MUDVAYNE Drummer Releases MIKRONNAUGHT Full-Length

March 13, 2009

MUDVAYNE drummer Matt McDonough (a.k.a. MjDawn) has joined forces with John Strate-Hootman (a.k.a. Vir Unis) to form the electronic/ambient duo MIKRONNAUGHT and release their latest full-length project titled "Neutrino_2.1". The collection is available as a download and CD-R though AtmoWorks, the label McDonough started with John Strate-Hootman and John Koch-Northrup. It is their plan to incorporate artists from many genres, mixing music and art from around the globe, using the techniques of online business that have been refined in the past several years.

Commented McDonough: "MIKRONAUGHT flirts with a broad range of our musical tastes. From current EBM to industrial hits of the '80s to obvious metal-inspired drumming, MIKRONAUGHT makes no apologies but indulges in audio-decadence. 'Neutrino_2.1' is a culmination of a friendship spanning decades and a common artistic dialogue."

McDonough has spent the better part of an autodidactic decade studying the accomplishments of the conceptual/minimal painters and sculptors of the 1960s. Therein he has found an affinity to his own personal approach to art making. This approach has found its fruition in electronica and employs machines of idea and chance as vehicles for expression. He attempts to cultivate a receptive, open ear to naturally occurring phenomenon in an attempt to divorce judgment from the process of creation.
