Sonic Forge Productions Launches in Venice, Florida, Unveiling Enigmatic Ensemble EVO and Debut Album

Venice, Florida – November 4, 2025 – Visionary music producer Scott Prentice today announced the formation of Sonic Forge Productions, a groundbreaking independent label and studio dedicated to crafting immersive soundscapes that capture the soul of the Gulf Coast and beyond. Nestled along the sun-drenched shores of Venice, Florida—where azure waves meet whispering palms—Sonic Forge Productions emerges as a beacon for innovative artistry, blending raw emotional depth with orchestral grandeur to redefine contemporary music.

In a bold inaugural move, Prentice has signed EVO, the elusive Electric Veil Orchestra, as the label’s flagship act and in-house creative force. EVO is a mesmerizing five-piece collective that defies conventional boundaries, weaving intricate layers of rhythm, melody, and texture into sonic tapestries that feel both intimately human and otherworldly. Comprising masterful voices and instrumentalists who operate in a realm of seamless synchronicity.

EVO’s sound is a hypnotic fusion of rootsy blues, jazz and raggae grooves, electronic undercurrents, improvisational flourishes, and soul-stirring undertones—evoking the timeless allure of a midnight tide pulling secrets from the deep.

“Venice has always been a place of hidden rhythms—the crash of waves on fossil-strewn beaches, the hum of evening breezes through the mangroves,” said Prentice. “Sonic Forge Productions is my forge for channeling that energy into music that resonates on a visceral level. Signing EVO feels like striking gold; their presence is electric, their vision boundless. They’re not just a band—they’re the heartbeat of what we’re building here.”

EVO’s self-titled debut album, Electric Veil Orchestra, drops this winter, serving as a love letter to Florida’s coastal mystique. Recorded in the label’s state-of-the-art Venice facility, the record channels the Sunshine State’s sun-soaked spirit through six evocative tracks, each a portal to sunsets, starlit sands, and the quiet poetry of island escapes:

  • Nokomis – A sultry opener pulsing with warm basslines and shimmering strings, mirroring the gentle roll of waves at Nokomis Beach.
  • Venice Beach – An anthemic swell of brass-kissed melodies and driving percussion, capturing the raw, exhilarating energy of Venice’s iconic shores.
  • Cocoa Beach – Ethereal keys and layered harmonies drift like sea foam, evoking the laid-back lure of Cocoa Beach’s endless horizons.

  • Manasota Moon – A midnight ballad laced with emotive bends and subtle swells, under the spell of Manasota Key’s luminous night skies. (Featuring Kira Dawn)
  • Cudjoe Key – Rhythmic undercurrents build to a euphoric crest, channeling the untamed, windswept wilds of Cudjoe Key.
  • Siesta Key – A closing reverie of fluid improvisations and soulful resolve, drifting into the serene, powder-white embrace of Siesta Key.

EVO’s enigmatic lineup—fronted by the commanding Jax Renner on vocals, with Kira Dawn’s evocative electric keyboard, Shane “Shred” Sykes on bass, Lana Pulse commanding percussion, and Tate “Neon” Moon at the helm of synthesizers and orchestration—brings a collective alchemy that’s as captivating in concept as it is in execution. Their performances, often manifesting in immersive, boundary-pushing formats, promise to transport listeners to realms where sound becomes a living, breathing entity.

Sonic Forge Productions is more than a label; it’s a creative sanctuary committed to nurturing voices that echo the untamed beauty of Florida while pushing the frontiers of sonic expression. With EVO at its core, the company is poised to forge a new era of music that lingers like the salt on your skin after a Gulf swim.
