Maldoror

A.k.a. Bret V.

Bret grew up in the San Francisco bay area in the late 70's /early 80's, and gained much of his taste for music in the burgeoning local industrial scene there. Finally made a start at KWVA 88.1 FM in Eugene, Oregon in the first half of the 90's. His radio show "Psychic Surgery" was described in a magazine review as "... music to make your ears bleed". Soon after, joined the SIN (Sound Integrated Nation) sound system, taking part in events throughout the northwest USA, including numerous underground fetish evenings. SIN became, for many, a means by which to challenge listeners to not only enjoy the music, but to simultaneously shake them out of every day complacency in life. He continued to gain yet more experience as a resident dj at clubs such as the now defunct "Nexus". He has gone on to entertain audiences of discerning listeners in countries on both sides of the Atlantic; known for sets mixing a punishing, unique blend of ebm, rhythmic industrial and power electronics, djMaldoror continues to inspire both saints and sinners alike, in numerous dark places round the globe. Has been spotted recently in the Czech Republic, Germany, Poland and Slovakia. The correct form of his name is, since 1992, djMaldoror.
