Derick Bailey, aka -dredge-

[edit] Project History

In addition to comprising one-half of industrial rock band Rusted Pig and experimental electronica outfit Redshift Project, Kansas native Derick Bailey, aka -dredge-, also recorded solo as Static:Soul.

First known simply as Static, Bailey expanded the project's name in 1999. Many people were introduced to this new outfit through the track "Sloppy", a futuristic, dark electro tune featured on several compilations, including Flaming Fish Music's Ballistic Test 8 and Automata 1.0. The song, which mixed threatening robotic vocals over foreboding, mechanical beats and droning synths, would become the project's signature song and was eventually mixed with Aussie techno-dance band Paradoxx's song "New Devotion" to form the title track for their Devotio Moderna album.

Bailey further established his reputation as Static:Soul by releasing the Blindfall EP in 2000. The project featured more dark electro tracks in the vain of globalwavesystem, Blank Frame and Skinny Puppy. He also made several more compilation appearances in the early 2000's.
