Who, or should it be said, what is X28 Project? The moniker has changed with the minds of the holding proprietors so many times throughout the years that the meaning is quite obscured. As of now, the mystery is magnified by the control of the ensuing days to which the existence is dependent. Once known as a conduit for progression, while still maintaining that philosophy, the humble resonance now seems to be an afterthought of something under the bored need for an exit. It should be noted that as of now the control prevails mainly within one governing entity. By the determination to construct, since 2006 there has been a steady release of instrumentation designed to combat the silence that once was harbored in the preceding minds. Intentions only to reverberate within one location and within one moment. This was unacceptable to the new direction that was necessary for the formulation of continuous angles of relief. Each outlet created has led to more tears of the consistency of that which is disenchanted. Disinterest seems to be molded in the wasted time. While unconcerned for plenty, there is a compulsion for furthering and augmenting the embrace. Inquiry is challenged day to day, yet it's something overwhelmingly vital. The delight in continuance should be cherished in the face of persistent lethargy. To this extent, the ensemble is present to absolve the anguish that is intimate to reasoning...

I make music that will hopefully change someone's life.

Taoubt is the brain child of Gregg Stephens, a San Francisco Bay Area native and co-owner of the virtual instrument developer Soundiron. The music of Taoubt exhibits a diverse influence of styles ranging from heavy, complex progressive rock, to moody atmospheric soundscapes; from middle eastern melodies, to acoustic pop. The project emerged in the late 2010's as a rough collection of riffs, songs and ideas that had formed over the previous two decades while in other bands. The writing process for each song has spanned years, giving them an anachronistic feel, while providing an evolutionary timeline of musical influences. With instrumental support from longtime friends Dan Genzale @genzale79 on drums and percussion, Clipper Ford on bass, and recording support from Eric Hill @theblueroomrecordingstudio, Taoubt has created a unique sound that’s melodically and rhythmically dense, introspective, and emotional.
