"Old-EBM...Neo-EBM and Agressive Dancefloor Electronics...this project is setting new standards on what we all call EBM in the past". Formed in 1995 by Julio Saraiva, in Sao Paulo City, the most powerful city in South America and one of the most decadent place in the world: violence, polution, stress, disemployment, corruption, miserable people in contrast to one of best technology of this planet, a true chaotic place. Saraiva started with very basic machines: an yamaha synth workstation where he made the sounds, sequences and samplers; and a multi-effects for the vocals. All was mixed in a 6-ch mixer to a master tape, duplicated and they're sent to worldwide. With the improvement of technology Saraiva could produce more professional sounding songs and by several times he was invited to take part of a lot of compilation on USA and Brazil. In 1999 J. Saraiva has created his own label called 4D Records and founded his own studio called Toxx-O-Drome Studio to release his own works and local bands. Nowadays, with decent equipments and a good experience FRONTRUNNER moved to Japan and Saraiva has a new musician partner, T. Kawasaki, helping Saraiva in Sound Design, Mastering and Engeneering of FRONTRUNNER songs.
