Message To The Machine - interview (2013)
NINa: Your music is labelled as industrial for the most part. Have
you ever analyzed why industrial musicians as well as fans are
fascinated with heavy industry - machines, factories, repetitions,
cycles, loneliness, the cold and the noise? What emotions can be
expressed through making industrial or experimental noises?
James Orez: It's funny, when I started making music I
had no direction, in terms of genre, for what the overall sound would
be. I was very unfamiliar with Industrial music, apart from Nine Inch Nails,
and I had only heard of Skinny Puppy. My music taste lies more in the
metal genre, you could say. I mean, I am a huge fan of Tool and
Deftones. So, after I made a few songs, which were dreadful, a bunch of
people were calling it Industrial music. So, I did some research and
really delved into the Industrial genre.
