Cleopatra Records proudly presents BLACKBURNER, a bold new force in electronic music masterminded by multi-talented producer/musician Skyla Talon. A Michigan-born Los Angeles transplant, Talon cut his teeth in the music capital of the world with the modern metal band Killingbird, which he founded, and in 2005 joined Scum Of The Earth, featuring former ROB ZOMBIE axeman Riggs. Inspired by the revolutionary new sounds in Dubstep and Glitch music generated by the likes of fellow metal-head-turned-DJ SKRILLEX, Talon began the BLACKBURNER project, remixing tracks and releasing original compositions through the Cleopatra imprint Hypnotic Records. The project immediately met with enormous success as compilations featuring BLACKBURNER alongside Dubstep luminaries RUSKO, NERO, DUDDA JONNY climbed the iTunes Electronic charts, while BLACKBURNER tracks racked up over over 50,000 individual downloads. Bolstered by this overwhelming on-line buzz, preparations were made for a full-length album - and now the time has come for BLACKBURNER to make its worldwide launch. Influenced by Talon’s background as a metal guitarist/vocalist, BLACKBURNER combines the heavily twisted and seriously aggressive Bass beats of Dubstep and Glitch with the melodic hooks of Rock, Industrial and Electronica to create a daring yet widely appealing new hybrid sound. The debut album, slated for May, will feature guest appearces by Edgar Froese of electronic pioneers TANGERINE DREAMas well as John Wesley of PORCUPINE TREE! This 2012, FEEL THE BURN!
