BIO
-------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------
Nightmares is a new synth trio formed by Jonathan Canady,
David Reed, and Mark Solotroff.


Canady is known for his dark analog synth fueled solo project, Angel of
Decay, while power-electronics fans know him for his truly brutal band,
Deathpile. Although possibly less-known in the noise world, it is likely
that his most widely heard project is the industrial-metal band Dead
World. He also founded the Malsonus label.

Reed has a musical personality that is finely split into two
distinct-yet-related solo projects: the analog synth-driven Envenomist
and its dark electronic alter-ego, Luasa Raelon. Reed has also recorded
under the name Brittle Foundries, and occasionally using his own name.
He also runs the prolific Snip-Snip label and the newly launched Fatal
Beliefs label.

Solotroff has recorded lo-fi analog synth music under the name Super
Eight Loop, which dates back to 1993. He released 100 hour-long missives
and performed a single live show as S8L, before retiring the name in
January 2009. Solotroff is also known for his bands BLOODYMINDED, The
Fortieth Day, A Vague Disquiet, Intrinsic Action, Animal Law, and the
newly formed Anatomy of Habit. As a synth player, Solotroff has also
played live and/or in the studio with diverse artists including Brutal
Truth, Consumer Electronics, and Wilt. He also runs the BloodLust! label.

The three members have long, entwined histories together, dating back to
the early 1990s, when Canady and Solotroff first met up. When Canady’s
band Dead World was on Release/Relapse Records, Solotroff brought the
group to New York City to play an infamous 1993 show with Intrinsic
Action and Whitehouse. Solotroff also organized several shows with
Deathpile and Angel of Decay, and his BloodLust! label went on to
release numerous compact discs, 7-inch singles, and cassettes by Dead
World, Deathpile, and Angel of Decay. Canady returned the favor by
including what became a universally despised BLOODYMINDED song,
“Moonwalker,” on the groundbreaking Malsonus power-electronics
compilation CD, “The Sound of Sadism.” Canady has also overseen the
graphic design of six Intrinsic Action compact discs and his design
skills frequently keep the BloodLust! gears rolling smoothly.

Reed and Solotroff first crossed literal paths in September 2004, at a
rare show at Chicago’s Viaduct Theater, when BLOODYMINDED played with
the touring projects Hive Mind, Luasa Raelon, and Redrot. The two met up
again at the March 2005 edition of No Fun Fest in Brooklyn, NY, when
Luasa Raelon and BLOODYMINDED both played on the Chondritic Sound stage.
It was not long before Envenomist releases on vinyl, compact disc, and
cassette, began appearing on BloodLust! Solotroff has organized several
more Luasa Raelon and Envenomist shows in Chicago, and Reed even began
sitting in on synth at key BLOODYMINDED shows. Reed and Solotroff
previously toured the Midwest together in October 2007.

Most recently, the three members of Nightmares all found themselves on
the landmark “Wierd Compilation Volume II : Analogue Electronic Music
2008” – a four LP set that was released by BLOODYMINDED member Pieter
Schoolwerth, on his New York-based Weird Records imprint. Canady
appeared as Angel of Decay, Reed as Envenomist, and Solotroff – with
BLOODYMINDED and The Fortieth Day member, Isidro Reyes – as A Vague
Disquiet.

With their long history of dark analog synth music, the three members of
Nightmares have united to develop their own type of aural sleep
disruption, characterized by frightening psychological content and
aiming to provoke a strong feeling of imminent physical danger and a
sensation of being trapped or suffocated.
