About Me
Ocean Born Muse is a solo artist originally from Providence, Rhode Island, US. A mixture of electronica, darkwave, ambience, classical, and contemporary and operatic vocals, Ocean Born Muse claims such influences as Switchblade Symphony, VNV Nation, In Tenebris, Epica, Mozart, and Delerium.
Ocean Born Muse fits easily into a number of musical genres, and yet defies classification. Drawing heavily on classic electronica influences such as Savage Garden, Ace of Base, and Daft Punk, as well as classical music including baroque, romantic and 20th century contemporary, it blends these primary influences with heavy input from the darkwave, EBM, and ambient genres to create a varying and yet harmonious body of music. Ocean Born Muse has been well-received in the dark alternative community of the northeast US, appreciated by both composers and listeners.
A classically trained mezzosoprano, Muse en Lystrala recently released her third EP, Sessions, in May of 2010. Previous works included Divine Technology, Vindication, the Temple of Madness EP, The Cold Blue Twilight, and The Absence of Machina EP (an all a capella release released in December 2009). A fourth full-length release is in production for 2011 called The Labyrinthine Conspiracy, which will feature several collaborative tracks. Muse is working on a number of collaborations with other artists, including Synthetic Division, Experiment Haywire, RaHb of Doomsday Virus, and New Army.
