Dawn, Chris and James first met on a local chat BBS called Destiny. James was looking to start a band and had met up with Chris where he played guitar along with a song that James had written. Later, Dawn auditioned with a recording and was selected immediately. That was about ten years ago.
Fast forward to the summer of 2002. Chris was playing guitar for Dawn's emerging solo project. Others were originally part of this line up (bass, drums, rhythm guitar) and it was solely guitar driven. Songs such as phantom and control were written and were the keystone of the project. Dawn's soulful lyrics along with Chris's haunting guitars were an excellent pairing. James had moved out of Texas at the beginning of 2000 and in the summer of 2003, he moved back and he was invited to come to one of the practices. James, still very involved with music and working under the name melodywhore , was asked to join the band to bring an electronic element to the mix. James began immediately working on sequences for phantom and some of the other existing songs. New songs were also written in the process. This effectively changed the direction of the band. Live drums were replaced by sampled drums. The bass player was replaced by a sequence. And the need for two guitarists was overkill. The three long-time friends were back.
While the original band project didn't get far, there are some songs that were written back then that have survived. brokensoul, which was released by James on the internet back in 2002 for the melodywhore project, was one of those tracks. other tracks from that era may also end up emerging for this project as well. New songs are currently in production and an album is scheduled for release in 2005.
