Biography:

What better way to chronicle an epic downfall than through the roots of Synthpop and Electroclash? That was the main thought behind Fractured Forms when DUST IS NOISE began writing. The end result is a dirty yet groovy trip through time and space.

It all started out with a few synth-lines and a few stories to tell. It wasn’t supposed to be fancy but hang somewhere on a rawer level. That was the aim of the music when DUST IS NOISE was formed by Jacob, Mike J and Mike T. Collectively the three members work as the electronic outfit ALTER DER RUINE, an act known for dirty, funky electro. In their downtime they found themselves writing melodic synthpop and while they enjoyed it they knew it couldn’t be worked into the ADR live sets without causing heads to implode. Rather than leave the songs on the shelf they chose to add vocals and dress the tunes up as an entirely different package. With heavy emphasis on a big beat, grooving synths and incensed vocals DUST IS NOISE jammed along on a mission to complete a full length album. After playing a slew of live dates they caught the attention of Vendetta Music and shortly after signed on board to release their debut album titled Fractured Forms.
