Project:
Mutant Star Project was founded at the end of 1999 by two members of the then underground group Demimonde. After the release of their debut album Demimonde – Mutant Star by the label Epidemie Records in 2000 the members of the group have drifted apart into different multimedia projects. One of these projects is the Mutant Star.
Main stimulus for the formation of the Mutant Star Project was a millennium turning point atmosphere, with our experiments on music field getting a new dimension in the shadow of cyber evolution. Our fractal perception of environment we weren´t able to name started to make sense and was given a form and medium – surfing on the free parties wave we landed first in GOA and later on in PSYTRANCE. Another important impulse was a continual tide of records from friends and relatives hanging around in Goa (The Sound of Goa Party, Psychadelic Trip to Goa, Trancentral compilation, Shamanic trance etc.)
Currently, the Mutant Star comprises two people with generous music past: Ankhabut and Afagddu. Ankhabut is a multi-instrumentalist with great overlap into extraeuropean music who often works with different artists. Afagddu started to experiment on electronics as far back as 1995 with an industrial project, releasing during his industrial career three demos: "The Womb (96)", "Bodytorium (97)" and “Machine Morque (98)“ – some of them in cooperation with then incipient label Ars Morta Universum.
We create music in our own studio, using following equipment: Novation K-station, Yamaha and Korg (microkorg) synths, Yamaha sampler, Yamaha Mixer (8 stereo / 16 mono). We loan Acces Virus and Akai MP2000 and have music instruments for our disposal (bass and solo guitars). We use powerfull Marshall and Hocke amplifiers, Systym, Rega and EV repro. For music production and practising we use M-audio equipment, PCs and NBs with Cubase SX2 (and many VSTs, presets and plugins), Reason (and many sound banks, refills etc.), Logic Audio (thanks for Cosmo´s professional tunning :) and tuns of other software (Ableton, WaveLab, SoundForge ...) and whatever else we can lay our hands on :)
Don´t hesitate to contact us so we can arrive and play at another great party. In Czech we perform chiefly in cooperation with Hedonix crew, Sonic Distortion, United Sound Experience, Mystical Waves, Planet Blue Society and Trancedelic Family. However, there are a lot of other people to help us whom we would like to mention: Les, Siggy, Geckon, Dron, FerryT + Generator and PsyCZ, Stalker.cz, Roland - TaTrance, PanDan, Perplex, Akhibara and Tribe, Schwa and ORM…). Many thanks for support and we hope to see you again soon.
