Existing somewhere in that undefined region of sound known as industrial music, CENOTYPE is the personal expression of a single individual known as Leonard Bogatch. Also known as Lenny B or DJ Wintermute, Lenny is a long-standing member of the NYC/New Jersey-area industrial scene. Raised in the poisonous sprawl of depressed cities such as Bayonne and Jersey City, Lenny cut his teeth as a dancefloor DJ at several venues around the region, and was inspired by acts such as SPK, KLINIK, SKINNY PUPPY, DIVE, SYNAPSCAPE and PSYCHIC TV to create his own project.

Influenced by the first and second ‘power noise' waves of the mid-late 1990s, CENOTYPE now seeks to rise above the growing mass of imitators spawned by that movement to create an identity all its own, incorporating elements of death industrial and power electronics while staying true to his origins. This project centers around themes of morality, justice, sanity, depression and, at times, even redemption.
With the 2007 debut full length CD release, ORIGINS (HIVE RECORDS) receiving positive reactions all over the world, and performances alongside some of the industrial scene's most respected artists, CENOTYPE was established as a force to be reckoned with.
The recent addition of talented electronic musician Clive Reinhold means CENOTYPE is now evolving into a two-man project both live and in the studio, currently preparing to unleash a second full length album some time later in 2009.

In preparation for the next phase of his musical career, Lenny has formally unveiled his ORIGINS PRODUCTIONS imprint, and has produced the label's first official release in collaboration with Lee Bartow (AKA Leech) of NAVICON TORTURE TECHNOLOGIES.
