Virtual Embrace is a dark electro-industrial project captained by the enigmatic and creatively versatile mind of Mike Johnson, also known in the electronic music scene by his pseudonym, DJ CyberChrist. Having emerged in the early 2000s, Virtual Embrace became notable for its aggressive beats, complex synthetic structures, and dystopian lyrical themes, appealing to a dedicated base of fans within the industrial and EBM communities.

With a series of releases that propelled them into the darkened limelight of electro-industrial music, Virtual Embrace's "Hellektro" and its companion limited edition fleshed out the project's reputation for delivering hard-hitting and danceable tracks, merged with a ruthlessly edgy electronic aesthetic. "Escape To Insane" and its accompanying limited bonus disc showcased an evolution in their sonic complexity while maintaining the raw energy that their audience had come to expect. Through releases like "Roots Of Evil - Club EP" and "Hollow and Pure," Virtual Embrace reinforced their foothold in the scene, embodying the relentless spirit of modern industrial music while seamlessly integrating elements of trance and techno to create a sonic experience that was both immersive and unrelenting.
