Hailed by many as one of the harshest digital noise artists, DCLXVI (a Montana-based experimental/harsh noise/audio/visual project) was started in 1998 by Patrick Fernandes. The first officially released album, "Thank You For The Memories" came out on Negatron Heavy Industries in 2001 and was the first attempt at creating digital noise/soundscapes. The second release, "Le Poison Fantastique", focused on being more themed and structured. It was also released on Negatron Heavy Industries.
