brooklyn based artist 51717 (shadowlust) now returns to the fold with her debut 8 track solo lp, paranoia star. lp comes with full color 22x28 poster and download card . tip!

(re-issue of the much longed for 2013 lp with alternate artwork). samo dj and max stenerudh have billed the record as a conceptual soundtrack set in kowloon’s walled city, an ex military fort in hong kong that became notorious for its dense population, triad connections and lack of governmental control. it was demolished in the mid 1990s, but has served as the influence for plenty of projects since, and should provide a suitably shadowy backdrop for kwc 92s fractured sounds.

comes with a huge 22x28 newprint poster in japanese sealed poly sleeve. chicago s beau wanzer returns to the label with his signature sound of crunched out bizarro electronics. tip! unmistakenly, wanzer has carved his own niche through the years as this ep rightly reflects the vast range of styles he works in. from the hypnotic head nod of wick hunny to the juicy back alley electro wave of the grim whim or the nasty metallic stomp of he spilled my drink we get wanzer in top freak form, mangling the drum machines and pushing the synths to the edge. a welcome return to say the least.

originally released as a limited run cassette on low jacks editons gravats label in 2017, we now get an official vinyl pressing via l.i.e.s. krikor kouchian serves this killer soundtrack to the documentary arabie saoudite: les liaisons dangerousness where the french tv program focuses on the saudi royal familys support of wahhabism and the wests appeasement of saudi foreign policy, kouchian underlines and accentuates the content with a brooding blend of mirage-like electronics and minimalist drum machine geometries. a deviation from his previous works and he moves into appropriately darker synth territory with this one.

desperate music for desperate times, collin strange returns to the label with a hard hitting ep of 90s style warehouse acid. this is remorseless, zero compromise, full fledged acid mayhem start to finish in the truest sense of the word, coming direct from the source. strange does what he does best pushing his 303, 101 and 909 to their limits with extreme intensity and abandon. if siege made electronic music this is what it would sound like. punk electronics for those who thrive on everyday chaos of the new world disorder. no trance to be found here.

rich oddie (orphx) and dave foster (huren/teste) return under their punk/industrial/scum electronics moniker o/h. these 5 tracks are an amalgamtion of dense, yet somehow stripped down heavy industrial punk electronic madness. open filter feedback drenched ms-20 and punishing 909 beats crash head-on throughout with foster s jello biafra-esce vocals through a meat-grinder stylings fight with a ranting homeless man as he raids your uncles s 80s porn vhs collection. controlled chaos written recorded and put to tape as modern society falls apart in front of our eyes. absolutely what the world needs right now (according to us).

krikor is back on the label with a new six tracker. following up his pacific alley lp from last year, we now get pacific alley in dub, taking tracks from the lp and re-working with ample echo and new riddims strictly made for the dancefloor. spacious pads and linn drum claps are run through the board as voices ping back and forth in the chamber, equally blissed out and trippy turning these tracks into completely new freaked out compositions. summer jams guaranateed. includes download card.

hailing from sao paulo, brasil now currently residing in the outskirts of europe, fernando may be better known for his more floor oriented releases as innsyter or seixlack. fans of ppu take note! crazy one. includes download code.

l.i.e.s. presents the first part of broken english club new album trilogy, white rats. following on from last years the english beach, white rats is described as, a collection of caustic and absurd portraits of the human animal. oliver ho continues to push his industrial influenced sound with metallic acid tracks, guitar noise/drone experiments and heavy synth wave once again with this nine track release. includes download card. the album sleeve features the disturbing and erotic photography of javier gallego escutia, which also comes as a poster with limited edition copies of the record. white rats part 2 and 3 will surface in 2019.

a longtime staple of the infamous hague scene, dj overdose returns to l.i.e.s. with what may be his heaviest release to date. razor sharp top notch production is the name of the game on this four tracker which sees overdose move from relentless broken beat electro on the a-side to the more wave influenced cuts on the b-side s, dark spectre echo and strompel. overdose proves once again he is and always has been one of the major forces in the electro world since the early-90s consistently refining his sound and pushing it to new territories. essential!

one half of the kwc 92 (who has previously delivered two top notch lps for l.i.e.s.), swedish producer max stenerudh aka maxxx bass steps forward with a 9 track solo effort titled gone fishing. right off the bat we hear stenerudh immersing himself in a world of chilled out and narrative fm electronic explorations that call to mind places past. the untitled tracks leave it to the listerner to create a story on their own, as voice pads, hand drums and dare we say pan flutes push and pull their way through the album creating dreamlike textures and otherwordly escapes. ideal music to fall into a late afternoon summer siesta to. lp comes come with full color 22cmx28cm color poster and download card

chicago s justin aulis long and ken zawacki return to l.i.e.s. with their second ep under their circling vultures moniker. on this offering we get four tracks of tough yet psychedelic machine music. from slow bpm beaters to metal on metal floor cuts, these are executed with precision to do maximum damage whenever played. sinking their teeth in and never letting go, looming over and waiting for the right moment to strike...tense music for the end times! another killer from these seasoned club vets.

person of interest returns to l.i.e.s. with a sleazy three tracker weaving in and out of the edges of house and techno. lines are blurred in only the best way as p.o.i. expands on the sounds of his last eps, refining his style with broken beats and darkside tribal leaning driving techno pressure. top shelf stuff from the brooklyn producer.

dj nozaki aka zzz aka dj cornbeef straight outta tokyo going in for the kill with some chicago style beat tracks think mdiii meets phuture or some old school rockin house cuts and you re on the right path. three tracks that will make the club-goers rise from their graves. limited one time pressing.

proper mixed bag this one soothing, grinding, banging, and disturbing! new york city by way of miami, alex suarez delivers his debut lp the eight track autogolpe for l.i.e.s. autogolpe, is a term for military coup initiated by a dictator to take control of an existing government and suarez uses this loose idea to create the sonic equivialent of the pain, strife, oppression, isolation, and joyous freedom associated with said act. musically he expands on his prior releases for bank and primitive languages as heavy industrialized sonic beatings sit next to somber passages, oil drum slow beat tribal clangers provide a back drop for screams shooting out of the dark. musically it paints a distorted picture of world in decline, an exile from another land and arrivial to anothers in chaos or the clinging hope of something better on the other side.

mick harris arrives on lies via his fret moniker. a man who needs no introduction via his exploits in napalm death and scorn among a slew of other projects, harris returns after his lp last year, bringing fret back to life once again. four tracks of absolutely crushing broken techno, dense blasting and unstoppable chaos that lays waste to all in sight. trancers and candy ravers step aside. an unmissable record from a true originator.

tel aviv based two man project tv.out has been making a name for themselves these last years putting on impressive live sets, djing around the world, and running their paralaxx imprint releasing various strains of rugged, well informed electronic music. . on their debut for l.i.e.s. we get a smoking three tracker spanning styles that would not seem out of the place being played on the west coast of den hague in the late-90s. think early legowelt meets coca disco meeting heavier techno sounds as a starting point. club gear for the gearheads.

after numerous eps through the years, we are pleased to announce the debut lp from one of the cornerstone s of the l.i.e.s. label, terekke. we asked the man himself for some words regarding his album as to do it justice best. suffice to say we couldn t be more pleased this is happening as it stands as a truly special record for all of us. download card included

florian is back on l.i.e.s. with another massive release. this one runs the gamut from the epic pwog styled opener contact, to industrialized beat track of random chaos to stepping broken techno on closing track z as we hear the artist further evolving and exploring his sound. by far his most diverse and mature release to date.

svengalisghost captured here in his most true form, the live setting. this recording comes direct from the board during his performance on french television in 2015 and harnesses the maniacal energy of his live set in perfect form. what may be the chicago born artist s darkest and most plodding recording to date, this is the definintion of deconstructed death-industrial, foward thinking and freeform yet totally focused and razor sharp, plodding drums over open wire electronics and zodiac killer vocals hitting you from all angles. this is sound of evil personified. limited copies available worldwide.

following up his self titled 12 inch earlier this year austin, texas based shane english continues in his path exploring the deep and bizarre edges of the american diy electronic world.
over these eight tracks we get english’s wide spanning take on the music touching upon elements of industrial on -invasion threat- darker ambient with opening track -sanctuary- and even hints of stinson on -bilocation drift-. english’s signature sparse and melancholic tone is present throughout again using minimal percussion and voice to glue it all together in a haunting fashion. another engaging listen direct from the depths of the american underbelly.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

randomer is back at once again for l.i.e.s. and again delivers the goods. taking the entire a-side is smoking, and it does exactly that as it s a full on club fueled rugged electro cut that does the job straight up and down. velvet opens the b-side on a different note building huge tension with its buried rave chords waiting just for the right moment for the drums to drop, a proper club beast if used at the right time. rye closes it out taking it in the other direction with tribal drums and voices in tow driving it home. massive!

techno veteran adam-x dons his admx-71 moniker with three tracks of subterranean, cyborb, body music influenced slow grinding techno. tense, textured, and ready to explode all three tracks explore the dark present and future we are heading towards, with track titles like nuclear hysterics and dire situation the music goes hand in hand with the modern day chaos unfolding daily. properly heavy and dense there is still air letting the tracks breathe and develop as they slowly boil over scorching everything in their path. heavy!

coling strange lands on lies.. going to hit hard, this one..tip! collin strange has a long and storied history in the new york city underground music scene of the nineties. from owning a record shop in the east village, to working at distributers, to playing in bands of all sorts, to producing music alone, strange was around at one of the most vibrant (and transitional) times in the l.e.s., just on the cusp of guliani s culture crackdown which choked the life out of the city, forcing many to leave. currently located in seattle, strange has picked up where he left off years ago plugging in the gear and churning out blistering acid cuts with a very d.i.y. edge that brings to mind drop bass network, unit moebius, or free party french acid of old. coming full circle these tracks are completely at home on l.i.e.s. and will undoubtedly thrash any soundsystem in sight. play at maximum volume for total disruption

american experimental musican shane english continues in a long tradition of outsider electronics as hes been humbly prolific in his output though the years involving himself in numerous recording projects.collaborating with jonah lange in their group corporate park as well as an ongoing collab with beau wanzer (seeing a release last year under the cp/bw name), english now commits his second full length solo offering to vinyl in the form of the general dimensions lp. sparse machine driven electronics dominate the recording providing a back drop for the occasional pulsating rhythm, metallic clank or floating obscured vocal. while it is a dark and sparse affair there is a quiet downtrodden beauty throughout giving the recording a sense of uncertain serenity in an almost shoegazey way. highly recommended for those into early electronics.

the argentinian based ngly had seemingly appeared out of thin air landing on the brooklyn based l.i.e.s. label in 2014 with an untitled four track white label ep. on this ep, the unsuspecting track -speechless tape- ended up becoming a cult hit with select djs in the scene (i-f, mick wills, intergalactic gary...) eventually leading to it being voted as intergalactic fm s #1 track of the year in 2014. on the heels of his successful debut rudolfo could have stayed the path and produced an easily digestable follow up dance record or two, instead he chose to take his time and reflect. sitting back in the studio tweaking his live act, recording endlessly, transforming and refining his sound.

insane hyper hybrid combo of wave/house/techno by murray cy of glasgow. the cy stands for -contort yourself- the label he runs which bridges the gaps between lost sounds of the past and contemprary noise makers, this ep displaying the producers take on the sound perfectly. all four tracks move in their own way from mid-tempo heaviness to more peak time fare. this is the rough back alley stuff you ve been warned about!
