Our 2023 Album "Inclusions" is now available at minorarc.bandcamp.com

Minorarc is a progressive metal, dark classical and electronic experimental music project by Australian producer / underground community founder Ivan Bullock. A sonic exploration of despair and regret, built through piano, guitar, bass and synthesis.

The debut album “Minorarc” was released in 2010, and formed a relentless shift from earlier works (Mystral Tide project 1999-2010), into a new world of decay and urban ruin.

Several performances and four years on, an Involution EP was quietly released as a collection of new material and re-interpretations. Classical and orchestral rivers flowed through a metallic guitar wasteland of discontent and decline.

Minorarc would like to thank its contributors Ben of Cassandra’s Myth / Sleeplab and Brett of Sarcophony for their bass and vocal guest artistry in this project to date.

I'm a musical  chameleon. I love all the new bass music stuff. Been singing in rock bands since I was a kid. Currently trying to get to grips with Abelton Live. Skrillex better watch out!

Darkstereo is an independent source of news and reviews about melancholic, underground, experimental and extreme music.

Cold divide combine genres to create an uncompromising, original sound. Apocalyptic, menacing and memorable.

From the beginning, Cold Divide have worked hard to ensure that they are a live act to be reckoned with, incorporating live synths, loops and glitched out mayhem from sources both hardware and software alongside heavy rock drums and guitars. This intense and continually evolving process of combining genres and sounds is a vital part of the bands identity, since the production and sound design of their recordings are as equally important as their live performances.

To date the band have supported international acts such as: Combichrist (Norway/USA),  Grendel (Netherlands), Nachtmar (Austria) and Lab4 (UK).

Cold divide have also remixed artists such as Frontline assembly (Canada) and Distaudio (Australia). They have also had the track "Plagueworthy" from their debut ep Grand manipulations used in the in-game soundtrack for the online multiplayer game "APB", which was developed by the same team as grand theft auto and features other artists such as Pendulum.

Heavy slabs of guitar. Vocals that can soar, snarl and penetrate. Synths and bass that sound like the very fabric of space and time being ripped apart. Drums that make you want to dance but kick you in the chest. Cold Divide aspire to create their own sound. That unique combination that only they can make, so as soon as you hear it, you know. Cold divide want to make sounds you've never heard before, but will want to hear again and again and again.

November 2012  will see the release of their second EP "weaponized". Along with a huge push of promotion for this release, the band will continue playing live into the new year as well as begin writing for a debut album.  Cold divide are not thinking small, and hope to make their way overseas as soon as possible to show the world what they've got.

PLEASE NOTE: This page was initially set up to have somewhere temporary to dump tracks and recordings being passed between myself and other collaborators. 

Since 2021 it has become more of a typical Soundcloud page. My old Soundcloud page 
https://soundcloud.com/noistruct_mandark 

I can't access as the log in and email have long since been lost. You're more than welcome to add or follow it but I won't be on it again. Most of the tracks from there are linked here anyway. 

I have recently added as many of the artists I initially followed on the old Noistruct Soundcloud follow list. These are artists I still enjoy or in many cases are still in contact with. I'd recommend checking out any of them. 

I don't check this page that often and I very rarely check messages. If you want to contact email enderecordsofficial@proton.me
