Noistruct (Boris Otterdam) has been making hardcore and breakcore since 1998, while still playing in Perth extreme noise band "Analogue Seaotter". First experimenting with drum machines and samplers before being introduced to programs like Rebirth, Soundforge and Hammerhead. He founded Perth Digital Hardcore label 8-Bit Recordings in 2001 with The Last Ninja and Deadcode and was actively involved in Perth's breakcore scene for the next 3 years. Frustrated with scene politics, the lack of interest from audiences, being banned from venues and Perth's draconian sound restrictions, he then relocated to Sydney in June 2003 to become a part of the hardcore/breakcore scene there. Playing inner city pubs and warehouse parties with crews like System Corrupt and Killerwatts. He took over the "Syco Radio Show" and later hosted "Illegal Frequencies" every Saturday night on 2SER-FM. Chasing cheaper rent and a change of scenery, Noistruct moved to Melbourne in September 2004 and can usually be seen playing with crews like Graylands and Black Lotus and running "Illegal Frequencies" live nights around the traps. He can also be heard hosting "Illegal Frequencies radio show" on 3RRR-FM 102.7. Noistruct has released 6 CDs to date on 8-Bit Recordings, NZ web-label God Rekidz and French web-label Chase Records and played at the "Distorted" Festival in Melbourne last year. He has also contributed to a few compilations, most recently "Turds Of God" on God Rekidz and "Hey!!! Let's Break" on China's Netwav Records. He also had a remix done by Hard-Off which was released as a split 7" with 1bomb1target earlier this year. As well as Noistruct, Boris makes dark ambient music under the name "Mandark" and has also been in a few bands such as Analogue Seaotter, Ape Shall Not Kill Ape, Mindless Shit, Nauthiz and Dead X Doll. Noistruct quit 8-Bit Recordings in December 2005 to join The Grey Sea. a downloadable ep "Never Trust a Rock Star" will be available at The Grey Sea website soon, followed by new albums "The Last Seaotter" on Grey Sea Records and "Blow In" on God Rekidz. noistruct@hotmail.com more mp3s can be found here: http://thegreysea.tk htp://boris.dmusic.com http://www.mp3.zoob.net (scroll through artists for Noistruct) http://www.mp3.com.au/noistruct http://chaserecords.free.fr/ http://www.blacklotus.zzn.com
