Final Dream

Biog

In 1995 Phil Klein was approached by experimental techno label Audio Illusion and asked if he would like to contribute some weird, fucked up tracks for their new underground label. Phil laughed politely, pointing out that he was an electro man at heart, techno was far too fast and furious for his liking but, he would give it a whirl anyhow.

One week later the lads at Audio Illusion received a call from a very excited Mr Klein blasting them with his mutations of demonic beats, disturbing acid lines and sinful strings. Not too sure just what they had let themselves in for as Phil rambled happily about soul poison, night visions and eternal darkness, one thing was for certain - the Final Dream had awoken

Final Dream is an audio epic adventure into the dark unknown, exploring war torn futures that many a mortal man may flee. Fear, pain and the power of evil surge through battle bruised speakers in an unholy attempt to imprison your imagination as subliminal rhythms, forbidden frequencies and bone chilling beats plague that place you thought was your mind. Innocent as he may seem Phil Klein has been responsible for many a childhood nightmare with his eerie alter ego. Such titles as 'Pain Amplifier', 'The Future Is Dark' and 'Nightmares In A Damaged Brain' give us a good idea of what goes on in the mind of Phil Klein, a place by the way, you dare not enter.

night visions ep - review by dj callie & dj marie chantal

Hallucinogenic material from Phil Klein, engineered by Cause of Spite. Theology 303, introduced by a dramatic drug speech sample, is a deep, dark 140bpm`er, with planet thud kick, acid and eerie strings: perfect for heavy dark trips. A2, with powerful strings and deep acid, would serve as an excellent underworld film soundtrack.

night visions ep - review by technohead - dj magazine

Deep and abrasive acid featured here, tricky cuts in the programming make sure that the interest is never lost and the energy on tracks such as 'Pain Amplifier' is kept to the maximum

demonc charge ep - review by nexus 6 - atome

"Dark acidic techno-electro, horror films heavily influence this style". Here was in March Bass Junkie's description of audio concept developed under his Final Dream alter ego (let's read Cybernet Systems interview on news page). A quite exact definition although Battle Trax mastermind voluntarily forgot to mention rudeness of sounds experimented on one of his most secret electronic projects! For this third production taken from "The Future Is Dark" 2001 album, moves away from Phil Klein's latest works to bring closer into hard, instinctive and vicious style. On A side, "The Power Of Evil" introduces a corrosive music enhanced by old school unhealthy strings that find in hypnotic version of "The Future Is Dark" a frightening echo. At last, scary killer "Soul Poison" will immerge you into a never-ending nightmare. Demonic!
