1991 his first demo tape called 'Syndromic Noise' was finished. In the following year Jan extended the equipment with his first own synthesizer – the Kawai K4 – and his style of music finally got a designation. During that period the second demo-tape was created and could be defined as Hardtrance. 1993 was a very eventful year for X-FUSION. At several gigs and techno-parties such as the Innovation Rave (Fantasy/Dülmen) Jan showed his abilities live in front of almost 2000 fans. Not at least he extended his equipment again with the second synthesizer Roland JD800. The following year brought up another three demos until 1997 when the Amiga 500 was replaced by a PC. The style of music evolved into techno/acid/house just to the year 2000 when his first tracks including vocals were produced.
Because of the fact that music was always a method for Jan to express his emotions, it was a small wonder that his style got more atmospheric and became more dusky, at least because he always had an inclination for dark sounds in private. Also by using vocals he got the possibility of expressing his deepest feelings lyrically. 2001 and 2002 two EBM-shaped demos 'Evillive' and the 'Blackout'-EP were produced. Because of those Jan signed his first label-deal at the Indie-Label Dark Dimensions/Scanner in the following year and his first official album 'Dial D For Demons' was released. Nearly one year later (2004) the second album came out: 'Beyond The Pale', which immediately entered the alternative charts. After which one can not think of an EBM-world without X-FUSION. But that´s not the end.... his musically enormous spectrum was proved by the album „Antipode“ of the side-project NOISUF-X, coming out 2005, that in opposite to X-FUSION it dedicates itself to the distorted industrial sounds. But “ANTIPODE” should not be seen at any time as a creative break for X-FUSION, because just in the same year the new double-album „DEMONS OF HATE“ had been brought into life and surprised its listeners with further developed and innovative sound-structures.
In the year 2007 another successful album “ROTTEN TO THE CORE“ was released. It came in 3 different versions and reached position 2 in the german DAC-Charts although most of the songs were not produced for the dance floor. With "VAST ABYSM", released in a limited metal box, X-FUSION celebrates in 2008 the 20th birthday of the band. This album also reached position 2 in the DAC-Charts.
And just about one year later "ULTIMA RATIO" came out.. It again reached position 2 in the DAC Charts, Position 3 in the GEWC Charts and position 9 in the DUC Charts.

Hypnotized
X-Fusion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Desire fulfills
Dream begins
You're hypnotized
No realize
What ever wanted to do
Open your mind
Now your wishes comes true
Which you don't like
And kill the rest
Your hate applies
No restraint
No reason to shame
Why can't your real life
Be the same?
The lyrics to X-Fusion's song Hypnotized depict the dangerous power of desire and the destructive consequences that come with fulfilling those desires. The opening lines of the song indicate that the illusions of the singer have come true and their desires have been fulfilled. The dream-like quality of the song suggests that the singer is in some sort of trance or altered state of consciousness – perhaps they have been hypnotized as the title suggests.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "you're hypnotized" and implies that the singer is unaware of the full extent of their actions. They have no realization of what they are doing and are completely in the thrall of their desires. The next line suggests that the singer is now able to fulfill their every wish, and they use this newfound power to torment those they dislike and even kill others.
The final lines of the song ask a sobering question: why can't the singer's real life be the same as this trance-like state? This indicates that the singer is dissatisfied with their real life and desires a life without restraint or consequences. Overall, the lyrics of Hypnotized are a commentary on the dangerous power of desire and the consequences that can come with the fulfillment of those desires.
