Bryan Eddy, aka Culture Brain, aka the Phantasmal Thrilla, is the mouse on a treadmill you see when you open up NRW Gaming and look inside. It is said that his eyes are full of madness, so avert your gaze and be content with videos and articles. Bryan lives a hermit-like existence in Raleigh, NC.

Joey Edsall, Graphic Novel Editor
Joey Edsall was born and raised near Scranton, Pennsylvania. He has always immersed himself in art, being an avid fan of film and music. In addition to the electronic production aspect of music, he is the lead guitarist of Scranton-based post-hardcore band Give Us Your Bones.

Andrew Zistler, Music Editor
Born in a rural Rust Belt town, Andrew Zistler was raised on moldy books, dial-up internet and old VHS tapes of long-canceled Saturday morning cartoons.
Eventually Andrew traded the middle of nowhere for a jungle of concrete, where he now works as a freelance journalist and web producer.
An ardent admirer of the written word and electronic music, Andrew began his love affair with all things retro wave after discovering a certain heady blend of “mid-fi-synth-wave-slow-motion-funk” in late 2010.

Steven Wilcoxson, Retrowave Song Editor
Robin Ono, Interview Editor
Robin is a writer born and raised in the small country of Luxemburg.
Eurasian, raised English and schooled in the french educational system, the task of figuring out which olympic team to root for triggers a deep, harrowing existential crisis in his soul. Over the years, his go-to response when asked about his origins has come to be funnelled down into a single phrase:
“I am basically a white man dipped in soy sauce”.
Having spent most of his childhood years nesting in the solace of video games and Cartoon Network, his interest would later become fixated on the record collection left behind by his elder siblings. His passion-turned-obsession for newfound musical and artistic subcultures is now channeled through his output as a freelance contributor and journalist, writing articles and conducting interviews for both English and French-speaking written media.

YEAR 2086.
The human race, as you know it, no longer exists.
In the first decades of the XXI century, a minimalism trend
fascinated mankind, prompting it to seek simplicity
and essentially in every aspect of life.
Human existence began a process of refinement,
eliminating everything that could be defined useless.
It was the dawn of a New Era, where “less” was “more”
