WELCOME TO ANGELDUST/WORLD OF ILLUSION


Welcome to Angeldust - World of Illusion, an unparalleled experience that has been awaiting you. Step into the year 2099, a post-apocalyptic world where Hybro-Mechanical species wander the landscape, and revolutionary illusions, performance art, avant-garde creatures, animals, extreme sports, state-of-the-art pyrotechnics, projection and lighting, augmented by a post-industrial electronic music score sucks you into a vortex of the ultimate audio/visual fusion. 

The name of the band, Angeldust, was a combination of Criss Angel's name and Circle of Dust, Scott's other Industrial music project.

criss ANGEL + circle of DUST = Angeldust.

Angeldust / Criss Angel: World of Illusion (1995-1998)

The show took place at Madison Square Garden. Klay Scott commented that it was a combination of The Crow and The Terminator but with Illusions, a live band, Avant-garde characters that roam the landscape, robotic lighting, television monitors and projectors, performance art pieces and more. During the magical segments, Klayton is often portraying the villain who is out to make Criss Angel do the most impossible magic. During the show, a live band would play alongside with Klayton and Criss Angel playing the music they wrote.
 



Magician Criss Angel was looking for a musician to produce and program his music. He turned his eyes to Circle of Dust frontman Klay Scott. While Scott was on tour, Angel called him asking him to help in his "rock and roll thing", as said by Scott in an interview. Scott took the job because he had financial problems. Over time, Scott and Angel became very good friends.
"We shared the same vision, musically and visually and realized that our strength as a team was much greater than either of us apart." - Klay Scott, HM Magazine interview.




The band only released one album called Musical Conjurings From World of Illusions in 1998 under the name Angeldust and three more albums in 2000 released under Criss Angel's name after the band departed.

Angeldust's music would later be used as the soundtrack for Criss Angel's television show, Mindfreak.
