Remyl
Encyclopedia
Remyl is an electronic music
project founded by three friends in Oslo
, Norway
in 1992.
Remyl has performed live once at Cosmopolite in Oslo May 20, 1993.
They made a live computer performance at the Cyberiad club in connection with the release of the reincarnation of the sun compilation in 1994. Where an Acorn Arhimedes computer rendered self-developed visual accompaniment in real time along with pre-recorded music.
The members prefer anonymity, letting the music and imagery speak for itself. On public appearances they have been dressed in white protective suits and gas masks.
Although nothing has been released for many years, Remyl considers itself to be in stasis rather than broken up.
In 2010 a bootlegged digital release of the album Disruptor forced Remyl to revitalise its label Bootsector and release its back catalogue for digital distribution. A digital EP with all existing versions, 2.00 through 6.00, of the classic "Golden Triangle" was released in January under the title "The Golden Triangle Recollected".
The first new material since 1996 was released as the digital EP "Slavery of Survial" February 1, 2010. Presented in the Norwegian numeric date format (dd.mm.yyyy) the release date spells 01.02 .2010.

Description
Remyl makes experimental electronic music. Labeled by some as industrial and as dark ambient by other. It is often inspired by science fiction themes and man/machine relations. The tracks vary between instrumentals and songs with heavily processed or synthesized voices. Sometimes the lyrics themselves are synthesized using specially written software. The instrumentation is purely made up by synthesizers, samplers, various processing equipment and sometimes software.Remyl has performed live once at Cosmopolite in Oslo May 20, 1993.
