2025 marks 20 years of life for Tectonic Recordings and the label is very excited to kick things off with an amazing debut album from Denver USA producer, Sectra. Sectra's Through The Static encompasses emotional depth, sonic intensity and moments of sheer brilliance that transcend any single genre. With all the hallmarks of a truly great electronic album, it brings together Sectra's love for bass music alongside punk, drone and experimental electronica. Each perfectly crafted track takes listeners on a journey -- from melancholy moments like the opening track "Glitter In The Dark," through the wild and raw collaboration with Dis Fig on "Horrid & Dejected," to the techno-chug, 1000-mile stare of "Entry Point," featuring Trisicloplox; the one consistent thing is an incredible and delicate manipulation of sonic texture. The creative use of distortion, crunch and crackle is the static through which each track passes. There is a very special bonus on the CD; when the album finishes, you will hear the static and you can begin a search for a hidden EP. There are five exclusive tracks bedded into the CD that can be found amongst the static.

Introducing USA-based artist Jon Linskey, aka Sectra, to Tectonic. With a truly unique sound, Sectra's music sits among the crushing, claustrophobic weight of Shapednoise drone spaces, the percussive dexterity of a Detroit techno wizard and summoning the power of DMZ with sub bass sonics designed to hug your ankles. "A Demon In My View" runs at a dangerous 90bpm, a total night stalker of a beat riddled with menace and the deep stench of fear. You will be scared, but that's OK, you'll get through this. "Counter Culture" runs at 126bpm and projects you far out into distance space for a sci-fi adventure to a distant galaxy with a techno shaped rocket to propel us you there (well, there's a 4/4 kick in there at least.) Flip for "Ashes" where you get a hint of dubstep influence melded with mangling technology and more perfectly placed sounds. Lastly, "Bedlam" takes the pace down a few notches and you find ourselves hypnotized in a half-step, rocking gently, wrapped in a blanket, slowly shaking off the trauma.
