Zardonic

Zardonic is a musician and producer of drum and bass music from Barquisimeto, Venezuela.

He started composing music at the age of 16, and at 18 he was named Best Keyboardist at the 2002-2003 Metal Made in Venezuela Awards. His dedication and productivity gained him a cult following in the Venezuelan metal scene under his moniker Gorepriest.

Zardonic evolved through various metal incarnations and numerous projects, further distinguishing himself as an in-demand remixer for extreme metal bands, including Impaled (California), The Berzerker (Australia), Dark Funeral (Sweden), and Gorgoroth (Norway).

Zardonic makes music with a fusion of industrial, metal, goth and ambient genres as well under different aliases.

In 2006 Zardonic's first tracks Her Lust for Blood and Scourge were signed to Death Brigade Records. In 2007, AK1200, one of the first producers of drum and bass in North America, selected Zardonic’s Moonlight Ceremony (which used indigenous venezuelan drum samples) for his Weapons of Tomorrow CD which gave further fame to the young producer.

Zardonic remixed AK1200‘s classic Junior’s Tune in 2009 and was commissioned by Dieselboy to do sound design for the Planet of the Drums 10th Anniversary Tour video intro.

MC Messinian cooperated with Zardonic on his track Policia by rapping on it.

Zardonic also tries to be supportive of aspiring producers by releasing free tracks on his net label Zardonic Recordings.
