With already established origins in first industrial, then techno,
Grey created the Murkbox moniker in 1996.
The sound is essentially various forms of electronic
experimentalism usually drenched in distortion. More often than not,
Murkbox is beat oriented; overdriven electro, breakbeats, and glitch
peppered with classic horror and sci-fi samples.
Murkbox also has forays
into ambient noisescapes well illustrated by recent Bad Taste release
Binary Drift. A blending of all these elements is the usual fare for
a live Murkbox performance.
Primary distribution of the the music has been handled by Bad Taste.
However, in recent years there have also been associations with lokol as well as Hipnotik Records based in France.
