Album Notes

Arising from the newly resurgent Chicago Electro/EBM scene comes the arrival of the highly touted and youthful duo known as PTI. Consisting of Eric Dusik and Phil Fox, the two have been creating a signature sound and redefining a style of club music that has dominated the international scene since the early 90s. Building on the success of the club hits Icons and Alysium, from their self released debut SOS, the duo are now prepared to make an even bigger statement with the release of Blackout. Sonically, PTI's diversity can be found in their delivery, blending melodic and aggressive vocals styles with heavy synth lines, driving beats and layers of intricate programming. Blackout features the tracks Gone Silicon, IDentify and Databass which are destined to be club hits, while Ivory Tower and Vacant showcase the more harmonious side of PTI. PTI's overall energy level and style can only be compared to the bands that once dominated the genre like Front242, Nitzer Ebb and other EBM artists.
