biographical info
Panik Attack is an electronic, hard
edged alternative rock artist that started in 2001 and is based out of Toronto Ontario.
The music is hybrid, derived from many influences consisting of the darker,
electronically molded side of modern alternative music. Influences include Nine
Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, Linkin
Park, Massive Attack,
etc. Electronic and organic instruments are engaged harmoniously combined with
both melodic and aggressive vocals to create a beautifully ironic soundscape. The
project is a studio act featuring front man Jonathan Miller, a graduate of
Trebas Institute. Since its conception, Panik Attack has remained slightly
under the radar preparing to unleash with the debut record Derealization. The time has come to make Derealization a realization.
Derealization is a highly anticipated 14
song album to be independently released late January 2008. The album is
compiled with Jonathan Miller’s best work to date. Along with the album, a
music video has been created for the single “Save Our Souls.” This video was
professionally shot and edited by Warren P. Sonoda, credited with directing
over 100 music videos for established Canadian artists. The video is now set to
be released to the market in conjunction with the album.
Panik
Attack remains a studio project, concentrating efforts on developing a buzz for
the project and an online presence. The payoff is nearly 30,000 plays on
Myspace along with a growing number of fans everyday. The single “Save Our
Souls” was used in major motion picture “5ive Girls,” which led to a $20,000
music video grant from videoFact. Panik Attack has also completed a number of well
received remixes of artists such as Nine Inch Nails, Gene Simmons, De La Soul and
Chemical Brothers. Many of these remixes have received exceptional reviews on acidplanet.com
and nin.com, online communities centered on remixing and reinventing new sounds
for existing music.
Panik
Attack has been preparing for this moment for years and is finally set to make
the project’s success a reality. Warren P. Sonoda
is quoted as calling Panik Attack “Canada’s own Nine Inch Nails…” and
“an amazingly talented young singer/songwriter/producer…” The project has been
building momentum since it began and can only go up from here.
