M\u00f8rk Skog<\/strong> has started in the early months of 2006, initially as a minimalistic dark ambient project, influenced by ambient instrumentals and intros of early black metal. After two demos, the project was suspended, in order to focus more on metal music. M\u00f8rk Skog reignited in 2008, this time more into the post-industrial and experimental underground, touching nearly all genres of them in the coming five years (including dark ambient, noise, neoclassical, electro-industrial and even martial for one song in 2010) and releasing many demos, EPs and albums. After releasing a tribute album to H. P. Lovecraft and ENDVRA titled Dreams of Black Mountains, the project was closed down forever in 2013 in order to focus more on Kraschau (containing dark ambient parts in it\u2019s last album, Une Foi d’Acier).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WarLord<\/strong> was a short lived experiment to make epic, folk and orchestral extreme metal music from early 2006 to 2007. Most of the demos and fragments were only \u201crecorded\u201d with primitive MIDI programs and cheap synths at the time. There were even a full-length album were composed, but never recorded which was intended to be a fusion of medieval music, power- and black metal, influenced by Adam\u2019s favourite metal band ever, the mighty and epic british band, Bal-Sagoth. However many ideas of melodies lives on later productions as Adam\u2019s first project ever, such as Ant\u00edco and even Kraschau, if you listen carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HYPERCOSMIC <\/strong>was another experiment to make black metal music in 2007, already under the influence of the recently discovered EBM and electro-industrial music it was inteded to be a mixture of these genres, as can be heard on the survived demos. After an unsuccessful attempt to form it as a live act, it was closed down in 2008 and Adam started to focus on a project in a new genre, Durch Heer und Kraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.M.E.<\/strong> was a progressive-melodic black metal band in which Adam has played keyboards and did vocals. It was founded in 2007, recorded a two-track EP in early 2008, which was praised in the Hungarian underground by the critics for it\u2019s use of odd time signatures, however after many unsuccesful efforts to find a drummer it was disbanded (the drums on the EP was recorded by the drummer of a well-known hungarian death metal band, Watch My Dying)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project named directly as Adam Berces was also founded in 2006. Until 2008 he recorded synth adaptations of classical music influenced by artists like Wendy Carlos or Tomita. After discovering minimal wave music he restarted the project in 2011, it\u2019s anthology will be released on the forthcoming compilations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
