The Omega Experiment
The Omega Experiment is from Muskegon, MI USA. They are a two piece progressive metal outfit with various ambient and electronic elements. The band consists of Dan Wieten - All guitar, bass, drum programming, some samples, production/engineering, and Ryan Aldridge - Keyboards, samples, engineering. The band has guest vocalists to contribute to recordings, and for the time being does not play live. Guest vocalists are Victor Lazareus, Bob Guthrie, and Jeremy DeWitt (All hailing from Muskegon).
The Omega Experiment originally started as an auto-biographical concept idea by Dan in 2007. He wanted to tell the story of his life up to that point through music and lyrics, but it remained a fleeting idea until the resources available to realize the concept were presented. In the winter of 2009, Dan was busy writing instrumental solo material. His long-time friend and cousin Ryan Aldridge bought a keyboard, and the two started jamming out ideas, which Dan suggested would work with his concept. The same meanings are still present, but the duo now perceives the concept from a more general perspective, as not to alienate the listener.
The Omega Experiment's musical influences are vast and many. Some include: Devin Townsend, Pain of Salvation, Frost, Dream Theater, Styx, Rush, and Mike Patton. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
