HANIKA
- Hardcore Industrial Music
I Started Making Music in June 2000.
About 14 Years after trying the High School Rock Band Thing. That Artistic
itch was still there. So I sat down with some software wondering if it
was possible to make music using the computer.
When
it came time to sing, I couldn't get the micrphone
to record, got pissed off, and threw it on the floor cussing. With that
I saw the pretty green lights come alive. So I grabbed the Microphone
and ran with it. I cussed everyword I could think of at the time, Invented
a few ways of coming up with new cuss words, Then sat down to play with
the nifty effects the PC is capable of. Voice altering stuff, whatever
I thought sounded cool.

Everyone
except my wife loved it, Called the song "HanoiRuptor", I got
enough positive feedback to continue. Always looking to make a better
song. Now, 2003, 138 Tracks later I continue to try to get better,
Other's
who help now and/or did at one time include: Bill Slavens, Missy Shackleford,
Jim Pryor, Erika Lee and Phillip Hernandez.
The
Tracks "Inside My Shell" And "You Came Along" Were
sent to MakeAStar.Com. Both made it to their "Sweet 16" Picks.
"Inside My Shell" was selected by Kid Antrim Music for a song
writing contest. And Made it onto the winners CD. The Track "20/20"
Made it
onto Crank Spiv records "L.A. Underground and Unearthed: Volume 1"
CD.

listed Hanika as folows:
"This is one of the best vocal performances, no actually the best
vocal performance I have come across in the reviews I have done so far...
It's also better than many of the technically great singers I have recorded
recently because every word and note is intense and real... I don't like
drawing comparisons but this track (Inside My Shell) makes Marilyn Manson
sound like a phony... "

Mastering Notes from Conrad:
I
loved working on this project. The music is gut-wrenching and reminded
me when I used to wear out my Skinny Puppy recordings. I normally don't
care for home recordings but this was so raw it was refreshing.
The
most challenging part in mastering was to clean up the distortion frequencies
without losing the edge of the distortion. Because this is industrial
music, the distortion isn't limited to the guitars like you normally get
for mastering. We had a couple redo's because we lost some of the punch
but ended up with a powerful end product.
Hanika's
music is not for everyone, but if you're into hardcore industrial you'll
probably love it. Hanika says things I think in my head but would never
have the guts to say in public and I commend them for that.
