James Ray has started from relatively simple and minimalist sounds, moving along aggressive
guitar-sampled industrial techno over onto full trance-based techno albums within various bands
and a variety of projects.

- plus the song F.U.C.K from the then oncoming The MK Ultra album This Is This.
Also in 1995 a project titled "Paris Riots" was due to be released by Merciful Release.
It never saw the light of day apart from the fact that in the mid-2000s a CD titled "Jacob's Ladder"
surfaced in an online auction. As far as we know, this CD contained only one track and was accompanied by
a file, which allegedly showed the according contract between James Ray and Eldritch Boulevard.<br/A
