Visionary Producer Michael Szewczyk Releases His Debut Album As TEXTBEAK Produced by Jon Fryer (DEPECHE MODE, NIN), Announces US Tour With Labelmates SEARMANAS!

Textbeak is the dark electronic project from visionary DJ and producer Michael Szewczyk, a veteran of the experimental industrial music scene since the late 1980s. Influenced by artists such as Coil, Einstürzende Neubauten and early Public Image Ltd, Szewczyk founded Textbeak (originally TXTBK) in 1998 and began releasing singles, EPs, and remixes. Now, he’s ready to debut his first ever full-length release that features a host of likeminded avant garde musical friends including Mark Stewart (The Pop Group and The Mafia), Janine Rainforth (Maximum Joy), Peter Hope (Hoodoo Talk), Yvette Winkler (Vaselyne), Searmanas, Android (Missile Command), Tim Smith (Lestat), Bestial Mouths and more! The album, Sick For Songs A Season Eats, is produced by legendary producer Jon Fryer who has worked with the founders of modern dark electronic music such as Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, Fad Gadget and others! The album is available now on both CD and digital.

Additionally, Textbeak has announced a US tour with fellow Cleopatra Records recording artists Searmanas. See here for more info: https://www.facebook.com/tours/2104513309822972/
