Daniel Victor

In the fall of 2013, Victor launched an Internet radio station called Loveless Radio.

Victor became a spokesperson for mental illness after stating in a 2013 interview with the online magazine Mind Your Mind that he has suffered from severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), depression, and anxiety during his career. He is an advocate of alternative medicine and a focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle to address these conditions illnesses. He stated in 2012 that his OCD affects his approach to music as well as his everyday life.

In 2012, Victor parted ways with his record label MapleMusic Recordings to focus on his own label. On October 30, 2012 Victor released an album as his side project, Black Ribbons, entitled Neromancer. The 12-song album was written and recorded in 2008 and uses heavy synth-pop and noir 80's influences. Victor also produced and recorded the debut album from Vancouver artist Bed of Stars, released on Victor's Ocean Records label on June 11, 2013.

In November 2012 Victor collaborated with Juno-nominated Canadian Rapper D-Sisive on "Don't Turn The Lights Out". The track featured a video shot in the desert which peaked at #20 on Much Music's Countdown (Canada) in 2013.

On September 21, 2010, Victor leaked a song from the album, entitled "The Lonely War", featuring Evan Konrad of the band Bed of Stars. He also announced that due to difficulties with a rupture in his vocal cords, the official release date of the album was delayed from 2009 to late 2011. In spring 2011, the first single/video from Act 3 was released, entitled "Falling Apart" (featuring Bed of Stars). In October, the single "Ghost Ship" (featuring Hot Hot Heat) was released, peaking at #9 for three weeks on ALT Rock in Canada. Act 3 was finally released in North America, and digitally in UK and Australia, on November 18, 2011. It featured guest performances by Hot Hot Heat, Bed of Stars, and Pilot Speed. The album features more vocals from Victor himself, and is generally more uptempo and rock than previous releases.

In 2010 Victor contributed guest vocals to the single "This Time" from the JDiggz Mixtape, The Xperiment. The video reached #1 on the Much Music Countdown and garnered four video nominations, winning the Much Music Video Award for Best Independent Video Of The Year (2011).

In 2008, Victor took time off and decided not to tour the album, instead spending time with friends and family. During this time he produced and recorded an album as part of a side-project, Black Ribbons, a 12-song electro-pop album produced and recorded in a few months, with every song written on the bass guitar.

Victor took about a year to write and record his second album, entitled Act 2: The Blood and the Life Eternal, recorded in his basement studio in 2006/2007 and released on October 30, 2007. The album featured members of groups including Aqualung, The Raveonettes, Mobile, Catherine Wheel, Auf der Maur, Hawksley Workman, Magneta Lane, Mellowdrone, and Ours. The first single released off Act II, "Always", was the first to feature lead vocals from Victor himself, and peaked at #18 on the Canadian Rock Chart. This was followed by the second single, "The World is Darker", featuring Melissa Auf der Maur, and then the driving rock song "Where We Are" featuring Rob Dickinson of the UK band, Catherine Wheel.

Between 2007 and 2011, Victor was working on his third album, Act 3: Love Will Ruin. Writing and production for this album progressed slowly and was affected by various setbacks. Victor eventually wrote and recorded nearly seventy songs for inclusion on this album, but when he had a 'finished' copy in his hands after several years, decided it was unworthy for release, and returned to the studio to start from scratch.

Victor finished the album in September 2005. There were several unreleased tracks written and recorded for Act 1, including the songs "John Dies At 56" (featuring Mogwai), "Throwing Chairs" (featuring Switchfoot), "Shipbuilding" (featuring Unbelievable Truth), and "This Is My Fate" (featuring City and Colour). On September 27, 2005, the album was released independently through Victor's own label, Ocean Records Canada. The first single from the album was "The Grace", featuring Canadian singer Dallas Green, which was Certified Gold and became the sixth most played song on Canadian Rock Radio in 2006. The music video for the song reached #1 on Much Music and modern rock radio, and Victor subsequently went on tour as a support act with Canadian band Our Lady Peace. The album sold just under 40,000 copies in Canada, and received a number of awards and nominations, including a Juno nomination for Best New Artist.
