History
After two years of working on their album, it was in 2002 when they debuted their self titled album “Epsilon Minus”. They signed with the Belgian record company Alfa Matrix. In 2003, Epsilon Minus returned with “Mark II”, exploring alternate directions in electronic dance. Parkin left the band in 2004 to form Ayria. She also signed with Alfa Matrix and released her album “Debris”. However, Shwadchuck continued Epsilon Minus as essentially a solo act, releasing the “Pre-Initialized EP” and the “Reinitialized” LP, exhibiting greater psytrance and IDM influences. In an interview Bogart stated, “Jenn and I just didn’t belong together. I grew out of the kind of music we were making and there wasn’t room for a partner in the things I wanted to be doing.” In Bogart’s third album “Reinitialized”, he chose to collaborate with numerous vocalists to provide him with the opportunity to reflect a different sound to his music. Kristy Venrick (The Azoic), Martha M. Arce (Distorted Reality), Eric Oehler (Null Device), and Ned Kirby (Stromkern) were various collaborations that he featured in this album. In 2005, Bogart decided to stop Epsilon Minus, releasing the short "R.I.P." EP of leftovers and outtakes. He briefly resurrected Epsilon Minus to perform a remix for The Gothsicles.
