Biography

In the year 2002, Synth Operator Christian V encounters PX-200, Synth Operator and 303 Programmer. Both are regular visitors to Synthetic, in cyberspace and in real life. A search through their musical archives shows them to be on a parallel wavelength, and construction soon begins on the first Neuvogue output, Synchronised Emotion. Creation progresses with Birth Machine, Gilt Complex and Futurist Manifesto, until Neuvogue is three, with Oliver Prime as first Vocaliser. Random Number Generator, Robot Building and Androgynetic are processed and the first sightings of Neuvogue ensue, reaching an apex when a sighting is televised in 2003. Prime malfunctions, but is soon replaced.

Neon Strobelight [an improved model of Vocaliser] is assimilated in 2004, providing the final elements and Neuvogue enters a new phase, a unification of synthetic waves and dramatic vocals. Remodelling of the output begins and construction intensifies on the first totally new output, Film. The Manifesto is finally recorded and new sightings are foreseen...
