a malicious statement of intent from pact infernals altar label, mors omnibus i is an assemblage of amenable architects of dread summoned together to create a collection of ominous rhythmic rituals.

gaining traction, gaining speed, the primaeval ritual reaches its boiling point, melting the borders of mind and flesh: a turgid vortex of unstable potential, constantly mutating and morphing itself. unformed and unstructured morphogenetic flows of matter-energy-information, self-organizing processes constituting a veritable non-organic life: the body without organs, that glacial reality where the alluvions, sedimentations, coagulations, foldings, and recoilings that compose an organism occur, a motherly womb detonating hydrogen bombs in her prefrontal cervix, atomizing the doors of perception with sheer gargantuan sonic tremor.

(140 gram pressing) 2lp reissue from the original 1982 master tapes. original artwork with 8 inserts including liner notes by john olson and edward ka-spel.

happa kicks off the year with the third 12 on his pt5 imprint and the first of several releases planned for the mercurial leeds producer in 2017. lead track “bum trance” pitches futurist drexciya synth optimism against frantic metallic drum programming adding another level to happas increasingly diverse production armoury. intense punk techno monster hallunciations first appeared in 2015 on various mix tapes and radio shows and now appears in its full release to complete the 12inch

running a label with the ambition to push new and unique voices isn t always an easy task. while finding new artists is about as hard as finding a black t-shirt in berlin, most budding artists seem pressured to conform or mimic the already established, only to be heard. performing under the artist name bleie, oakland resident sarah bly is not one of them. originally hailing from seattle, she indeed works with the mortar of techno form, but uses different bricks altogether. it s a hard sound to articulate, at first, it s almost alienating to ears worn by years in dark clubs. its mercurial, yet still surprisingly club compatible nature makes it an aural tiger balm – it burns and soothes at once. this compositional depth is perhaps a result of bleie s background as a trained pianist and violinist, by which she transmutes the commonly associated tropes of the genre. bleie lets the elements rule over the form, giving the tracks a morphing and unpredictable feel. obviously we were instantly intrigued when stumbling across her music, and now extremely proud to present her vinyl debut certainty is only a feeling . four tracks of unique techno so brimfully suggestive that it s nearly peerless. we can t imagine this leaving anyone unaffected.

oscilla sound’s inaugural release from rising talent wilhelm features intricate rhythms fused with synthetic ambiance and idm tinged sound design in a combination of beatless and syncopated cuts.

downliners sekt zählen zu den bemerkenswertesten künstlern der brodelnden electronic-szene barcelonas. auf ihrem dritten longplayer -silent ascent- fesseln sie den hörer mit einer überzeugenden mixtur aus post-dubstep, berliner techno-dub und leftfield-hip hop. ihr deeper sound ist inspiriert von der wissenschaft von autechre, den geisterechos des basic channel-sublabels burial mix und dem shoegaze von my bloody valentine. zu ihren fans zählen solch gestandene kollegen wie mount kimbie, john talabot, kevin the bug martin oder mary anne hobbs. deshalb wundert es nicht, dass sie für die produktion von silent ascent die berliner produzentenlegende rashad becker gewinnen konnten, der maßgeblich am basic channel-sound beteiligt war.

four track spaced out ep

burly, uk-styled rave tackle from berlin’s phon.o for tectonic after spending the last few years exploring subsets of garage-techno on 50 weapons. clearly carving towards tectonic’s ruder ‘floor criteria, he plays out the dank, shadow-boxing 2-step drums and swooping subs of mercurial next to the aggier grime slap of u8 phunk for the berlin scallies, and yokes some splintered breaks into a submerged jungle-techno chassis with bell blender.

shcaa joins grow label with a record of eerie atmosphere and mercurial mood, completed by an extended denis kaznacheev remix.

ltd 2015 repress
hat-trick for dense & pika with three killer releases on their home label hotflush, all scored with a display of mercurial melodic flair

nous #4 is here and is possibly the most resoundingly mercurial release to come out of the fledging stable thus far, featuring 5 moody, tracky cuts by berlins enigmatic spoiled drama. the show stealer comes courtesy of nys patricia who takes the lead tracks disembodied vocal sample and proceeds to intertwine it around an at once sinister yet beatific piece of atmospheric po-mo techno.

since his debut in 2009, loops haunt has continued to confound and excite with an output as mercurial as it is rare. toying with jungle and hip hop on zenith and outright sound design on ark, the wilderness-bound beat alchemist uses his isolation to explore and even create his otherworldly sound palate. lurking behind immaculate drums are the windswept sounds of the desolate north and mechanized textures plucked from his father s own workshop. here we embark on loops most complete work to date. exits is designed to be listened to as one continuous track, opening with ambient mood and emotion, layering outboard synths and found-sounds on the title track and trap door. an unexpected calm beginning is shattered in the second act with the pounding rhythms and industrial heart beats of howl and iiva. exits is an insight into a uniquely unpredictable talent and rare chance to be immersed in his sound.

a white label release limited to 300 units worldwide, pictures music and ghostly international present three remixes of dauwds *heat division*. featuring re-interpretations from dfas tim goldsworthy, ostguts nick höppner and dauwd himself, this release sheds new light on dauwds sophomore ep. goldsworthys experience producing the likes of unkle and the rapture is put to work on his remix of *heat divsion* adding a mercurial vocal hook and a unique ending to the track, while höppners work roots *and* firmly in the ubiquitous sound of berlin. dauwd rounds off the line-up with a different take on *silverse*, offering a version aimed squarely at the dancefloor.

nang powerhouse sare havlicek bursts back into the synth-scape once more with the first track from his second nang album. sare is a firm favourite here in nang towers and the mercurial, slovenian dynamo has hardly stopped for breath since his last releases on nang (a well deserved new masters comp, a co-mix credit on beach disco and also as part of the transatlantic disco alliance ep). to remix vibe on you nang have called in the talents of fellow adriatic funkster ilija rudman, who places his seal-of-authority on the sonics and gets brassed up. uk based head of bear funk stevie kotey pairs up with this lightning-fingered-keyboard neighbour manestar to create a cool cross between haddaway & ten city. sare contributes an instrumental and a slowed down, pitch-bent, 115 bpm version. his slyly retiled nothing you can do version jumps forward 4 years to 1985, sounding like a long lost stock-aitken and waterman extended 12 dance cut. stay tuned for sare album number 2 later in the year. weve heard it.. its a goodie.
