Artist History Manic Opression's "the Defect 9 Project" is simply an experiment in sound. * Began in fall '99, we're still around. We've changed a little, but the spirits still the same. More knowledge, more time, more talent, (more programs!!!). Its been a blast! --- So far the album releases have been: Inc. (demo), "Playing with GenetiX" (currently out of print), "the Defect 9 Project" (self-title album), and "Heavy Dance". Next release around June sometime should be the "Pulsewidth" full-length disc. Plans are also in the works for a few Battle Vinyls, but we have to discuss that with our PR guys. (for $55 US funds we'll put together a custom vinyl with your tracklisting shipped anywhere in the USA. the price is high because we hate doing it). --- Right now Manic O. has teamed up with SIMPLETiN (http://www.mp3.com/simpletin) in doing some remixes of popular SIMPLETiN tracks including 'Pagliacci' and 'L.O.V.E.'. TiN's site for original recordings plus remixes! --- The future of Manic? Who knows.

Group Members No members of the band wish to be named officially, but we got DJ-Red and Ua Pierce on the concept team, so there.

Instruments Yamaha PSR-6, RadioShack mic (for that raw gritty vocal signature), Various household appliances, FruityLoops 3 Pro, Hammerhead Rhythm studio, SoundForge 5.0, Mastering with Acid Loop sequencer 3.0, Vegas Video tracking (for unofficial videos released via the internet)
