After realising that life had become 'Groundhog Day', they unpacked their suitcases to concentrate on writing and recording ... and have secured publishing deals in both Australia and the US. Some of their music has been licenced to the fashion industry - and they've also written/ produced tracks for Comedians and other Indie artists .... 'Gravity Is Our Friend...' - a collection of 10 tracks ranging from Electro Dance Rock, to Blues, to Nu-Jazz, to Trip-Hop...

machinoir

machinoir is a solo noisegrind project from the Blue Mountains, Sydney, Australia. The works of Dillon Ashcroft and collaborators combine elements of modern black metal with harsher grind and noise elements to create chaotic and dense songs.
Forgoing bass guitar and live drumming, songs utilize programmed drums without falling into the sterile one-tempo four-four sound of other bands.
The band has been likened to Genghis Tron, The Locust, Pig Destroyer and Discordance Axis, however there is a more lo-fi approach reminiscent of Mechagodzilla and Xrin Arms.

The groups' mutual love of lush vocal harmonies and alt-country style was the basis for forming the Basement Birds project. "Luckily we all seem to have fairly similar tastes in music, I think it'd be harder if we had someone who was into death metal and another into jazz fusion.
