Formed in 1993, Melbourne, Australia. Tedium (aka. TDM) has always been an independent project involving numerous members with Peter Haren as the mastermind. The best known track might be Fast, an infectious piece of dark yet uplifting electronic-rock that was featured on the daily playlist of national Australian radio station Triple J in 2002. The project began, however, as early-industrial (ie. experimental) music with confronting theatrical performance art. This was showcased on the first album Electronik Love Songs for the Mediocre at Heart (1994). The second album, Simple Life (1997) explored electro-industrial. The track "No You" became well-known locally (and deserved to be much better known). The third album Nothing Final (2001) displayed a further progression, moving towards psychedelic-rock infused with darkwave and electro-industrial; song-writing & arrangements that hint at influences like Placebo, David Bowie & Roger Waters. From 1998 to 2003 the project had an associated clothing/fashion label and shop-front: TDM/TDS Clothing; co-ordinated by long-term band member Audra Cornish & Haren. In 2011 a compilation called Keep it Kleen was released - see the Bandcamp playlist below. Since then Peter Haren has released tracks under the project titles A Separate Reality and Nothing Final as well as his own name.
