joel grind (sole member of toxic holocaust) takes time out from delivering bone crunching extreme metal and has hot-wired a battery of analog synths for his debut release on death waltz originals.
alongside pentagram home video and slasher film festival strategy, this record represents the very best of the new wave of synth artists inspired by a love for cheap horror films of the 80’s and their unique synth soundtracks. the record pulses with chugging aggressive keyboards and layers of sound helping create a fully immersive listening experience that, although based in the past, has its sights very firmly set in the future.

death on the balcony s ‘tides of fortune has been the subject of relentless -track id- requests pleading us to reveal the name of the artist and track since be-at-tv streamed the bpm performance of lee burridge and matthew dekay back in 2015. joined on the ep by three other tracks there s a cohesive feel to the two friends vibe. mysterious melodies drift in and out of the hypnotic grooves on rivers of sound that could have soundtracked a star trek episode from the original series. 1700 miles is delicate and deep with a simple infectious vocal sample. don t be deceived though. when played on a club system the kick drum and bassline draw you in while the atmospheric elements send the listener to otherworldly places. we feel rather privileged as this track is mark’s first solo outing from dotb under his new moniker “caramelli” and dotbs first full length on all day i dream. mark’s back in the band for memories of the future which completes the release with its funky bass and trippy ambience. close your eyes and be transported.

the first release by parisian iconoclast joakim for his friends and european colleagues at dj tennis life and death records is a miniature nocturne for dance floor meditation, a cascade of unfurling fizzy moods and introspection, finally tuned and expertly rendered by the electronic music maestro. -i met manfredi (tennis) through luke jenner (ex the rapture) in nyc. when manfredi has a few days off his busy touring schedule, he comes to my studio to work with luke on their collaboration project. we usually talk about synths, food, dj gossip and complain about espressos in nyc. about 6 months ago we were eating korean fried chicken and manfredi asked me if i’d like to do something for his label life & death. at the time i had a bunch of club tunes i started working on and somehow had a feeling some of them could be a fit for life & death so i played those and manfredi very quickly picked one, daemon. i thought putting out something on life & death was at the same time kind of odd (and if you didnt notice yet, i like when things are unexpected) and totally appropriat

temperature s rising, the very first collaboration between perc and passarella death squad,came out quietly in 2010 and has since grown steadily into a cult favourite.now it returns on perc trax, remastered for 2016, with the original vocal mix having a full side of vinyl to itself for the first time.on the b-side is the temperate dub,originally created back in 2009 but which until now has remained unreleased. dubbing out the original mix by reducing the vocal to a few echoing syllables it is a fresh take on an well loved favourite.released on transparent red vinyl

hot on the heels of “the reason”, released earlier in april, mimi music continues to impress with the death no more ep from label head komplexx. he teams up with former booker of extrema and present-day photographer peter van hal. the original version of “death no more” defies genre boundaries with ease. fusing old school progressive stylings, well placed percussion, an epic choral vocal with a catchy main hook and a rubbery bass line, komplexx has unleashed a summer anthem for the discerning dance-floor worldwide. the remix comes from well respected german artist marcus sur. a producer in his own right, signed to noir music, trapez, highgrade, four:twenty records and many more, sur created a darker more hypnotic journey focusing on the percussive aspects of the original. and komplexx’s v.i.p. mixx heads off into housey techno waters from the start. deeper, more percussive and driving, the v.i.p. mixx keeps the central melody intact while creating a darker feel. this has mass crossover appeal written all over it.

shaw cuts is happy to present its third release, which includes 4 tracks produced by farron under the title ‘death duel’. the story of this chapter is simple: the third master is respected as the unrivalled and undefeated swordmaster of the day. his strength and skill saw many opponents who sought to slay him and win his title. all failed. there was only one rival who might sever his crown. it is only a matter of time until the ultimate duel… ‘we don’t make no sense’ rings in combat with a dirty break-beat drum pattern combined with deep, melancholic pads, circling the scene before one of the masters makes the first attack. warmer in tone, ‘tangency’ is the first intermission, a lull in bloodshed and impending annihilation. short-lived… the b-side brings back battle mode with ‘centro’, a rough and rolling thunder with churning synth action and distorted drums. the duel ends with ’par 2’, its sharp percussions, goliath bass drum and spheric pads reverberate victory. an open breast and sword glazed red. fatal hemorrhage…

death in vegas kehrt mit -transmission- zurück ins rampenlicht, dem sechsten release des von richard fearless vor fast zwei jahrzehnten in leben gerufenen projekts. dieses album setzt den weg fort, den fearless mit satans circus und trans-love energies begonnen hat, und ist aus dem bedürfnis nach einem immer raueren, präziseren klang entstanden. verbunden über die liebe zu throbbing gristle und chris and cosey, hat sich fearless mit künstlerin und schriftstellerin sasha grey zusammengetan, deren texte in den klangkulissen aus viszeralem techno und beunruhigenden, diskordanten drones nachhallen, eingewoben in einen zustand traumähnlicher euphorie. sowohl aussenaufnahmen von dem konstanten gedröhn des flugverkehrs und dem unaufhörlichen lärm aus der stahlfabrik gegenüber den metal box studios von fearless, als auch die scheinbar aus einem roman von j.g. ballard stammende landschaft, in der diese gelegen sind, üben ihren einfluss auf das album aus, das licht im dunkel suchend.

death waltz recording company is proud to exhume another classic from the hammer horror stable in the shape of “dracula a.d. 1972”. bringing the legend of bram stoker s immortal creation into then-present day, the film pits the charismatic count up against the disco decade after being resurrected by a group of hippies performing black magic, with cristopher lee and peter cushing reprising their signature roles. composing this madness was mike vickers, former member of 60’s pop quiet manfred mann, who provided a suitably contemporary score that followed in the footsteps of jazz scores from that era.

panic! at the disco wurden 2004 in las vegas, nevada, gegründet. death of a bachelor ist das mittlerweile sechste album der band um mastermind brendon urie. der letzte longplayer too weird to live, too rare to die! stieg 2013 auf #2 der us billboard charts ein.
am 15.01.2016 brachten panic! at the disco ihr neues album »death of a bachelor« auf den markt und sorgten mächtig für wirbel in den usa. nun traten sie mit ihrer erste singleauskopplung »victorious« in namenhaften shows wie jimmy kimmel und good morning america auf und lieferten energiegeladene performances ab.
und genau so ist auch ihr sound. »victorious« ist frisch, voller power und wie von panic! at the disco nicht anders zu erwarten, mitreißend. die kraftvollen vocals werden perfekt durch die präzise gesetzten drums unterstützt und werden immer wieder durch synthie-sounds durchbrochen, die so klingen wie der song. siegreich und nach jeder menge spaß!

is the doctrine of the mind fully contained within the physical brain? or are there places that we can traverse, places between places, that exist outside of ourselves and the consensual reality we all seem to inhabit? close your eyes and just try it for a second. you may be surprised where you go… exploring this theme of journeying beyond our strict sense of self, label mates and friends tale of us and mind against have joined together once again to create a work that works, fittingly, well past the summation of it s parts. playing with tension and release and a restrained but expressive sonic palate that paints a picture without words, these accomplished artists from the life and death team bring us to a place that seems to surely exist. even if we might not be able to pinpoint exactly where that is

to coincide with the full remix album’s unveiling on cd, the exquisite reworkings of all i think about is death and why you feel so low by techno heavyweights radio slave and function respectively, have been singled out for release on vinyl. the former bears all the hypnotic hallmarks of a radio slave classic: incrementally menacing percussive lines woven with the heart wrenching vocal chants of the original over an epic 12 minutes. at once understated and emphatic, the tenor is deepened in the extreme on an ambient atmos version. berghain resident, function, on the other hand treats claustrophobias flagship why you feel so low with a delicate touch: he retains the buoyant hook of the original, underlying it with a thunderous, reverberating bassline, handclaps for days, and a beat tailor-made for only the biggest and brightest sound systems.

death drive is a peak-time electronic club track that features eddie peake, prem sahib and george henry longly (anal house meltdown) on both production and vocals, and co-produced by long time collaborator tim goalen, inspired by and invoking the heady dance floors of their anal house meltdown parties, the pounding excitement of long nights at berghain, the legendary berlin club, and intense but fleeting romantic trysts facilitated by clubs and parties. resident berghain dj and producer fiedel has created a remix that will also feature on the release.

constantly turning around itself, the winding melody of vertere turns outward and inward at the same time, bringing the listener on a journey outward while mirroring a simultaneous labyrinthine journey inward. like the word itself, vertere, with its roots in the latin word verto (which itself takes its roots in the earlier sanskrit word, vartayati) it signifies the very nature of change itself. it means both to turn and reflect inward and yet also move forward — a call to action for setting in motion new things. a paradox at first glance but also perhaps a surprisingly accurate description of the destructive and reconstructive nature of creation. an apt metaphor for this bright new collaboration between established life and death artists mind against and the new artist project of federico maccherone, aka somne. on remix duties, when you have an artist of the caliber of tobias freund, you don t need to ask for anything more and with his outstanding remix of vertere he very clearly shows why. this long time mainstay of the electronic music scene has managed to stay not just relevant but on the cutting edge longer than most with respected releases on some of the most seminal imprints to be putting out music in the world of underground dance music. with vertere he takes what s already top quality material and somehow manages to turn it inward and in his own unique way elevate it to another level entirely. with a relentless beat and a sonic force that is hard to describe with mere words the tobias. remix of vertere comes out of the gate like a runaway machine rapturously drunk on its own self awareness. it marches ever forward, full of fervor, and will surely be driving dance floors both large and small to the euphoric edge of the ecstatic state.

2014 repress !!
berlin based, italian born, alessandro and federico fognini are not just brothers in arms but actual brothers who have been growing up together their whole lives. which might help explain why these 2 recent arrivals on the scene have already established a sound much more mature than their years might suggest.

scuba death is ricardo donosos alter ego. with more of a focus on analog sound, percussion, sampling, and location recordings, there is an organic undercurrent on scuba death recordings that isnt as prevalent in his solo work.
