I'm starting a sort of alt-dance band. 3 people - a prog-house DJ for electronic percussion (influences: Underworld, The Prodigy, Pet Shop Boys), a bebop-style trumpet on lead (influences: Lee Morgan, Art Blakey), a crusty, distorted rhythm guitar with shouted vocals (influences: Oathbreaker, Martyrdöd, Ulver). Group influences: The Wedding Present, Carter USM.
Thoughts? What do you think of fusion projects? What would you like to put together?

This could be really cool if done well!
I'm working on an album that has aspects of indie folk, noise rock, IDM, neofolk, black metal (influenced by a wide variety of black metal, but mostly the trve kind so no one can shoot me), progressive rock, and new romantic. The difficult part is finding a balance with all of the genres that doesn't make them too distracting a change of pace, as it all needs to flow together. I'm mainly just focusing on indie folk and neofolk for the general sound, tossing between the two on nearly every song, but the other genres do have prominence if that counts.
Pic related has been very influential on my style of guitar playing, though the style of music on this album isn't very prominent.
Where can I find the music you make?

Thanks! Your project sounds cool - I'd recommend Gowns, if you haven't checked them out already. They were the noise-folk project EMA started out in.
I don't have anything up yet, but I'll start a Bandcamp if things go well

I'll certainly check them out!
And hey, I'm glad to hear! Make a thread when you get some material together.
