Meta Sektion

Artist/Band Profile: Meta Sektion is a solo (for now!) synthpop/futurepop/EBM studio project. The Meta Sektion manifesto is to have fun producing futurepop/synthpop/EBM.

Similar Artists: I'd like to be favourably compared with the likes of mindFIELD, Seabound/Edge of Dawn, Minerve, Michigan and mind.in.a.box. Check out the influences list for a more complete view of what I listen to by choice.

Music Style: In a word: Futurepop.

In a short sentence: I make emotive synthpop with melodic EBM leanings.
(Which is what I'd like to use as my definition of futurepop *grin*).

To expand on that, I'm aiming to produce songs that have accessible melodies and harmony, with production values that sit somewhere between electropop and industrial. There's a happy medium somewhere out there, and that's where I'm heading.
