2020 Coma Recordz (CR118)
Old School Australian breakcore producer Noistruct returns to Coma Recordz for the first release for the label since 2014's "The Circle of Hesitation" EP.
"The Wreckening" is a collection of uncompromising, abrasive, distorted, noisy hardcore breakcore and classic dark IDM with the Noistruct trademark of self referential themes and expression.
Cutting back on oversynthing, oversampling and overmastering and moving away from the more structured, modern dancefloor, predictable amen mashup sound and back towards the "beats to the front" heavier, abstract drum chaos of old.
Reese bass, drops, fills and heavy pads were left out in order to strip back the tracks to a raw, more minimal approach that allows the breaks to be the main focus and brings back the method in which breakcore restructured, subverted and abused the very basics of dance music to it's own definition.
Influenced by the minimal, distorted, overdriven powernoise, breakcore and experimental dark n' heavy IDM and drill n bass of the late 90s and early 2000s. Taking inspiration from classic producers such as Eradicator, Converter, Gescom, Baraki, Needle Sharing, Paul Snowden, Boards Of Canada, Hyperdriver, DJ Rabies, Cex, Bomb20 and Stunt Rock as well as the new school of original dark and heavy breakcore warriors like Erohypnos, Krobatt, Scott Dryman, Shitlip, 3 Past 3 and Etdevagina.
The result is ten tracks that push the noise intensity and tolerance of the listener and reawaken the invigoration and exhiliration of the original breakcore movement of the 20th and early 21st Century. Back when it was a ruthless and formidable opponent of the drug apathy and commercialised mundanity of the quickly tiring worldwide dance music scene.
Somewhere we ironically find ourselves again in the early 20s in the post-EDM disillusionment of DJ superstar culture and Social Media dominance.
Two years in the making. It is probably the last "purely DAW digitally produced" Noistruct release. A final cry of resistance against the generic "banger" hungry, gear obsessed, candy rave emulating, like chasing, pop-core panderers from the era of hopeful and unique, anarchist laptop renegades and mercilessly confrontational, portable noise terrorists.

Except "Break The Fakes" produced on a Coach Bus between Brisbane and Surfer's Paradise Queensland Australia in January 2020 and "Decommissioned" produced at a Boarding House in Laverton Melbourne Victoria Australia in June 2013.
