Forbidden Society

I've been producing electronic music since 1998, when I started a project called Desert Storm Breakcore Squad with my friend JayB. We produced a quite unusual mixture of hardcore techno and jungle, because I had a hardcore/speedcore background and Jay was more into jungle.

Later on I bought my own PC and started making music by myself under the Noize Punishment moniker. I always liked grindcore, punk or metal and I guess this influence is traceable in my tracks. Among the biggest influences to me I would count Alec Empire and Atari Teenage Riot, Mathis Mootz (Panacea), Bombardier.
