inhabited shadows “ist das neue album des bahnbrechenden berliner technokünstlers headless horseman. dies ist seine bisher gewagteste und emotionalste veröffentlichung: der höhepunkt von live-performance, studioexperimenten und globaler erkundung.

they are loud, howl and roar, but at the same time they are sublime and elegant, they are the engines of an unforgettable era. an era in which techno has evolved and paired with steam and diesel powered machines. the result is a bass shaped, down-to-earth, rolling and seemingly never-ending sound that is reflected in menwood and his release. the extra fuel this time comes from headless horseman & tensal with their remixes. with the brst007 menwood s second bomb is released on _burst rec.

headless horseman with release #8 on his own label.

boris brenecki and darko kolar (aka katran) regroup as ontal for a horo ep that combines their instinctual brutality with a deeper probe into their penchant for experimentation. lead track ikari’s flickering storm unfurls a rhythmic rage that rolls over you like a turbo-charged synapse exciter. at its peak ikari feels as if it’s about to explode into shards of jagged, forged synthesis, but pulls itself back from the brink to reignite its hostile oscillation. r-amen bends the famous breakbeat over a concentrated twin-drop, peak-time 130bpm eruption, while vigilante is a punishing machine, built to instil palpable tension. in blinding form, headless horseman takes apart ikari and reconstructs it as a hyper half-step technoid stepper, complete with a guttural drop reminiscent of the more advanced strains of 170bpm music.

the four-tracker features dense techno with individual moods. “revelation” is a downbeat lurching machine-giant with repeat climaxes. “concussion” is broken and feverish, with sculpted layers of pressure. the momentum of “locust” drives on the edge of an untravelled path and cannot rest. the final track “gravity” is subtle and snarling, with a slowly ascending melody, scraping against future and past.

the dark knight of eerily appealing techno - headless horseman - is back with a vengeance. this time, he has chosen to recruit the elektron octatrack, analog rytm, overbridge and machinedrum uw in order to pursue his modern-day arcane craft. his three tracks on this, the latest elektron grammofon release, will have you dancing headless into the heady future.

ancient methods, and and headless horseman they start the new remixes series on raffaele attanasios own label, industrial shadows, fast brains, dont forgive and dont forget!

the headless horseman returns on tommy four seven’s ’47’ imprint. headless horseman made his first appearance on the 2016 various artist ep, 47006 with his contribution, ‘at the gates’, alongside artists phase fatale, stephanie sykes and tommy himself. now back with a 4 track ep, 47009 marks a new era for the label, presenting its first solo release.

great techno release with inigo kennedy rmx & headless horseman the past years have seen yacoub chakarji and irakli kiziria exploring vast range of different directions spanning from deeper tracks to more utilitarian music, but always with originality. this time the berlin duo return on the label fracture with a playfully mental cut that gets remix treatment from two of the most interesting techno artists in recent times. termination hits a striking balance between functionality and an almost deviant quality. in the hands of inigo kennedy it becomes splendid atmospheric techno, while headless horseman makes it more explosive and sinister for his first time on remix duty. music for the more daring selectors out there

a distant shadow of a woman with jet black stringy hair glistened through the nearby shrubbery. was it her, or was i again lost in my own dementia? how in the living world could this be? i sipped on my medicine and fell into a deep sleep. i awoke days later to see her sooty eyeballs rolling over my entire body. her black wings seemed to stretch over a mile wide. they ever so subtly fluttered from the slow wind that was creeping in from the north. i startled when i realized what was happening and sprung up from my chemically induced coma. i grabbed her by the neck as tight as i could, only to realize that i was holding a black birds tail feather in my hand.

the headless horseman has been suffering from severe dementia and is looking for sanctuary. after the grueling massacre that occurred on battle hill, he has set course back to his safe haven. this position that he refers to as the bridge of dismay is the only location where he can further reflect and collect the shattered pieces of his black soul before he rides again.

the headless horseman has a very vague memory of when his head was completely dislodged by a cannonball. is he the ghost of an honest hes- sian solider? or simply a mere immortal soul who wants back his prop- erty back and is destined to live in solitude?

the remains of the horsemans severed head are no where to be found so he has returned to sleepy hollow for vengeance. in >execution< you can hear his sword tear through the last human souls who were brave enough to step out side of their homes in the pitch black darkness. the headless horsemans >legend< has now been born in the neighboring villages but there was one survivor on his third attack. that was a gentleman named ancient methods, who showed his courage and strength so the horseman decided to let him live in return for his shield containing markings of times before his

on his third time out, the horseman has decided to take some time to himself and rethink all of the suffering that he has caused. after his never ending >midnight ride< he paused to take a break and fell deeply asleep. he awoke to the sounds of birds singing and the piercing sunlight in the early hours on the hilltop of >northfield lane<. he felt joyous for a split second. could this be the end of his misery?

if you look into the night sky you can see a shadow of the headless horseman and his steel. this time around he has taken perc prisoner in the graveyard. as we know, decapitation does not come without con- sequence. rumor has it that the horseman is continuing his journey throughout the land and will strike again so beware.

the headless horseman is coming after you with a freshly sharpened sword. he will take no prisoners. his true identity has never been revealed but his presence is felt through music. listen if you dare, but be aware that he will ride again, sooner than you know it.

metempsychosis vinyl 002 invites you to the sonic soundscapes of flaminia along with remixes by headless horseman and ancestral voices. an epic trip inspired by the sanskrit story of agni, the god of fire, originally narrated in ancient india. dark percussive sounds walk the listener through the fire’s curse to be the devourer of everything in this world, destroyer of everything it touches. ethereal drones and atavistic strings reveal the turning point of this adventure when the curse is reversed in such a way that agni - the fire - becomes the purifier of all the things it touches. this story, brought to life by sound, teaches that reality and matter itself are actually shaped by perception and can change according to interpretation. fire can be feared as a destroyer or admired as a purifier. fire, just like death, is a crucial element of life on earth. a different perception of the world can change your world. so abandon yourself and embrace the fire.

47015 is vsk s second solo ep on 47, after last year s debut 47011. it s the label s 7th solo release following headless horseman s 47014 earlier this year. the 12- vinyl and digital download drop on 20th april. multiverse wastes no time and states its intentions like a snarled warning of up-tempo complex drumming. the density and rush of first evidence continues the broken-beat dancefloor battery. eternal (chaotic) inflation visits the oceanic and half-time territories of dnb-paced jagged rhythm. and the final drive of occam s razor slows its drums to a stepping hallucination.
