**Vromb** (recording alias for **Hugo Girard**, real name Mario Girard) is a Canadian [electronic music](/source/Electronic_music) act[1] from [Montreal, Quebec](/source/Montreal,_Quebec). Vromb has been internationally active since 1992.

In the independent underground electronic music scene Vromb has a solid reputation. Vromb creates a unique sound consisting of [industrial music](/source/Industrial_music), minimal techno rhythms, dense music layers and [sci-fi](/source/Sci-fi) sounds. It sometimes also includes the voices of his fictional character, Professeur Heurel Gaudot.

The uniqueness of Vromb can be fully experienced during his rare live appearances.[2] In fact, while electronic musicians will usually perform with a laptop, Vromb is performing with analog synthesizers.

Most releases by Vromb are made available in refined packagings. Most notable is Épisodes released in 2001 by Ant-Zen in Germany.[3] This release is available under three formats. Of which, the most elaborate is a thick metal box, including a 5" vinyl, a luxurious booklet, as well as a CD.

Since 1993, Vromb has released about two dozen records and CDs on reputed labels from [Germany](/source/Germany), [Austria](/source/Austria), [Canada](/source/Canada), The [United States](/source/United_States) and [France](/source/France) such as Ant-Zen, Hymen Records [Tesco Organisation](/source/Tesco_Organisation), Klanggalerie, Angle Rec and [Hushush](/source/Hushush).
