Athens, Greece resident and Vanila records owner ANFS lands on Horo for an EP of jagged, industrial tinged Techno. Breakbeats are hacked and repurposed into brutal shards, with 'Kounoupi's amen march adding a slowed down, vicious take on the infamous roll. 'Salepsa' is a propulsive call to the floor, robust and emphatic, with 'Dervisis' and 'Komena' bookending the EP with rattling menace.

We present The Core of Chaos EP by Rezystor for the first TWB vinyl release. Two banging original tracks by Rezystor for the dancefloor which are the perfect combination to create a dark Atmosphere. Binny (Monnom Black/CLFT) takes over for the first remix and presents a raw, rave-influenced interpretation of Inner Core. The second remix of Inner Core comes from Rendered (Aufnahme+Wiedergabe/Body Theory) who converted the original into a bass heavy, pounding basement version.

To celebrate reaching our 20th release, we're launching a series of 6 compilation EPs named 'Eel Behaviour'. Starting with a bang through the haunting mechanical acid of Delta Funktionen's 'Alternate Reality', it's followed by uplifting broken techno from exciting new London-based talent Imogen. Autumns enters a more tense area with the slow and dense EBMflavoured 'Recovery' while a barrage of weird, vocal-infused beats from Bristol's Giant Swan, brings the record to a chaotic end on 'The Sun Inside Jaden Smith'.

The Auckland-based, New Zealand club night 'Haven' has been a leading light in the pacific nation's small underground dance music scene in the past year. From their home of the intimate backroom of basement venue Whammy, founders Keepsakes and Jaded Nineties Raver have introduced the local night fiends to a diverse range of left-of-centre, techno-centric dance music in putting on shows with international artists from lo-fi Australian electro wizard Daze, to the harder-edged sounds of Ansome and UVB.Now launching as a vinyl-focused record label, Haven is attempting to push the best of New Zealand's new guard of outsider dance music to the international stage.Their first release gives us three crunchy originals from their club resident and New Zealand techno-export Keepsakes. 'Mind Your Manners Munted Millennial' kicks off the A-side with scratchy percussion, overdriven kicks, and screaming, squelchy synths with a cheeky character distinctive of the young producer's music. 'Maximum Mind Control' then takes us on a different bent with a synth-line sitting somewhere between chilled dub techno and industrial grit that increases in intensity, surprising with a an unexpected end-of-track change. 'Pick 'em Till They Bleed' then begins the B-side with swung and dusty drums reminiscent of the A1 track alongside a loony, gnarled synth-line sure to disorient many a dance-floor. Hard techno genius Ansome rounds off the EP with a rolling, industrial-tinged and crushing interpretation of the B1 to finish Haven's first foray on the international stage.

Berlin-based Pascal Hetzel returns to Caduceus Records with a new slice of gritty industrial-tinged techno and finely tuned sound design. "Noxious Stimulus", the EP's title track, is a heavy peak-time filler with a mesmerizing bleepy modular sequence on top of rough monochrome beats. On her remix, rising talent Denise Rabe cranks up the paranoia and turns "Noxious Stimulus" into an unrelenting pitch black grinder. "Pain Tolerance Threshold" starts off as hefty with yet another dose of metallic atmospheres and crushing modular sequences, until a bright pad appears out of the dark. Proper techno goodness for the wee hours in your favorite warehouse.

A hiatus is always something needed to experience, silence is a process in which one can value and have a closer perspective within sound. An-Archon come to brake that silence, HERMES is on duties for it delivering two massive harsh noise weapons, Samuel Kerridge and Caos + Inmediatismo complete the EP on remixing labors. No one can escape from the An-Archon.

After some ground-breaking live shows and their 2016 debut release for ART - London Modular Alliance have gone from strength to strength to become one of the most in-demand and popular electronic acts. Their brash yet sophistictaed brain-melting tracks have been featured at clubs and festivals worldwide incl. London’s Planetarium, Reaktor - Amsterdam, Printworks - London, etc. LMA themselves have described ART20 as their favourite collection yet - and indeed the production skills on display are stunningly impressive. Space and dynamics are tough to master yet when it is handled correctly it leaves room for a heavyweight sonic assault as displayed here. From the creepy, sinister yet tongue-in-cheek vibes of Lavendah - to the lush Detroit/IDM style breakdowns of Peach Hat. Harnessed Black Holes is the perfect cruiser track - stately and majestic whilst the EP ends with the throbbing, strobe light-only style of title track Precious Materials. Another landmark release from these fine purveyors of Electronica. ART is proud to present ART20 early this summer 2019.

Berlin-based producer SDX drops an album entitled 'Nocturnal' on Sophia Saze's Dusk & Haze featuring remixes from TXTRL founders 138 and Shipwrec producer SC-164.



Georgia-born, Brooklyn-based Sophia Saze set up Dusk & Haze to release 'genre-free' experimental music, exhibited in the label's debut release entitled 'Solace' EP featuring four versatile cuts from Sophia herself and twisted electro and techno remixes from Umwelt and Benjamin Damage. The second release comes
from the enigmatic SDX, a masked artist who's fiercely championed left-of-centre dance music for decades. Crunchy drums and a thumping bassline kick things off in 'MS 04' before Los Angeles duo 138 provide an outstanding remix incorporating a cacophony of raw breaks. Modulated flutters, warped blips and white
noise create 'MS 08', leading into the organic drums and off-kilter arpeggios of '007' until New York's SC- 164 reworks '007' delivering a pulsating sub and distorted vocal chops.

WHO'S THIS FACE! After several strong and adventurous releases on Unknown Precept and Mannequin records, now it's time to land on Knekelhuis for the next chapter. TIP!

Flowing energies and social pressure, high expectations and pathetic fails, driving rhythms and cheerless inertia, so-called integration but effective exclusion; these are some of the opposite poles reeled out of the debut full-length delivery of Glass Knot (Lasse Bjørck Volkmann aka Metalized Man, and Nicolai Vesterkær Krog aka Misantrop) on Foul-Up. 'Present Tense', is a multi-level sonic object whose large-scale reach only equals the profoundness of the tale of love and hate it discreetly tells - in between the lines. Laying down a hot-blooded mixture of warped industrial rhythms, chopped-up breaks, off-kilter drones and hi-NRG anti- techno with a strong punk attitude, the seven tracks blaze their trail away from expectations and norms.
