Amir Derakh and Ryan Shuck have been musical partners for 20 years. During their time together they have weaved in and out of mainstream music like a constantly evolving musical fashion house. In the late 90's they were responsible for massive radio and sales hits such as "Blind" (Korn), "Blue Monday," " Stitches," and "Fiction" (Orgy), and recently "Crawl Back In" and "Let Down" (Dead By Sunrise, with their pal Chester Bennington). After enjoying years of traditional music business success, they have spent the last 10 years methodically moving away from the mainstream approach that put them on the map, opting to carefully steer their fans in a new direction, towards their new independent alternative electro rock project Julien-K. In July 2014, Julien-K launched their third album cycle with a 3-song prelude to an ambitious double concept album / esthetic movement that they called "California Noir." In 2017, the band released Time Capsule: A Future Retrospective, a 4 disk, 64 song mega- package aimed at the band’s core fanbase. Julien-K has just completed their 5th and most exciting album, Harmonic Disruptor. Harmonic Disruptor sees the band returning to its heavy industrial rock roots it started in Orgy & their first album Death 2 Analog.
