BORG is the creative outlet of PM aka DJ BORG. Entered the music scene somewhere in 1986 with his first band 'The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse' and being resident DJ at the renown New -Wave club The Phantom in the north of Antwerp. In 1992, after some line-up changes the name 'The Lance of Allotment' was adopted and besides the ‘normal’ gigs they also played as support act for bands like Die Krupps, Dive and The Neon Judgement. Some years ago guitarist Kris Peeters went to enforce industrialists Stin Scatzor while PM became sound engineer for bands like DIVE, INSEKT, THE KLINIK, SONAR, MONOLITH, THE NEON JUDGEMENT, NEON ELECTRONIC, SNOWY RED, ... and became a resident DJ on the regular BODY BEATS (Antwerp) & WELTSCHMERZ (Ghent, Dark Entries magazine) PARTIES leaving no more time for their TLOA project for the time being. The duo emerged and joined forces one more time under the name 'D-Sect' to record a track for the Dark Entries Dark Demons compilation series and a year later again when they accepted the challenge to play exclusive gig @ E-fest (2005, Geel) and thus reworked & recorded some old and new stuff. The crowd (still) loved it! In 2006 BORG joined PRESSURE CONTROL an ambitious new project of VOMITO NEGRO singer/keyboarder GIN DEVO. After numerous concerts concerts all over Europe & even Mexico and massive fan requests GIN DEVO decided the time had come to reanimate the sleeping beast ... VOMITO NEGRO and invited BORG once again to join this new adventure!!
Today the duo is working hard on a new VOMITO NEGRO album that will be released before summer 2009. Check out their new songs on their myspace!
BORG is (also) a DJ: BORG's DJ sets contain a mixture the best danceable weird shit you can find out there! Covering, to name a few, the genres, Elektro - Elektro-Klash - Alternative - Wave – Techno and (crossover) Industrial. The humping crowds on events like the Tinitus Festival (Stockholm, Sweden) and the WGT-2005 festival (Liepzig, Germany) proved that DJ BORG knows well how to play the critical and 'alternative' music lover with his out of the ordinary mixture of good danceable music. DJ BORG also played a convincing set @ the DOUR Festival (2005), between Project Pitchfork & Anne Clark feat. IMPLANT, where he managed to get the excited crowd screaming for more!
