About
“On a route to light to mid-weight rhythm electronica, Joseph Gogh proposes his own project Lightphaser with a quality sequence of tracks that showcase his penchant and talent for spacey atmospheres, upbeat rhythms, and a wink or two to quality EBM.”
Gianfranco Sciacca - Darklife
“In conclusion, this is a very cool release with a lot of sonic variety. ...'Falling Horizon,' 'Eternity,' and 'Control,' being particularly good tracks. Definitely worth checking out. ”
Steve Mecca - Chain D.L.K.
Lightphaser project was initiated by Joseph Gogh around 1998. First music inspirations came from the EBM music scene and from video game soundtracks. At that time a personal computer was the only tool for composing. However, due to unavailable resources the project was put on hold for an indefinite time. After some years of rest it was restarted in 2008 with a new single Falling Horizon. Soon a new album called Flashback was produced by the summer of 2009. The Flashback got self-released in January of 2010, that actually was the first official release. The sound got spiced up with chill-out elements, though the main emphasis is still on experiments of different sound schemes mixed with industrial elements. Meanwhile, in summer of 2009 an earlier unreleased track called The Last Game got featured on Electro Arc label's compilation album "Net.Ware Twist of Fate" along with several other EBM/electro bands and later the "Out of Time" from Flashback appeared on the 5th album "Victory Monuments" from the Electro Arc's "Net.Ware" series. The newest release is called Eternity, that is actually a remix EP including several reworked songs from Flashback. It was released in February as a limited edition of 111 pieces of hard copy CDs and at the same time it was published on the official site as a free downloadable MP3 package.
