About Alien Produkt
Alien Produkt artist is a Electro / EBM band formed in Buenos Aires, Argentina in the end of 1997, when Ricardo Alien met Osvaldo S, who shared the same personal and musical interests. Musically, the band is complemented with very powerful rhythmic bases, which combine elements from Electro-Industrial and EBM. Today's band lineup consists of Ricardo Alien, U-TB, LoreGore and Dunkel Alien Produkt made their debut on stage in the city of Lima, Peru, on January 23rd 1998, with the featured presentation of Leo 'Isis', who was part of the band until mid 98's. The name 'Alien Produkt' came out from an antennas assembly for broadcasting workshop in which Ricardo worked, known as the 'Alien Base'. It was there where the first experiments took place with a sampler and an old vocoder. The first independent album was called "Tiempo de Renacer" (time to rebirth), and it had a great acceptance in the Argentinian and Latin-American underground scene. It's worth mentioning that with the first cre (Ricardo, Osvaldo and Leo) there's been an album called "Tiempo final" (final time). By the end of 2000, the sound of the group is turned to the side of E.B.M., with more accelerated songs and lyrics related exclusively to social issues. On December of that same year, the separation of Osvaldo 'S' from the group occured, leaving the group conformed by Ricardo 'Alien', in charge of the music, programming and lyrics; and Pablo 'Dunkel' in charge of post-production and mixing. Osvaldo would later create the band called Punto Omega together with 'Neo', with whom he'd harvest important achievements. In 2004 Alien Produkt and his power-ebm (or violent-electro like some fans calls his music) start to have international presence around the world. The remixes made for the argentinean electro-gothic project LAMIA (Dark Angel) and for a Mentallo & the Fixer tribute album (which finally was not realesed), reached a greater aprovation from the audience. At the end of this year, another change produces in the AP formers: the arrival of LOREGORE, the female voice of Alien Produkt. December 2004 produces the most important fact to the band: BLC Productions shows interested in the band, and Alien Produkt signs the contract to release their debut full length: Revenge! And so we come to the present time, in which Alien Produkt keeps on contributing to make up an authentic electro scene in Argentina, while it prepares the next productions and shows.
