Hunz

Real Name:
Johannes Van Vliet
Profile:
Australian Hans Van Vilet's Hunz project has been a long time in the making. He started by fiddling with 'modules' back in the early 90s with the legendary modgroup Five Musicians and acquiring a host of followers with his original sound and vocal work. He then recorded 2 albums and toured with rock/rap group Beanbag, who grabbed a dedicated fanbase before dissipating in 2003..
Now Hunz is back on singing duty, returning to his roots and producing his music. When Victims Fight is a manifest of his outstanding talent; the crisp, poignant beatwork and evocative synth pops and glitches are reinvented when layered between Hunz' emotive voice. Somewhere between Radiohead, Telefon tel aviv and Kate Bush, his music is a testament to pop music and originality. A visionary, he created every facet of this album to be regarded as a whole, from his soulful music, to his award-winning video production to his surrealist art. Hunz fills a crevasse in modern pop music with his honesty, fragility and innovation.
