In the spring of 1976 two brothers, Rick and Serge Dilorenzo embarked on their maiden voyage of life’s dream to their musical success; hence VIKTIM was born.

Along their journey, they encountered the highs and lows of this very trying business. However, they were not only educated in the music itself but also had a great understanding of finances and marketing as a preponderance of achieving a successful business. As the brothers would quote;”no matter the business, a business is a business, is a business, only the playing field changes”…Equipped with these combined qualities, the two brothers made for a formidable duo, undoubtedly leading to success in a brief time.

Within 5 years VIKTIM had signed a record contract and in no time spearheaded towards international triumph with the release of two successful records.As this was so, Billboard magazine coined them “Americas Duran-Duran” soon upon releasing their first self-titled album; “VIKTIM” -which produced two radio singles; “Dancers In The Night”, followed by “Night Living”. Their second victorious album “Shereena” released two years later, produced another radio single of the same name, “Shereena”.

After years of recording, touring, TV appearances, etc. etc. – VIKTIM decided to take a break and concentrate on other outlets of music; writing, recording, and producing for other artists in their own recording studio which they had finally completed construction and naming it, Alamo Recording Studios.

In the music business, many people behind the scenes help and/or make an artist successful. These noteworthy people range from financial and legal significance to marketing/advertising, musical recording production, engineering, promoters, agencies, etc.

Two of these important people were father and son enterprise team, Dan and Brian Chrabas, whom Rick and Serge met in the dawn of VIKTIM.

In spite of the fact that both parties; father-son and VIKTIM were unable to satisfy their project to its full extent back then, VIKTIM as we know it went on to achieve success a few years later through other initiatives.

Brian Chrabas, the son, never rested on the idea of not ever completing the project with VIKTIM years ago along with his father, yet he had always known that one day he would fulfill his lifelong dream of doing so. Sadly though by the time he and VIKTIM finally renewed their commitment, Dan, the father had passed away.

Nevertheless, after many years, the two brothers Rick and Serge Dilorenzo (VIKTIM) along with their resurrected business partner Brian Chrabas, embark now again on that journey which they started many years ago, yet this time it will continue and they welcome all of you to venture into the journey along with them….
