DYSKHORD is Alaskan Industrial Music. Oil and gold. This is the sound of your memory crying for acknowledgement, your pain gasping for another breath, and the relief that all light and life can bring. Started at age 8, DYSKHORD has been playing the synthesizer about as long as an NES. Influenced by Pink Floyd and early Skinny Puppy, this is truly progressive and mechanical in nature.
The question is not so much what Dyskhord is about, the question is what things would be like for me without it. If I don't do it, there's something missing. I feel like there's something I'm trying to convey with my music, some kind of message of hope, but it acts more like therapy as I find my way in this cruel, twisted world. If I didn't make music I don't know how I would ever be able to make sense of things, however intangible they may be. Convoluted thoughts become convoluted music. Each song acts be like portrait of the timeframe it was composed in. Every step, every note is like a day in a season, and we all have our own destination. We all share the human experience, I believe that music best encapsulates some of the more unfortunate things we all have to feel sometimes. Just to know that someone might feel the same way as you do has always been a staple for dark electronic fans, but what about when even you don't know how you feel? Enter Dyskhord Songs of anguish turned to triumph, of paradise shattered and strewn all around you, mocking. Songs made to indulge the senses and provoke an emotional response in the listener. Cries like one dying, it is a trumpet blast on the frontlines in the bastion for something good in such a dark place. I motion to overcome. Dyskhord can best be described as progressive. Theory is overrated, who needs a chorus when the entire song can be a solo? There is no mystery to it, I expose my best for you. As I live and breathe my music is born, and in death both my pain and my victory shall remain to inspire others and give them strength - or just leave them wondering what kind of nut job made such insanity.
Engineered to inspire an emotional response in the listener, DYSKHORD is less about tapping your feet and more about tapping into your heart and potential. Songs of pain turned to hope, of anguish leading to new life - a portrait of the human condition from the eyes of a believer in a world of doubt and hopelessness.
What is DYSKHORD? The absence of harmony? Conflicting waves? By definition, yes - and DYSKHORD, through unconventional methods and a dogged pursuit, intends to show you something new under the sun in these dark days. DYSKHORD is Alan Chitty. Formed around 1996 in Arizona, a lifetime of practice came turn to creating an abstract and truly unique aural experience. One might describe DYSKHORD as modern classical, drawing upon and at times exhausting every technological resource available - skewing them into one as the conductor engages them, creating something undeniably new. No genre could ever clearly define DYSKHORD, however, fans of Industrial music will certainly find a kindred sound - there are elements of Hardcore Dance music, Jungle, Drum and Bass, Glitch, and Ambient to moments almost taken from the psychedelic era of rock and roll. Drawing heavily upon influences in music as a whole - the world has a revolutionary today - make no mistake. After 6 years in Alaska, reaching the top of the Industrial charts 4 months after going online, DYSKHORD turned his attention on the world and has found it wanting. California quickly embraced this new sound, the dark cold wasteland has beckoned his return * the Tortoise wins, remember? * taking heed from Aesop's fable, DYSKHORD has developed an almost ascetic relationship between his music and the world, eschewing many of the trappings of modern society such as television and "meme" internet phenomenon intentionally to surface outside of that sphere of thought - outside of the constraints of seeing through the eyes of this world and the Hare, racing and always so quick to search for the next reprieve - and find peace inside a beautiful chaotic world of his own * Ahead of his time? Or an artificer salvaging what's left of the machine - DYSKHORD will show you a new spectrum of sound. VF Player
