Is this the kind of thing you are aiming for by the compilations you have been involved in? As certainly it could be said that all of them have a wide variety of styles/genres/whatever you want to call them… That’s the kind of scene unity I want to strive for again.Ī: Interesting – similar things have been happening here. I think people are starting to come around again though, this scene was at its best when there weren’t those sub-genres to break up everybody – when ohGr could tour with Ministry and Godflesh could open for Puppy. The scene isn’t really unified here at all, it hasn’t been since the segregation began in the late 90s, when everybody had to start classifying just what kind of industrial music was their preference, y’know? Me, I like it all: electro, power noise, coldwave, whatever name you want to slap on music with heavy electronics. Sean: I can’t really say because I’ve only been fortunate to do tours with bands we already have a connection with. Would you say that this is the case, or is this only a small, er, corner of it? So its made it much more of a family-style experience, and the people in the crowd feel that too, sharing the unity and support for both bands onstage and offstage, partying with us ’til dawn and the like.Ī: You’re making it sound like the “scene” over there is perhaps a little more welcoming than some others. I was so very happy that just because we were the opener, it didn’t mean that everybody made the choice to avoid us, because thats usually how it goes, but 16Volt, Acumen Nation, Chemlab, we are all kindred. We had everybody watching us who was there for 16Volt and made a lot of new fans in the process. Sean: I was so happy that we were met with such a warm response. ![]() So getting to befriend these three bands through out this past year that were so influential to me in starting to make music was a huge personal accomplishment.Ī: What was the response from the audiences like for Cyanotic? As I can only presume that many 16v fans are likely to be at least aware of you? The bond we had with the 16Volt guys was incredible – I hadn’t felt that with anybody else but the Acumen Nation/ DJ? Acucrack crew and Jared on the Chemlab tour. Sean: Oh man, this was by far one of the best times I’ve ever had on the road. managed to interrupt his busy life for a short while to catch up on developments and find out a little bit more about Cyanotic – past, present and future…Ī: So Sean, how was the tour? ![]() Fresh off a North American tour supporting 16Volt and Bella Morte, having just seen the latest Cyanotic-driven compilation just released, and with a new Cyanotic album due early next year, Sean Payne is a busy man.
