The Overcoming Project – Overcoming EP
The Overcoming Project. Psychedelic Metal with world-class metal musicians Mike Heller (Fear Factory, Malignancy) on drums, Jon Howard (Threat Signal, Imonolith) on vocals, and Sergei “Efes” Fomin (FS Projekt) on bass. Executed by Dr. Mike Trubetskov – Guitarist and Producer at EOL Studios.
”Overcoming” EP depicts a psychedelic journey through immigration, Doctorate degree, Type I Diabetes and insane burnout into discovering the true purpose and becoming a Metal Producer.
Determination, Overcoming, and Victory are more than just heavy songs with killer musicianship. These grow into eternal, psychedelic objects that keep evolving into new dimensions after each listen.
The Overcoming Project was a labor of love and brutal hard work. Having started the songwriting process in 2015, it took 7 years to execute the songs fully. Each production step – arrangement, tracking, and mixing – was performed with the utmost attention to detail and relentless perfectionism. That allowed T.O.P. to gain some recognition.
Since its release, The Overcoming Project has been featured in such magazines, as Metalsucks, Ultimate-Guitar, Spaceuntravel, Lambgoat, HEAVY Magazine, Bravewords, Enigma Online, Hysteria Mag, Metal-Roos, Rock’N’Load Mag, Pete’s Rock Views & News, Insane Blog, Rock You Show, Metalheads Forever, Brutal Planet, Digital Noise Mag.
The Overcoming Project has been played on radio stations Andrew Haug Radio, Triple J The Racket, PBS FM Burning Bitumen, Beautiful Car Crash, and more.

The Overcoming Project – Victory
Melbourne Soloist The Overcoming Project just dropped his crushing new single Victory featuring world-class musicians Mike Heller of Fear Factory and Jon Howard of Threat Signal. Victory is a triumphant closer to the Determination trilogy created as a cathartic release of personal trauma surrounding immigration, a Doctorate degree and Type I Diabetes.
Featuring a relentless and ominous mix of death and doom inspired riffage, spine shrinking breakdowns and fast paced grooves bolstering Howard’s dissonant growls, Victory is sure to please even the most stubborn listeners. Exclusively premiered by Lambgoat, this track is a symbol of refusing to stagnate in the face of adversity & the soundscapes created here represent this with ferocity reminiscent of heavyweights such as Meshuggah and Killswitch Engage.

A tale about consistency and fatigue – music industry burnout
Consistency is the key to success in the music industry. Whether you are a band, solo artist, producer or mastering engineer, consistently showing up to work, creating content, honing the craft and practicing your instrument is what drives your progress.
We get tired, anxious, burnt out or unmotivated. Someone – rarely, others – often.
Physical exercise, mental practices, meditation, keeping habits in check helps to maintain the energy.
However, at time that doesn’t work. Then you just do it anyways. Because you have one life to devote to music, and every moment is precious for your growth.

Devolution – Enjoy The Silence (Cover) ft. Jon Howard (Threat Signal, Imonolith), and Christian Olde Wolbers (Fear Factory). Produced by Doctor Mike Trubetskov at EOL Studios
The DEVOLUTION project started mid last year, when Nathan reached out to me to just have a casual chat about the music and do some remote production and mixing. We jumped on a few Zoom calls, refined what guys were after, and did some production sessions. Eric played MIDI drums in real time on Zoom with me, and I suggested some minor changes. Fast forward for today, Devolution lads have come a long way! I produced their EP, including this insane ENJOY THE SILENCE cover. Nathan reached out to Jon Howard who kindly agreed to do vocals, mixing and co-production with some synths. The lads have recorded real drums and collaborated with Christian Olde Wolbers on massive bass duties. Apparently, my coaching works and allows musos to grow and reach some heights!!
Staying Present when Recording Metal
Staying Present and Mindful when Recording Metal. It’s all about the mindset. The state of mind that you are in during the recording session in the studio or at home, dictates the end result. The way you feel translates into your guitar, bass, drums and vocal recording, and even mixes. Consider tuning your mind into your music and not losing the big picture, and the results will follow.
