electro pop, with drum-machine triggered synths and often frantic real drums all led by Kolosine's schizophrenic Bowie/Ferry/Foxx adulations (and about 20 seconds of punk-funk guitar). It was recorded by Rich and the band in the rooms of Ron K's house.The drum sound, gotten in a bathroom, rocks, even today. Reportedly, Futurisk may have been the 1st synth-punk band in the American South...or something, and 1981's track 'Push Me Pull You (pt. 2)' was an early pre-'Rockit' excursion into electro-funk.
In 2003 LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy gave a complimentary wink to Futurisk by using the track on the delightful Colette # 5 DFA Comp CD. 
In 2007 an unreleased 1982 version of the track "Meteoright" was included on Minimal Wave's "Found Tapes" vinyl LP.
In 2010 Minimal Wave Records released  the long awaited 30th anniversary Futurisk retrospective "Player Piano LP", 
and in 2011, Futurisk's " Lonely Streets Remixes" , with remixed tracks by Chris Carter (Throbbing Gristle,Chris & Cosey), Tom Furse (The Horrors), Prince Language (DFA, Editions Disco) and Complexxion was released on Minimal Wave / Cititrax Records.

(BLACK QUASAR Rec.)

I can tell you that I enjoy every kind of music when it comes out from sincere feelings.  Eclectism is king here!
Music is a language we all share and I enjoy its never ending richness. 

Total DIY here : I'm no real musician since I can't play any instrument except twiddling a DAW and music theory is like an unknown territory to me (I did try tough!).

You'll find lots of various music genres here. I like trying different roads. Experimenting brings me great fun! 

I'm open to collaboration, electronic, trip hop, rock, ambient... Whether you are a singer, rapper, guitarist,drummer you're welcome. Let's see what we can achieve. 



FR: une sorte de bricoleur de sons sans prétentions, pas vraiment musicien mais je m'éclate à assembler du midi et de l'audio tels les Lego adorés de mon enfance;et le tout en essayant d'apprivoiser la théorie musicale  ... mais je crains que c'est elle qui ne veut pas de moi ! 

Influences multiples pour des résultats éclectiques et imprévisibles
