Autumnist (formerly Abuse)
A hypnotic blend of up-to-date electronica with genre crossing as its manifest. In its wide-spectral electronic mix THE AUTUMNIST combines ambient with soundwalls of breakbeat and hip-hop beats, hi-tech courses with lo-fi pop, bizzare movie-like atmospheres with extraterrestrial folklore. The master Vlado Durajka, known before as ABUSE from the EPs 4th Floor Thinking (2001, Kurare Records) and Sleepfields (2002, Deadred Records) as well from remixes for Mimetic, Ecstasy of St. Theresa, Veneer, Khoiba, Nierika and many others. His highly acclaimed first album The Great Outdoors was released in 2004 (Deadred Records), followed by numerous live appearances, including Austin's South By Southwest, with the live band and VJ supporting Durajka's laptop. THE AUTUMNIST offers more studio and creative space for live instruments. THE AUTUMNIST live is now an impressive five piece band with electronics, drums, guitar, bass and turntablist/scratches visually supported with VJ.
