Introducing... Mebitek

Name of band: Mebitek

Members: Mebitek

Year formed: 2003

Location: Mogoro, Sardinia

From the acid and dusty factories of the electronic underground, through the devastated and pure immaculate nature of Sardinia, an explosion of anger and melancholy darkness transforms electronics into a cinematic orchestra.

What technology can transform into audio & visual experiences we can just follow the future, transforming sorrow into confidence, pain into art to see the own horror diminuendo becomes melancholic crescendo.

Dark Ambient Cinematic Electronic Music from Sardinia

Let's the eternal journey starts...

Intravenous Magazine: Who are you and how did the band/project come to be formed?

My name is Claudio and I form Mebitek in the late 2003 when I was outside my Island and I was living in Bologne (Italy).

IVM: How would you describe your sound/style, and how did you arrive at it?

My initial sound was influenced of the Bologne underground scene and was mainly hard techno with tribal influences. after some years of experimentation I develop an electro dark ambient cinematic music style.

IVM: Who and what are your primary influences both musical and non-musical?

My influences are various. they come from a lot of music style and artists:

Tim Exile, Jeremy Ellis, Ulver, The Haxan Cloak, Atrium Carceri.

IVM: Do you perform live and if so where can we see you perform in the near future?

I performed live since 2003 but now I'm a little bit stuck cause I'm improving my style and soon I will start again to have live set. I performed in Sardinia, Italy, France.

IVM: What is your current release and where is it available from?

My current release is 'An Eternal Wail's Journey EP' my first dark ambient EP and it's available on bandcamp: https://mebitek.bandcamp.com/

IVM: What have been the highlights of your career so far?

I open [for] a lot of big artists gigs and [have] release eight vinyls in France, two EP's

IVM: What are your plans fro the future?

My plans is to develop my electro dark ambient cinematic style merging it with some visual arts. A full album for February is ready and has been planned.

IVM: Finally, is there anything that you would like to add?

In those days I'm preparing an art installation called 'The Sensegration Box' that will be performed the 12th November 2016. I develop music, videos, website and with the help of my collective I prepared to media campaign. I can find all the info in the official website: http://thesensegrationbox.mebitek.com/
