It's 3am on a Tuesday morning. Nazatron is tired.
The microphone next to his bed records the rain outside.
A day of work has turned into a night of 9 til 5.
The music in his head must fight the sleep to stay alive.
The red guitar is fodder to auxiliary 9.
The kick on the computer screen gets moved from left to right.
When inside's out and outside's in a song has come to life.
Nazatron can sleep now. The music can not die.
Nazatron is the musical vehicle of Genaaron Diamente. Genaaron grew up in a small town in Victoria, Australia and started playing guitar as soon as he was big enough to hold one. A steady diet of beatles records, 90s metal, school jazz bands and guitar lessons
quickly evolved into an irreversible love of music.
After high school, Genaaron moved to Melbourne and after a brief stint studying computer programming
he decided to study music full time. He spent the next few years honing his craft and practicing jazz scales. But Nazatron was not satisfied.
The crazy metal and electro beats that he still listened to when no one was around started to consume him.
After graduating with a nice piece of paper that said music degree, Nazatron gave in to the inner music rebel and decided to give life to the music that had been growing inside of him for years. At last, his world started to synergize. He could now marry his
love for music and jazz scales with the computer skills that he secretly still harbored. He locked himself in his room (that is, in between teaching guitar
and playing/singing Clapton songs at dirty pubs) and after a few years, his debut album was complete.
Nazatron had passed the fork in the road, never to return.
Fork in the road is the debut album of Nazatron. The album features songs written, arranged, performed and produced by Nazatron and took approximately three years to complete.
Being self produced, most of the tracks were recorded in Nazatron's home studio and many an hour was spent sculpting each second of music.The music can best be described as an eclectic mix of Electro and Alternative Rock drawing from many infuences. The textures move from intense guitar polyphony to synthetic soundscapes. From minimalist percussion to squarepusher inspired Electro beats.
But Nazatron has always been a sucker for pop music and beneath the oscillators, LFOs and shred solos that decorate each track, Fork In The Road is bound together by simple, strong melodies.
