nolongerhuman has long been a celebrated staple of the international and North American aggressive electronic music scenes, but has spent most of those years operating as an instrumental and driving force in the architecture of Portland's cultural contributions to what is widely referred to as “Aggrotech” and “Terror EBM”. These categorizations, however, ultimately and undeniably fall short, painting far too plain a picture for a band whose sound has continually grown and evolved in its complexity and unrelentingly delivery of punishing and beat-driven social, emotional, and political commentary. nolongerhuman is a soundtrack to both the human condition and its continued struggle, a transcendence and delivery to somewhere and something entirely new.
Since 1999, Fraqtured : Sound has been a name long synonymous with much of Portland's Dark Electronic, Industrial, and underground histories. For nearly 25 years, his live performances, live event production, and collaborative work with many of the most celebrated and influential contemporary electronic and experimental artists have taken him around the globe. Tonight, Fraqtured : Sound returns to Portland after nearly a decade since his last live performance in the city, to share his unique brand of darkened electro and ritual noise - An intimate and haunting exploration of what was, what is, and what shall be. These are the soundscapes of the forgotten.
Ghost Motor - A seemingly endless exception to nearly every genre one could attempt to pigeonhole them into. They effortlessly combine and transition through a lexicon of sonic styles and writing, never staying in one place long enough to be kept there. With a sound uniquely all their own, Ghost Motor incorporates a near-perfect blend of Dark Shoegaze, Cold Dark Wave, Goth, and Post-Industrial.

nolongerhuman Biography
With a decade of experience in creating harsh and dark electro music, nolongerhuman has gained a large and loyal fan base with his uncompromising melodies and deeply personal lyrics.
nolongerhuman has produced three full-length albums and has been featured on numerous remixes and compilations, toured the United States, debuted new releases in the Top 10 on the German Electronic Web Charts, and has systematically produced genre-bending harsh electronics with a sense of emotion rarely seen.
Combining music theory and personal, soul-searching experiences with harsh industrial is something rare in the genre, but nolongerhuman utilizes a masterful mixture of hard-hitting beats, catchy keyboard riffs, impeccable synth placement, and a haunting sense of ambiance, all of which inject soul and beauty into a genre that is typically defined by volume and attack factor. Vocal samples put nolongerhuman in a historical context, harking back to the early 90’s industrial while also enhancing the diary-esque lyrics of the music.
And while the songs work easily on the dance floor, they also offer the listener a thought-provoking experience with running themes of introspection, integrity, society, and a culture of apathy and blind faith in a somewhat dystopian fashion.
nolongerhuman’s fourth album ‘Marionette’ is currently in progress for release early 2023. ‘Marionette’ is a reflection of individuals in the world and their place in society. This album’s mission is to engage the audience with classic industrial and electronic music while incorporating a theatrical theme composed to represent the lifespan of an individual.
“Beautiful is not a word easily associated with harsh electro but nolongerhuman injects soul and beauty into a genre that is usually just defined by volume and attack factor.” - Christian Petke, Founder & Owner, COP International
“Taking a bold step forward to cross the line into new territory, this man has come out with a brilliant album…” - Steven Gullotta, Brutal Resonance
“nolongerhuman’s diary entry like lyrics set the band apart from some of the other industrial bands out now and the creepy sound to each track is delightful and well executed.” - Ovis Terrell Ross, Regen Magazine
