Biography

India (2003 – present)

Dark Project is an alternative band from India formed in 2003.

Dark Project plays Alternative/Progressive music in the English language. This in a layman’s language can be termed as “User friendly” Progressive Rock. The main influence of the band’s music comes from bands like Incubus, 3 Doors Down, Pink Floyd as well as progressive rock bands like Opeth, Dream Theater and Porcupine Tree. The sound of the band is unique to its name and is definitely not common with any of the Indian bands that exist or have existed until now on the Independent Circuit. This is the biggest “Selling Point” for the band.

Dark Project was perceived and conceived in the year 2003 by Sauvik Biswas and Sudipto Biswas. With the initial efforts of the founder members, even before Dark Project was officially formed, they released a self titled EP on their website. This was a total DIY (Do-It-Yourself) effort, right from gathering the instruments with limited money to programming and recording every nuance on the EP. The EP generated quite a bit of buzz on the net with their songs reaching a few places via free download and via Soundclick, an online radio station. Though this was a very nominal achievement, yet they started to garner a lot of interest in their colleges as well as among their peers. This led to the formation of a complete band with Ugyal Tshering Lama on guitars, keyboards and harmonica, Arunava Chakrabarti on drums and Bakaraju Bharath on bass. These guys took on the stage for the first time in the year 2006. This was one of those monumental shows which gave them enough push to take it one notch higher.
