The duo currently releases music on the North American distributor [[Metropolis Records]], and the European [[record label]] Out of Line. ==History== Decoded Feedback was formed in 1993 by Marco Biagiotti of Italy and Yone Dudas of Hungary (both live in Canada). The two gained quick prominence after the release of their self-titled [[Demo (music)|demo tape]] and subsequent review by [[Belgium|Belgian]] industrial music magazine ''Sideline''. Decoded Feedback was soon signed to [[Europe]]'s Hard Records, which released their first full-length CD ''Overdosing''[http://www.discogs.com/label/Hard+Records], and gained the attention of another prominent European record label, [[Zoth Ommog]]. The latter released Decoded Feedback's second disc, ''Technophoby'' in 1997. In the vein of releasing CDs that gain the attention of other record labels, ''Technophoby'' caught the attention of [[United States|American]] industrial music distributors [[Metropolis Records]], who released domestic versions of all subsequent Decoded Feedback releases. 1998's ''Bio-Vital'' was the first Decoded Feedback album to enter the German Alternative Charts (DAC), and that same year also saw the release of a second album with new tracks and remixes called ''Evolution''. In 2000, Biagiotti and Dudas signed to the record label Bloodline to release ''Mechanical Horizon'', which was preceded by the first ever Decoded Feedback single, ''Reflect in Silence''. Three years later, Decoded Feedback switched to what is now their current record label, Out of Line, and released ''Shockwave'', which again was preceded by a single, ''Phoenix''. In 2005, the duo released their most recent album, ''Combustion'' as well as the soundtrack for the [[Cindy Murdoch]]'s short zombie film, ''Red Men Rising''. ===Live=== Decoded Feedback have played several live shows throughout Europe. The band spent the greater part of 2001 touring with [[Noisex]] and [[Sonar (band)|Sonar]] and again in 2003 with [[Haujobb]]. They have also played the [[M'era Luna Festival]], the [[Blacksun Festival]] in the USA, Infest 2005, and the Out of Line Festival, as well as touring with fellow Metropolis Records label mates [[God Module]] and [[Blutengel]]. ==Philosophy and style== Biagiotti and Dudas originally experimented with the fusion of [[punk music|punk]] and electro, but over time developed a more cold, industrial-oriented sound. By the time ''Evolution'' was released, they had attempted to create a blend of industrial and [[electronic body music]], with "interwoven dance floor textures and symphonic melodies". [http://www.decodedfeedback.com/bio.html] This sound culminated with ''Mechanical Horizon'', but turned sharply with ''Shockwave'', an album that was seen as somewhat of a return to an older style. [http://www.decodedfeedback.com/bio.html] The duo's most recent release, ''Combustion'', continues in this trend. Both members have also cited the tensions that exist between genders and international boundaries, as well as their own unique backgrounds, as a driving force behind their music - especially in an attempt to create their own unique style. [http://www.decodedfeedback.com/bio.html] Decoded Feedback's music is popular within the darker electronic music scene, especially among fans of [[electro-industrial]] music. Comparable artists include fellow [[Metropolis Records]] label mates [[Haujobb]], [[Wumpscut]], [[Suicide Commando]], and [[Front Line Assembly]], as well as [[Zoth Ommog]] label mates [[X Marks the Pedwalk]] and Evil's Toy. ==Members== *Marco Biagiotti - vocals, lyrics, samples, sequences, arrangement, basses, and drums. *Yone Dudas - keyboards, sequences, arrangement, samples, basses, drums, and lyrics.
