Harlequins Enigma With New Born Album - "Alt" - Released At Nimbit

Alt is born from our 2nd database, where the 1st had conventional genres to offer.
Blood, sweat & tears along the way is a fact that still remains,
Due to pressure in a continuance of a series of hacking. Alt genres include Trip Hop, Industrial, Extreme Techno, Metal & Surprises.

Åge Riisnes did this album mainly on his own, but have help from Katie Leung on "Legends".

Do not compare our octagon volume 2 dance album with alt, that doesn't make sense. We seek new audiences with each release & there are alot of genres still coming.

Alt brings back alot of painful memories, but i try looking ahead.
Expect octagon volume 3 - battle without dishonour, next month, the hip hop album, which is one of our best.

notes from harlequins enigma owner, age riisnes around his inspiration:

i drew much inspiration from early 80s/90s+ hits in my heart & had a nice period in 2009 where many of the "skyscrapers" came to life. a romance had much to do with parts of it. in my early ophidian period, i was influenced by a vast number of artists. including amiga artists atjazz, øistein j. eide - boom jinx, jesper kyd, bjørn lynne & others - in addition i had a nice collection of audio cd's like jean michel jarre - chronologie, vangelis - blade runner, pink floyd - the wall, limp bizkit, korn, p.o.d., tons of the best billboard music & classical pieces from beethoven, grieg, wagner & others. they were all part of my root elements. i also had an early heavy metal period with favourites at the time: metallica, motley crue, ratt, whitesnake, rainbow, the clash & more + i grew fond of kenji kawai's ghost in the shell soundtrack among others as my roots were made from early 1990's to the next millenium. night pulse & the silhouette of dr. voodoo was based much upon heartbeat b.p.m. - but much of it drew juice from manga metal etc, like alt.
