About

This is noisenbass.

Sinsect is a hard-hitting industrial strength fusion of power-noise, EBM and drum & bass.

Sinsect was spawned by James Ashley in 1997 as DJ Sinsect in the NYC industrial/noise club scene, with residencies at The Pyramid and Z-Bar, and also had guest appearances at Mother & the Bank. As a natural evolution, he started creating his own material, and worked with other noise artists in NYC, New Jersey, and Atlanta.

Drawing inspiration from a myriad of sources has kept the Sinsect sound in constant flux, with every release being a sonic adventure, from the rhythmic noise of [contained] (2003), the downtempo dark ambient soundscapes of Hidden Agenda (2004) to the harsh power noise beats of Darker Days Ahead (2009).

The newest release in 2010, Shadow Wars, is a 3 track maxi-single setting the stage for the next evolution of Sinsect. Hard, fast and fun, Shadow Wars is a distorted fusion of darkstep drum & bass and power noise, with plenty of dancefloor energy. Rounding it out are nine bonus remixes from a wide variety of artists from many different musical foundations.
