2. Redukt was established in 2006 as an experimental solo outlet for Glasgow, UK based musician I.M. Munro. Redukt’s output throughout 2006 and 2007 was influenced strongly by both early Industrial pioneers such as Throbbing Gristle, Nurse With Wound and Skinny Puppy, and Noise acts such as Lightning Bolt, Whitehouse and Wolf Eyes. Utilising loops and samples, Redukt created both deliberately claustrophobic harsh soundscapes and extremes of feedback-driven noise.

I.M. Munro disbanded Redukt in late 2007 and is now working on a new project initially titled Hibernation with his wife L.A. Munro.

In 2009 a collection of Redukt’s music was released as the album ‘Music With Repetitive Structures’. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
