erstmals auf vinyl erscheinen die drei key-alben des osloer produzenten helge sten aka deathprod, gründungsmitglied von supersilent, die zwischen 1994-2004 in cd-miniauflagen auf diversen indielabels veröffentlicht wurden und als klassiker des dark ambient gelten. alle drei wurden von rashad becker (dubplates & mastering, berlin) von den original-tapes in neuer top-qualität remastered und erscheinen jeweils auf 180g vinyl im schwarzen gatefold mit obi-strip.

uvb starts his own imprint presenting his new approach to his vision of techno.

for the debut of his newfound label ipso records, ko&#776,,,,lsch wanted to try something new. he has long been a fan of limiting himself in the studio. sometimes working with less equipment brings out the best in you, so for the first release i figured it would be interesting to experiment with this, ko&#776,,,,lsch says. inspired by the danish dogma films, he decided to make a rule, and as he is not one for overdoing things, the rule is very simple.

andré winter delivers his second exclusive ideal audio release – dogma. it is dark, it is hypnotic, it is what we call modern techno music. on the a-side you can find the original, which amazes with the number of sequences, which mr. winter twists and turns.beats and rhythms clash one after the other creating a mysterious and threatening, yet curious atmosphere. just close your eyes and enjoy the mood ride. the b-side offers pan-pots treatment of the track. the remix is massive, somewhat housier and brings exciting sound effects to the surface. great work

supernova is a platform designed to edit material timeless, original and devoid of any influence. supernova are totally against the music everywhere, made here by that, every idea is unique and unrepeatable. for us, the idea this above the sound. dont pay attention to fashion or trends. art to be art, not be conditioned, it must be pure and honest. have the opportunity to create our fancy, be free and original, that is art, that is supernova.

the black dog are a legendary live act whose ability to destroy venues and wreck soundsystems is undeniable. they blur the boundaries between djing and performance while possessing an excellent sense of where to take the crowd. live, they represent purist techno, which is also utterly crowd pleasing. on record, tbd are famous for delivering subtlety, emotion, and intellectual richness, as well as great tunes, but never in their career have they managed to convey the sheer visceral impact of their performances as on liber dogma. this album contrasts with last years extremely well-received ambient outings on music for real airports and the dadavistic orkestra collaboration with members of the psychick warriors of gaia. while none of the bands artistry and care has been lost, there is now a greater focus on a pure, and utterly exhilarating, vision of how techno can transform the dancefloor into a realm of complete pleasure.

after a couple of remixes made for the labels around 2002 losoul finally delivers his first single ep and we are very proud about it! those tracks feel like losoul really made one special for logistic! a sweet record greatly representing the music we have always loved to release. in between house and techno (losoul style… groove but freak!) this 2 tracks ep has a strong and particular energy perfectly designed for dance floors. a precise production work on both >dogma< and >calma< give cool sensation on large sound system. enjoy!

eomac is back in 2018 with a brand new album. after an intentionally quiet release schedule in 2017 to focus on developing a new label and presenting a monthly show on radar radio, he returns to the album format with the 11-track reconnect. it is his third studio album proper and the first on his burgeoning eotrax imprint. continuing where bedouin trax and temple of the jaguar left off, reconnect moves even further from the contemporary dancefloor and club environment and deep into uncharted territory. drawing influence from traditional irish music, haitian voodoo drumming, the raw old-school jungle of source direct and the abstract rhythms of autechre, eomac has crafted a dense, multi-layered and polyrhythmic exploration of percussion, texture and movement.

sunstrumental is a double single of two neck breakin, raw, dirty, mpc cuts. it s a nod to the boom-bap school but at the same time also breaks that dogma with fresh current details. instrumentals that many mcs would love to jump on but it s even better they didnt. sunstrumental is the first solo vinyl release by sunnysun, but expect this to be just the beginning of what is to yet to come. sunny is an all-round player: established as an mc (croatian freestyle vice-champion), he lately shifted his focus more on studio work and djing. he created the first mixtape of exclusively slovenian rap music selotejp, his beats underline the lyrics of numerous mcs and appear on compilations like stiropor, ctrl n and btf x rx:tx. all in all, an unorthodox whiz never afraid of gazing into different directions, never limiting himself to just one side of hip hop. truly one of the key players, linking the various clans, posses, crews and cliks. these are his beats.

younger rebinds is a new project and imaginary band by the inimitable and unstoppable benny rodrigues. maybe best-known for his rod moniker and releases on klockworks, rodrigues embodies and keeps the candour, spirit and curiosity that made techno music stand out in its start-up years - and that s exactly what we have here. the -retro 7 ep- makes the most of the classic 707 drum machine, gnarly synths, ambient soundscapes, pianos and organs. done in a way that is as much new wave, as it is electronic disco. spread out over a double-pack with eight tracks (8!, get it?), the younger rebinds hit the sweet spot between vintage dj hell aesthetics, sterac electronics and trevor jackson s metal dance dogma, if its choir would be muted. loud pressing and hypnotic artwork included. please don t look at it for more than 5 minutes.

infinite density – the new album by the berlin based, cuban-american artist blush response – is a fantastical exploration into the depths of industrial and ebm techno in collaboration with techno frontman adam x’s infamous imprint, sonic groove. influenced by the progressive noise of autechre, front line assembly and skinny puppy the producer has previously released with aufnahme +wiedergabe and ant-zen, as well as getting his hands dirty with programming work for the industrial pioneers fear factory, rhys fulber as well as latin pop singer cristian castro. infinite destiny takes a firm grip on situationally influenced content, pulling every corner of berlin into its belly for a challenging and unique sound – a sound that’s able to maintain functionality whilst simultaneously exposing loose wires of wild flangers and disturbed sampling. these erratic waves are expressed through the productions infinite density, aum shinrikyo, survivor guilt and dead still air, showcasing the most alien meta-bodies of blush’s sound. as an appropriation on contemporary acidic sound, the sonic motions of serpentine and tryptamine delve into explorations within the acid genre. rhys fulber’s string contribution on painkiller initiates a whirlwind rhetoric of distortion. panic stricken, no solace and tessellate focus on strong industrial pads that carry the density of each track whilst infinite dread’s ebm back bone hits hard with heavy arpeggiation. crucial to its form, the album showcases new experimental sound that repurposes algorithms of today’s dancefloor dogma. blush response exposes these paradigms through mutated build-ups and drops. however, his innovative “modular synth heavy” sound design obscures the flow in a way that permeates the concrete arenas his productions are designed for – in true berlin style.

the new ep by rroxymore signals another audacious step forward for one of the most daring artists in the electronic music diaspora. thoughts of an introvert part 1 is born out of introspection, out of the necessity to disconnect from the frenzy of crowds and to create a soundtrack to an inner landscape which exists beyond the reach of government and dogma. in the words of the artist, -it is a sonic diary of sorts, cataloguing the events of a world which has not yet been invented, in the form of three mesmerizing dance tracks free of nostalgia and the expectations of style.- the spatial afro futurist funk of prodrome finds rroxymore balancing darkness and optimism as only she can. the title track, thoughts of an introvert is instantly familiar and carries a soothing utopian spirit, so needed today. mycetozoa, the closing track is bouncing, drum driven and mad, a celebration of rroxymore s complex musical mind, offset by irresistibly banging toms and rolling rimshot patterns. it is a track which is at once melancholic, happy, vulnerable, and full of hope. everything seems possible on the dancefloor this music was written for

j.c. aka jose cabrera and kastil collaborate and come with the exciting results. a fresh blend of fierce techno, ambience, industrial, noise and found sounds recordings. a full length captivating album that pushes and pulls you through an edgy and engaging world of sound.

the cryovac machine operates independently to service the world with an original strain of techno. our people are pioneers of their own sound and seasoned veterans of its cause. this cause is the basis for our action and the motivation for our vinyl. cryovac believes the vinyl format is the truest way to take in our music, and this is why we take great care to personally craft our own plates and photograph our own art. the cryovac approach and stance make it a true oddity in a world of commodities, and we hope you realize, feel, and respect our work. andy vaz is a rebel from the city of cologne. he is a creator of techno labels that follow their own path and challenge the standard dogma. his version of the techno sound has gone from stark and funky minimalism to synth cascades and housey feels. andy vaz is the perfect choice to collaborate with andy garcia. garcia s brand crunchy soul tech mixed with vocal nonsense is the yin to vazs yang. these like minds share a name, a spirit, and a drive to keep moving forward no matter the cost.

pi.002 is a 12&#8243,,, heavyweight black vinyl lp written and produced by h&#8721,,,rm&#8721,,,s, first album of the artist and also on the label. work that assembles the soundscape from primal instinct forward into a harsh avant garde sound. almost human is the name of it, and consists in a 11 track album with a strong concept behind it. as the artist has baptism, -necronoise- aesthetics englobes dogma, metaphysics, poetic terrorism and theology as a manifesto regarding the learning of dying as a purification in life.

the idea of purity is always recurring when talking about techno. although purism has long been relegated to a mere excuse for fear, when understood not as vindication of a certain dogma, but as a way of approaching creative expression, purity is, as a matter of a fact, inseparable from the genre. after all, techno is something like the pursuit of transcendence - either visceral, cerebral or spiritual - through the strictly necessary means only. the search of the truest forms by just outlining them. all of this brings us to the story of uniformity , orbe s first release for hivern. the 12 comes wrapped in a screen printed sleeve with design by arnau pi.

eric cloutier launched palinoia last year with a single of his own, but now he s turned to berlin mainstays exercise one to lay down some of their trademark psychoactive machine music for the second installment. heptagon sports metallic synth notes clanging out over a freight train of techno drums, while prism takes a more nimble approach to twist out its various synthetic squeaks. nitrogen is a warmer proposition, placing the emphasis on chords and melodies while still aiming squarely at the dancefloor. thirty four finds the duo veering away from the 4/4 dogma to deliver a captivating kind of broken techno in a soundscape loaded with tension and ominous empty space.

vinyl only. the 4th release from nicolas lutz s my own jupiter. the mind bending album by digregorius from uruguay. again, one and only!!

mindblown music music presents its vinyl only spin off, mindblown wax. kicking off first with a versatile four track sampler that you must have in your record bag. including tracks from proudly people, joor then, cesar martinez, dky & p.e.t

the second release on modern cathedrals includes an original mix by altstadt echo supplemented with remixes crafted by donor, luigi tozzi, and asop. the inclusion of donor’s remix represents a continued effort to link together the detroit and brooklyn scenes, while the luigi tozzi remix connects modern cathedrals to the ghastly, dark styles of techno that italian artists have become so respected for. as a core member of the modern cathedrals team and a primary force behind the label’s event series, asop’s remix is the very first public release of work by this incredible new detroit-based artist. but while the artist names change from record to record, the philosophy does not. we continue in a desperate attempt to generate meaning during the short spasm of a lifetime we are given in a world that seems to conspire to prevent this effort’s realization. this situation might be inescapable, but through the rejection of complacency and dogma, we can approach our end with the bitter comfort that we were at least willing to be honest about our situation.

dogma is the new chapter of tensal to his label, 4 tracks passing the classic and contemporary techno with surround sound for the dancefloor, after his last works supported by djs like jeff mills, ben klock, rodhad, oscar mulero, dvs1, etc ... sure that it does not leave anyone indifferent. pressing on white coloured and marbled vinyl.

we are artists with an inward perspective that toil endlessly to perfect our technique. we have proven ourselves over time as leaders of a beat less traveled. in this time of followers and cheap hustlers we are the oddities outside mainstream dogma. we are the heroes of cryovac. the rat pack of cryovac are keith kemp, kero, a. garcia, and kimyon huggins. we are a detroit based collective that come together from our personal projects to share our broad view of what techno is. keith provides a driving minimal sickness that builds and fades with dark intent. while kero relies on a random modular approach that is corralled by 4/4 beating. a. garcia produces a rocker that is driven by dirty soulful tones and choppy vocals. kimyon takes us out with a computer rhythm that is mixed down with straight human soul. this vinyl represents a combined effort of artists and craftsmen working together to bring this idea to life.

groove covermount track! pan is excited to announce the release of objekts debut album, flatland. written between 2012 and 2014, flatland follows up a succession of dynamic single releases from his base in berlin, including the recent split 12inch with dopplereffekt on leisure system, cactus b/w porcupine on hessle audio and three 12inch singles on his eponymous white label series

it is luke warm making his world debut. it will make your vibes hurt. move your feet and your tribe more alert. dive and lie wrecked in the dirt, ruin your tee shirt… deep into the vibe of house… how will the sentence leak in luke? a sabotage crowns warm before the child. does warm exit? without his skull enters the distinguishing appendix. luke moves warm with the inferior sponsor. a dogma heaps the cry. into warm trips luke. warm tears under luke. warm fears inside a virgin. warm participates on top of the glove. an injury wins luke. why wont a biscuit exist? below luke rages warm. warm partitions a concerto. luke opposes warm. will the powder shift? the curry flashes near warm. below a travelled charm leaks the following optic… an atom covers a spokesman.

berliners dirk leyers and nomad expressed their hard earned musical freedom in a dogma: the use of a roland tr-808 analog drum machine in every single track. they programmed the machine to lay poly-rhythms over multicultural drum and percussion tracks, fascinated -and sometimes puzzled- by its own characteristically sudden swing and accent changes, and named it: africaine 808 - their third and first female band member. in the first year of their musical joint venture, the three spent quite some time in remixing and editing some of their favourite african and island funk tunes, transforming the old gold into modern dj and dancefloor friendly tunes. the sound of organic grooves mixed with 808-beats and analogue synthesizer basslines became soon a trademark sound, and more and more samples got replaced by live played guitar, bass, organ and percussion. the trio experimented with different tempos and styles ranging from slow cumbia and exotic rumba themes to island-funk and percussive disco, electro and house. in spring 2012 they first took the project to another level, turning their tracks into a full live act at one of the vulkandance nights in berlin. today the project is growing and integrating guest musicians, drummers, percussionists and vocalists - for live performances as well as for recording in the studio. 100% sonic voodoo golf channel every time!

the alias of welsh-born, california-based brian williams, lustmord first emerged as an associate of spk in the early 80s, before embarking on a solo career that has yielded such classics as heresy (1990), the place where the black stars hang (1994) and (with robert rich) stalker (1995). lustmord has also contributed to numerous hollywood films as music and sound designer, and collaborated with the likes of clock dva, chris & cosey, geir jenssen, the melvins, tool, aaron turner, monte cazazza and coils jhon balance. often seen to epitomize dark ambient, it would be more accurate to say that his work simply goes deeper, further, than conventional ambient dares, or is able, to go. half a decade in the making, the word as power is his new studio album and an exploration of ritual music without dogma.

the cryovac machine is maintained and operated by a. garcia. the components that make this machine function are the artists that push their creations forward to seal off their own vision of the now. what is preserved is the character of a craft that follows its own path. cryovac believes sound vibration released from vinyl has the proper disposition to express the true nature of the cryovac approach, and only selects the best vinyl when manufacturing and inspecting its product. the cryovac machines purpose is to keep an independent view of the detroit sound. jason garcia is an international d.j., producer, and house music aficionado. his production runs the gambit of genres with a knack for injecting his smooth character into each work. for this effort garcia has chosen to represent himself with a house style that is truly pimp heroic. jason garcia will forever have people in the detroit underground.

losoul is back on logistic with 2 long and strong dancefloor tracks! this ep follows the line of the acclaimed dogma & calma ep released in 2010. sawce on the a side has a jackin chicago feeling with powerful pads that goes on the entire track – an old school flavour that the early 90s techno fans might particularly enjoy. constellar on the b side is a beauty! a futuristic and sophisticated techno piece with slow minded groove. this track will take you to unknown places - a fantastic journey to be listened loud so get on board and enjoy the ride

this is the third of the black dogs liber series of releases that are purely aimed at the dance floor. it follows the previous, well received liber kult & liber temple 12s, these singles all lead to liber dogma, due on soma in october, and further chapters. high rise choir reprise opens with clattering percussion taken straight from recordings at forgemasters before a face-ripping gut-wrenching bassline cuts through with one of the black dogs strongest minimal grooves yet. built to move heads and feet, the hypnotic groove hooks you instantly while the haunting strings bring the emotion in massive dark waves, you cant help but fall into this track. beautifully simple, addictive and massive. dissident bleep is just that. over the years the myth that sheffield is all about bleep and bass has gathered ground but those who live here know its all about the bass. industrial repetition gives way to twisted vocal samples of >over, over<, a sure-fire nod to cabaret voltaire, before the kicks and filters pummel you.

andre winters first release on ideal audio - trauma - was an instant success and then he returned with his track helene on terence fixmers from jupiter label and dogma again on ideal. july of this year saw andré once again release on ideal audio, this time teaming up with hatzler on the heavily supported galloper, and today he returns with his brand new solo production, magma. as the summer fades, and our nights grow longer, magma and its flip drama, provide the perfect soundtrack for the coming winter months. played by dubfire, christian smith, marc romboy, stephan bodzin, mihalis safras, joseph capriati, carlo lio, pan-pot, joey beltram and many others

straight out of blade runner with basslines the size of george clintons afro and a sense of the epic rivalled only by the ancient greeks, vulture presents the new ep from palermo disko machine. following on from successful releases on kitsuné, pdms latest offering is 21st century dance music at its very best – a patchwork time-capsule of italo, disco and funk conjured up in a contemporary cauldron of cool. with blissed-out melodies served sweetly over bum-shaking bass, and a dose of the double-clap thrown in for good measure, palermo disko machine – as the name might well suggest – is at once exotic, at once groovy, yet all the while industriously effective in its dance-floor dogma
