"Henrik Nordvargr Björkk has since 1988 systematically explored the broad field of the post-industrial music scene, covering noise, power electronics, militant, dark ambient, drone, blackened noise, EBM, experimental electronics and avantgarde.

In parallel to his band activities, he has pursued a solo career with a vast amount of record releases. He is widely considered one of the most influential and productive post-industrial artists ever."

She spread sorrow is the solo project run by Alice Kundalini from Italy since 2014 (active with the power electronics project Deviated Sister TV since 2006 to 2014) and out for Cold Spring Records. Ritual deathscape, obscure death industrial, sinful power electronics: her concept albums are trips into distorted faith, repressed desires, guilt, mental diseases. She loves to use images, photos and videos to complete her work with visuals contribute by photographers and video makers.  She played all over Europe and she attended some international festivals (Little Festival in Gdansk, She Makes Noise in Madrid, United Forces of Industrial in London, Destination Morgue in Rome, Varvara Festival in Turin,  Brutal Assault in Czech Rep. etc.)  Midori is the latest album, released in March 2018 on Cold Spring Records. Now she is touring in Europe to promote Midori. On August 2018 will be out the re-edition of the sold out vinyl "Mine" in CD version with 2 bonus tracks.

Dark Ambient Dub/Industrial/Minimal Musick. Mind of God is my vessel of transmission. Influences include Scorn, Coil, & SPK.

My listeners are presented with heavy, beat-driven, dark ambient dub. I've been listening to heavy music in one form or another for as long as I can remember. My older brother turned me on to Kiss, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, etc. when I was about three years old. At the age of twelve, I got my first guitar & started the death metal band Apostasy a few years later. We recorded a well-received cassette & played several live shows with friends' bands like Soilent Green, Flesh Parade, Paralysis, & Mule Skinner. Apostasy eventually broke up, but my love of music has never faded. I still play & write on guitar, but I've always loved the darker side of electronic music, too. The heavy dub of acts such as Scorn & Coil persistently intrigued me, & I found the sounds & visuals of experimental industrial artists (SPK, Swans, Dissecting Table, Nocturnal Emissions, etc.) to be awe-inspiring. So, in late February of 2013, I decided to start something of my own: Mind of God. All of you are invited to come along on this ride with me; you just might enjoy it. I know I do.

Most of my stuff is created with some Quadrophonic mixing/coding. The best decoding experience comes with Sansui VarioMatrix (QS Matrix logic-steered decoder found on receivers/decoders from 1970's). 
For softwar decoding I would use Quark ( quark.cykik.com ).
Modern takes on Sansui Vario-Matrix (like Dolby Pro Logic/DPL II/DTS NEO/Circle Surround etc) will also work quite OK!

But again, if you're really into Quad – go with #quark #quadrophonic decoder (FREE!) or find a vintage 4-channel receiver (Definitely NOT FREE!)
