Techno Vinyl New Releases - News

Magestic production from Ybrid. Fat dancefloor hardcore flavour.

The X Vinyl Series continues with label head Florian Meindl at the helm with the upcoming release Metaphysics. Synonymous with deep, dark techno, Florian does not disappoint with this 4 track EP, enlisting in demand producer and Rabe label boss Denise Rabe on remixing duties. Playing live with his Modular Synth set up, Florian began working on the concept for what would become these three original tracks while playing shows over the last month. The live jam character can clearly be felt in the first two tracks Metaphysics and Holomorphic Function. Florian's original Bell's Theorem has a deep melodic structure. With Denise Rabes interpretation, the track is contorted through some serious distortion pedals and broken beat to match her dark take on the synth line. The outcome is an impressive piece for one of those never ending nights in concrete walled rooms with oversized loudspeakers.

Following Gruth 's Limited Edition Cassette Release Laments I N Late July, Befallen Is A Sister Piece To His Debut Vinyl Ep Futile Demise , Released Earlier This Year On Tormenta Electrica . Taking His Dark And Experimental Signature Sound A Step Further, Befallen Mixes The Artist's More Recent Material, Written In Brazil, With A Selection Of Older Works Executed In Berlin.

'jurupari Despumation' Explores The Outskirts Of Halftime 160 Bpm Post-jungle, Blending Industrial Textures With Evil Reese Synths. The Closing Track Of A-side, 'hoarfrost', A Collaboration With Mord Records' Kamikaze Space Programme , Depicts A Frozen Landscape, With No Beats Or Traditional Sequencing Required. The B-side Of The Record Includes Works Completed With Gruth's Native-finnish Peers: 'exhumed Black' Is An Industrial Techno Journey With Helsinki Techno/ambient Artist Ikola , While 'befallen' Is A Haunting And Emotional Violin-piece Composed With The Mysterious Violinist And Sound Designer Kujo .

This is the 3rd release on RIOT Radio Records, an independent techno label based in Scotland.Ingen is an Edinburgh based producer who's sound is one of harsh complex poly-rhythms and soundscapes that crosses over into the darker realms of techno. 

Over the years he's appeared on many respected labels and also works regularly on projects with some of the worlds techno elite.

For those lucky enough to see him battering out his stunning live sets, playing alongside such lumineries as Surgeon, Whitehouse and The Advent, these humbled few know exactly what extremes Ingen is capable of reaching to crush your senses into submission.

On this release, along with the original version of 'Haste Makes Waste', there are remixes of this beast of track by Lag, Martyn Hare, Paul Birken, Duellist and the RIOT remix (ingeneered by Taser), each one taking the original composition down a different track. 

The INGENeers have spoken.

Industrial techno masterpiece ! Ultra limited edition offering some deejay exclusives tunes... Superb sleeve ! Masterpiece under all aspects !

Second instalment of Mecanica Records compilation focused to obscure techno/EBM/electro. A selection of new and unreleased tracks by six projects from different latitudes. The opening track is a collaboration between Dmitry Distant (Latvia) and Gestalt (Russia) with a dark electro tune that works perfect as warm-up. Deep Pill (USA) offers a versatile technoid tune and Blac Kolor (Germany) closes the A side with a hard and hypnotic piece. Viktor Kalima (Finland) opens the B side with a body music attack, followed by Santiago (USA) with four minutes of pure psychosis and dementia, and Rendered, the duo formed by Daniel Myer (Germany) and Clément Perez (France), closes this sonic trip with a strong and massive cut that will leave you attached to a never ending loop in your head.

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).

This is the return of the collaborative project 'VOFA', by Sawf and ANFS, on Pi Electronics. The Athens based duo, that put out the label's debut release, deliver another 4-tracker of their signature sound for the 5th Pi record. PI05.1 is a bass line oriented composition of thrilling beauty, while PI05.2 and PI05.4 provide different takes on the main PI05 theme: one leaning closer to UK breaks' influences and the other closer to industrial, hard hitting broken beats. Pi05.3 offers a driving tool of distorted realities and tuning bass lines. All tracks showcase further focus on sound texture and dynamics' balance, providing a perfect blend of Sawf and ANFS in joint forces as VOFA.

D. Carbone's first album 'Carbone Master System' is a collection of powerful techno tracks incorporating elements of rawness, acidity, and melancholy at the focus of his intent. Bringing together the feeling and the passion that the Sega Master System brought to him in his youth. Time was lost mesmerized by technology and excitement for the quest of the unknown.

Wonder Boy opens up the 8-bit journey with a pulsating kick, the bass infuses against the horse-powered percussion. Tension builds with acidic sequences and dark atmospheres to set the scene of the forthcoming levels.

Sonic Is On Acid has the level of hyperactivity of our blue hedgehog friend, you can imagine him twirling round loop to loops collecting golden rings to the 303 and industrial techno rhythms.

Let Your Body Move to the acidic voodoo as Carbone's vocal chant, Don't let acid frighten your mind, stop thinking, let go! rattling with the brutality and corrosion of the drums.

Back To The Future takes you on a trip in the De Lorean traveling through time. Superpowered by Russian valve time capacitors for maximum distorted effect, it will be a rough ride with The Doc and Marty!

Eat That Shit M8RFuckers hell raising kicks, vocal and droning bells go in for the kill, while atmospheric tones take this beast into a different realm of complexity.

Marble Madness rolling around the spherical based platform, the drums and melodic elements float and play with gravity before crashing back to the ground for maximum implosion.

Master Of Darkness beware what is around you! distorted kick drums smash the dark forces, the Bloody King lives in 303 darkness of the occult enslaving the people of the night.

Astro Warrior space travel for the 8bit time traveler against an invading force of evil. As we bounce and struggle through the meteor storms we finally reach euphoria as arps and the space synth reaches
the mothership.

Forgotten Worlds After the destruction of Earth, the soldier enters the galactic battlefields to bring back our world against the demons. Astral pads project through the universe with melodic tones and energy filling time and space with beams of light protecting the land of the lost.


D. Carbone's love for technology and exploration in computer games is what transfers into his musical style today, 8-bit power, boldness and effect transcribed through the machines and the mind of the maker.
'Carbone Master System' is not only a concept but a realization of two worlds meeting to become one.

Falling Ethics starts a new Various Artists series: Falling Ethics Eleven, with an open approach ranging from Ambient experimental to proper techno adventures. First two volumes features music from Steve Bicknell, Reeko, P.E.A.R.L., SHXCXCHCXSH, Ex Continent and first new 65D Mavericks track released in five years.

- Various Artists - Limits Of Existence vol.2 - FEXELVN002 -

To continue the series, we provide an awesome line up again, made of well trained veterans like London based project 65D Mavericks, swedish duo SHXCXCHCXSH and Ex Continent.

65D Mavericks opens the second volume with The Divine Comedy. It's an out of this world exercise, with weird vocal samples, broken beats, acid lines and hard textures. Rave meets experimental meets the future. Sure you have not heard a lot of tracks like this.

Following SHXCXCHCXSH, going alien with their experiment ggg. Harsh audio treatment, robotic grooves and risk.

Last cut Del Blau Al Groc I Viceversa by Ex Continent mixes ambient and distorted grooves in different layers, exploring different sound moods all in one take.

A step ahead in trendiness and standards, futurism and risk as a goal.

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.

* To celebrate the second anniversary of Khemia Records we are pleased to welcome back In Aeternam Vale, the legendary French artist who inaugurated the imprint on a split Ep with Bronze Teeth in March 2016.

* This is the first single-artist Ep produced by the label, initiating a new series that will run parallel to the V/A editions.

* The tracks 'Dave' and 'Circles' form an elliptical conundrum composed of various references including Kubrick's alchemical allegory 2001 A Space Odyssey, (sampled in French) with it's existential narrative of a schizophrenic artificial intelligence lurking in the shadows. The Deus ex Machina wondering if mankind is still useful to machines, or perhaps even dangerous to them The infamous Seveso chemical disaster at the pharmaceutical laboratory ICMESA caused by human error, the glowing blood-red sphere of HAL 9000, the all-seeing eye of the sentient super-computer and the circular composition of the toxic compound 2,3,7,8 Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), released into the atmosphere at Seveso. With this cryptic feedback loop, Laurent Prot is suggesting that the new technologies we are developing now, for use in our near future could result in catastrophe when human control is lost to the self-learning of AI. The homicidal consequences of a machine take-over find visual form in the bleak, dystopian aesthetic of Evelyn Bencicova's cover artwork.

After his storming debut on Pinkman and Oliver Ho's Death & Leisure at the beginning of the year, Maenad Veyl returns with 'The Acceptance ov Not Knowing', six tracks hovering above techno, EBM, noise and power electronics. VEYL is the new label by Thomas Feriero (Maenad Veyl, Avatism, CW/A) and Alex Knoblauch (Vakant, Parachute)

Described by the label as a very personal release by the performance and sound artist Pan Daijing, inspired by Arthur Rimbaud's A Season In Hell. The title refers to objects viewed through a soft filter. Ritualistic, energetic, abrasive, and surrounded by your embrace."

The second part of the collection by Perc, Furfriend, Scalameriya, Blush Response, VSK, Kastil, Yaporigami & Oleka that showcases exclusive tracks in variety of techno styles compiled to form a perfect unit.

'Trumping The Body's lumpen collaboration with The Haxan Cloak and Dylan Carlson's slightly underwhelming sides with The Bug by a country mile. '
THE QUIETUS on 'Mirrors For Psychic Warfare'...

"Kelly and Parker deal in a form of debased, defeated industrial future-folk, a zoned-out space cluttered with crunching metallic debris. Some of the quieter moments skirt the dreaded dark ambient category - but that subgenre always seems to suggest hokey cyberdelic techno-sabbats or the Hellraiser sequel in which chief Cenobite Pinhead sashays around on a spaceship. By contrast Mirrors For Psychic Warfare seed concerns about depleted stocks of tinned food and the likelihood of typhoid.' - WIRE

Claustrophobic sudor that evokes all you held dear from Skinny Puppy, Foetus, Godflesh, Swans..It's been three rough years since Mirrors for Psychic Warfare sprang into existence with their startling self titled debut, but don't think for a second that the time was spent idle.

This unit (comprised of Neurosis' Scott Kelly and Producer Sanford Parker) constructed an even more unnerving and destructive record with 'I See What I Became,' I know, hard to believe.

Over the course of these eight bile-rich pieces a sonic abattoir is erected, exploited, and razed. Turbulence rises and churns giving way to rhythmic machinations, lights flicker, a grand mal/guignol seizure besets a frog-headed snitch, blood collects in a stainless steel gutter.

There's nothing fun here, nothing but the cold of an autopsy followed by the heat of a crematorium. A sliver of galvanized bone flies from a circular saw into the toothless maw of a streetwalking Kali Yuga. Good or bad, I'm not sure what we did to deserve this. Aesop Dekker July 9, 2018

There is a purpose behind ambient music: it is utility music. Brian Eno made that clear. If we go by Eno's definition, the music on T.RAUMSCHMIERE's new album is not ambient. Although - or in fact, because - each individual track on this album immediately and effortlessly generates atmospheres, it is impossible not to be drawn in. T.RAUMSCHMIERE sucks the listener into the perceptible endlessness of his pulsating sounds, even though the music does not actually expect anything from the listener. It is not demanding, it does not sound lofty or ethereal. It is in constant movement and evolution while sounding grounded at the same time. The tracks are not weightless; they have body.

2 Disorder Mind AKA TIEUM and Scratch. CLASSIC HARDCORE INDUS SOUND

Bloody good mental acid techno, texturized sounds and grinding beat bumbers... Traveling sounds for intelligent acid.

Awesome hardcore to industrial hardcore sampler on WISHCRAFT RECORDS! Headliner of this phat 12" is the A1 track DIRTY DANCE WHORES by DJ PARTYRAISER & SCRAPEFACE which is already featured on the new THUNDERDOME 2006 compilation and gets hammered by loads of top djs like TIEUM, PARTYRAISER, DARKCONTROLLER, LENNY DEE and many more!

Taking inspiration from industrial dub techno and global bass music, San Francisco's Only Now delivers his debut EP on French label POLAAR.

Berlin-based duo ONTHEGROUND which consists of Myztical and Diagenetic Origin, is about to release 'Role Of The Observer', their follow-up to last year s debut EP 'Touching Higher Ground'. This record is a snapshot of their creative development and hard work which took them at least a year to put together.

The A Side takes up where the last year's EP left off, establishing a template of industrial pummeling techno with a focus on irresistible, broken groove. A1 'The Power Of Prayer' is a powerful banger droning synths and dislocated samples build up the anticipation, before massive kicks drop and propel the tension onwards. A2 'Controlled By Faith' is similarly destructive on the dancefloor, a bundle of rasping, dirty rattles that drive on relentlessly in funky delirium.

The B Side delves into the darker, more elusive recesses of the duo's creativity. On B1 'Ancient Cycles', distorted rumbles morph over pattering, primordial percussive patterns. B2 'Role Of The Observer' ratchets out a heady mesh of fragmented, disorientating textures over frantic, propulsive beats.

Finally Repressed!

Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done,
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.

Heavyweight techno from Finland's finest.

Codex Empire debuts on SNTS' label Sacred Court

AUX4411 sees a debutant on vinyl as well as an old schooler brought together on a release with 4 trax each with wicked acid infused IDM. This one is again a 150 limited pressing but on clear vinyl.

* Rubedo Edition - The fourth and final edition of the Magnum Opus series features two striking new remixes of previously released tracks by Schwefelgelb and Blind Delon respectively.

* On the solar side Schwefelgelb's Fokus gets the caustic treatment trom SARIN, replete with off-kilter, catastrophic sonics and annihilating beats.

* On the lunar side HIV+ contributes an intense, menacing vocal line to the epic synthcore grind of Blind Delon's Fuzz

Pinkman delivers another sturdy record for the connoisseurs of discomforting electronics. The second 5 Years Of Tears release unifies 6 artists, each with their own interpretation of the labels ill-famed sound, embodied in vibrating basslines, metallic beats, and corrosive acid. Gear yourself up for yet more nerve-racking music and get accustomed to the obscurity of this series of releases, because the madness is all but finished.
