"sultry darkwave bliss"... somewhere between goth, trip-hop, and electro-pop... with a sexy siren twist..........
..
The ancient Egyptians believed that death brought on a 12-hour journey to the eternal afterlife. Each hour filled with judgment requirements and tasks by Gods and Goddesses. One may successfully reach the Egyptian netherworld at 12 hours and 1 minute.. or.. 12:01. Is this sort of Egyptology responsible for the rumored theory behind the name of Denver band, Project 12:01?
Formed at the turn of the millennium, by Melly and nOjo, Project 12:01 has managed to remain one of the best-kept secrets in Darkwave music. Gorgeous, unearthly female vocals weave their irresistible layers through dark, milky, dancey electronic soundscapes. Melissa "Melly" London's siren-esque vocal stylings range from school-girl whispers to seductive poppy purrs to operatic and eastern influences. Counterpart Noel "nOjo" Johannes can be defined as something between a mad synth scientist and electro gear god.
"Project 12:01 have a saucy minx on vocals and wield great electronic depth charges" - quotes legendary goth-rock journalist, Mick Mercer.
Project 12:01 has shared the stage with a list of well-known international acts, including: KMFDM, Mindless Self Indulgence, 30 Seconds to Mars, Wolfsheim, Gene Loves Jezebel, the Cruxshadows, etc. Adding in additional band members for performance, Project 12:01's extraordinary studio outfit becomes a mind-blowing live act filled with amazing energy and mesmerizing theatrical themes.
Westword Music Award winners (2006), Project 12:01, have a full-length CD, "Last Pharaoh," currently available via CD Baby and I-tunes. "Last Pharaoh," title referring to Queen Cleopatra VII of Egypt, includes 15 enticing tracks, smoothly crossing genres of goth, industrial, trip-hop, electro-pop, and even tribal. "Last Pharaoh" (2004) has been selling internationally and receiving constant positive acclaim from clubs, zines, radio stations, and Project 12:01's ever-growing fan base. People continue to talk about the sultry darkwave bliss of Project 12:01.
