About Me |
|
Elektradog is a solo project created by Mark from Hertfordshire, England. All songs are written and performed by Mark and recorded in his home studio in Knebworth, Hertfordshire. Elektradog was born in 2004. A few quotes from some reviews Elektradog has received: "It's a rare occurrence to find a purely unique band, group or solo musician but Elektradog seems to stand all alone at the top of the heap of original electronic artists." - Space Junkies "Depeche Mode and Human League are the kings on this modern update of the electro genre." - Sohostrut "With cold minimalist icy-pop..and the electro glam stomp of Goldfrapp" - Subba-Cultcha "Gradually the songs reveal a lot more about Elektradog, some of the harmonies on Drive are almost unhinged and fit in the TV On The Radio scheme of alt.soul and rock" - Vanityproject "..Need a pet? Get an Elektradog" - Cool Noise "..electronic pop ala Eurythmics, Depeche Mode, and David Bowie (all admitted influences) is present...the music is stellar and rarely misses" - smother.net Elektradog has a very strong electro sound..currently un-signed but once discovered Elektradog should go down well.. - Guttergliitter
Where can I buy your music, and what stores stock your CD's? As I don't have a band I won't be doing any live gigs. Because of this I'm going to concentrate on writing more songs. I'm confident that one day I will do some live dates!
Who's in the band and who does what? I use FruityLoops with lots of plugins for arranging, mixing and recording, a Yamaha 01X mixing desk/audio interface, Korg Triton synth, Baby Bottle Blue mic with a Focusrite voicemaster pro mic amp.
