Die Sektor was originally formed as a duo by Gant and Denman in 2002 and were quickly signed to leading German harsh-EBM label NoiTekk following the self-release of their 5-track demo "Scraping The Flesh" in 2004. The acclaimed debut album "To Be Fed Upon", mastered by Kolja Trelle (SOMAN), was released by NoiTekk in 2006 - and later by Russian label Gravitator in 2007. Subsequently Die Sektor have remixed several high-profile artists in the electro-industrial scene including Dawn Of Ashes, Grendel, and most recently Alien Vampires (DWA/Alfa Matrix), Cedigest (DWA/NoiTekk) and Detroit Diesel (DWA/Infacted), DYM (COP/NoiTekk/DWA), Distorted Memory (COP/NoiTekk) and Terrolokaust (DWA/Infacted). "Applied Structure In A Void" is the eagerly-anticipated follow-up: and the first material to feature the return of original member Daniel Gant and new member Edwin Alter, joining forces with core members Scott Denman and Alan Smith. Mastered by world-renowned sound engineer Brian "Big Bass" Gardner (Dr. Dre, KMFDM, Nine Inch Nails), "Applied Structure In A Void" is a diverse, powerful and accomplished piece that reflects the years of work spent crafting it. Retaining the epic song-structures familiar from "To Be Fed Upon", "Applied Structure In A Void" marks a new maturity in the development of Die Sektor's sound - placing less emphasis on distorted vocals and EBM beats in favour of more thoughtful (even experimental) arrangements that incorporate elements from a wide spectrum of musical genres. With "Applied Structure In A Void", as ever, Die Sektor continue to adhere to their declared aim of producing "powerful, emotional and innovative electronic music". "Applied Structure In A Void" is an outstanding new benchmark in dark electronica.
