Xenomorph - Tzelmavet

Xenomorph is the one-man band of Mark Petrick, based in Berlin (Germany). Unlike most younger trance artists who just listen to trance music, Xenomorph was exposed to a multitude of musical influences like new wave, punk/post-punk, gothic, rock-music, death-rock, industrial, EBM, power-noise, death-metal, crossover/hardcore as well as classical music and soundtracks. He started to be musically active in 1985 as a bass-player in a goth-band called "FOG DROWNING". In 1990 he formed his own EBM band "TERMINAL WARFARE" in which he was the lead singer and has composed the songs. 

He then joined the local band "WHIPPET OF TRENCH" as a keyboard player besides his own project one year later. Due to him being a multi-instrumentalist, he was asked to play guitar/bass and keyboards for a couple of shows with the local industrial band "THE UNKNOWN" in 1993, whose singer is now the singer of the EBM-project "AGONOIZE". 
As an enthusiastic fan of death-metal, he also found himself in loose collaborations with local death-metal bands as an audio-engineer/guitarist for their demo-recordings in the studio. After a long time of inspiration the second Xenomorph album "Qlippoth" was released in 2003 on Gnostic Records which is Xenomorph's own record label. Until today Xenomorph has continued to produce cutting-edge dark electronic music and he has done the mastering post-production for more than 30 releases of various labels including Spun Records, Manic Dragon, Peak Records and Acidance Records. In november 2007 the 3rd Xenomorph Album "Demagoguery of the Obscurants" was released. It contains 10 quite different tracks packed into an elaborate concept critically reflecting current,past and future world events already prophesizing the economic crisis of 2009 and the formation of the New World Order. Mark is currently working on remixes for that album, maybe to be released in end of 2009 and also the first tracks for the 4th Xenomorph studio album are coming together.

 Xenomorph is also offering mastering services for labels/artists that are looking to improve the sound of their releases for better audience attention. With the background of being an audio engineer for more than 10 years and having a profound experience in mastering and mixing electronic music, he is able to enhance the sound of any premaster. So far he has mastered over 40 psy-trance releases,
