| Profile: | Chris Cozort has been steadily making a name for himself in the underground industrial/electronic music scene, but not primarily as a musician. Sure enough, the man has released his debut album as Iammynewt, a collaboration with fellow artist Skullduggery, titled Ohaka, which features the two artists' wide range of glitch-laden experimentalism and breakbeat-driven industrial noise. Not only that, but Iammynewt's music has appeared in a number of compilations from Underground, Inc.'s Notes from Thee Real Underground to Glitch Mode Recordings' Hordes of the Elite and DarkSonus, Vol. 1, bringing his eclectic style to a scene in need of some new heroes to call their own. However, where Cozort's skills truly shine are in his production and mastering, working with such groups as Pigface, Cyanotic, Empty, and Lucidstatic to name but a few, as well as mastering the sampler compilation from Arable Farmland, all culminating in the establishment of Trozoc Productions, an imprint through which Cozort makes his skills behind the mixing desk available to the new generation of up-and-coming artists looking for professional sound quality in the laptop age.
