eH Factor, aka Ed Hecht, first heard the siren call of the
synthesizer in 1977. The catalyst: the synth riff in Styx's "Fooling
Yourself", which induced overplay of the 45 record (What's that?),
ad nauseum. Equally captivating were the vocoded vocals in ELO's
"Mister Blue Sky". Seeing Gary Numan perform "Cars" on ôSaturday
Night Liveö two years later hooked him for life.
Five years later, a friendÆs small Casio (bought in a now extinct
catalog showroom) was insufficient to sate his thirst for the
strange and wonderful, swirly instrument. Banging out two to three
chord songs about Lebanon, nuclear holocaust, and the Guardian
Angels, he longed for the day he would have a tool at his disposal
that matched the cool textures of Talk Talk, Men Without Hats,
Eurythmics and Sparks.
Ironically, he wouldn't own a real synthesizer for another 20 years.
In the meantime, he continued to fill his electronic musical void
with the likes of Soft Cell, Bill Nelson, Depeche Mode, Yaz,
Ultravox, Visage, OMD, and many others. USA NetworkÆs ôRadio 1990ö
and MTVÆs ô120 Minutesö (honorable mention to IRS' "The Cutting
Edge") provided a steady musical diet for years.
In 1997, he purchased his first real synth: an Alesis QS6.1 (along
with a Fostex 8-track recorder). Having only one synth and no drum
machines or sequencers, it was just in time that he discovered Sonic
Foundry's (now Sony's) ACID looping program. It was perhaps his
smartest impulse buy ever. He was instantaneously addicted. The
addition of a DAW in the form of Cakewalk's Pro Audio 8 meant saying
goodbye to external recorders and graduating to hard disk recording.
He didn't leave the house for weeks.
In 2002, finally overcoming his midiphobia, he bought Propellerheads
legendary Reason synth software. (Remember kids: MIDI is our
friend!) He now prefers soft synths to hardware synths. He still
uses ACID on occasion, but prefers the "from scratch" method with
Reason. His music has appeared in various industrial productions, as
well as on Payback, a video game for Amiga, Mac, and GameBoy
Advance. He continues to collaborate with David Anderson in Burn
Like Nero (a bi-coastal, electroclash studio project) and drinks too
much caffeine.

contribute to the growing sale losses of record companies.
Unfortunately our style primarily targets small, independant labels
that need sales to survive.
For these reasons we ask you not to distribute this release on public
sites or P2P tools; if more and more receive their music from the net,
artists and labels will have to face even less sells than nowadays.
Please do not consider this release as a substitute to the original, but
only as a way to check out and learn about new music.
We absolutely do not approve of DJs or other individuals that earn
money from pirated music - Don't let them get their hands on it!
By buying the albums you like you disperse the guilt we feel by
releasing this music - Enjoy the music and be fair with the artists!
YOUR support is required to keep them financially alive and producing!
