The next release is especially for those of you who can enjoy proper breakbeat decimation. The “A Violent State Of Excited Delirium“ EP features four extremely well crafted tracks, each with their own twist. While some could be more described as dreamy and technical, others are full on slammers that do not mess around. Mathlovsky provides us here with an exceptional acoustic journey that offers variety in a time that gives a fuck about ingenuity. The whole EP is clearly worth a listen, especially since it is completely free (donations are welcome). The sound design is really something else, not […]

Even though he has been around for quite a while, especially recently Krytikas’s tracks and mixes had a lot of impact. The most recent recording from a party is no exception. This mix reminds me of some good old hardcore drum and bass parties. The sound and the tracklist are great, hard and in your face, but not too much for the dancing crowd to bear.

If you are into the oldschool Detest vibe, you cannot miss out on this one. The original tracks were already hitting the spot, but the new versions clearly increase the damage by a lot. Even though remakes or remixes sometimes lose their focus too much, this release keeps the quality high and pushes the old tracks to new heights. In case you’re wondering, yes there is also a volume one, but it only features a shorter version of “Motherfucker”. My Early Works Remixes Vol. 2 by Detest

Without any doubt, this EP is a tough nut to crack! Hypoxic & CRPTC provided an excellent piece of slow and moody hardcore for Dark.Descent. Due to harshness and tempo it’s honestly kinda chewy, but in the best way possible I would say. It really is great release with lots of variation that keeps everything interesting at all times. Struggle Within by Hypoxic & CRPTC

This compilation features a little bit of everything. From slow, creeping Doomcore up to high-paced Speedcore, you find basically everything hardcore has to offer. Thanks to the variety of this compilation on Extreme is Everything, there is a high likeliness that you will find something you can enjoy. It’s a well curated release that requires a little bit of your precious time, but it is sure worth the effort of going through the tracks.

This EP definitely also falls into the category of “wow I need that for my collection”. While you might be already familiar with most tracks on the EP, as they have been recently released on the recent The Silence album from 2023 (some only digitally though), the EP finally brings the missing tracks of said album to vinyl. Moreover, there is an about 2 minutes longer version of Something Hardcore on this EP, which alone is great. The only completely new track is industrial counter. A track that apparently makes fun of another weird trend in hardcore. Was it necessary? […]

The first appearance of Thrasher on Deathchant is actually pretty amazing. While it requires not only skills, a real DC release also needs flow and style. And actually, this EP has it all. The production quality is very good and totally fits the Deathchant cosmos. Apart from the very first track which solely relies on some questionable vocal sample choice (it’s really kinda lame in 2024 in my personal opinion), all tracks showcase all the ingredients of a good Deathchant release. Keep it Burning and 2024 Murder in particular can destroy any dancefloor within seconds. The Orbiter on the other […]

Sadly, there is not much information available on the Italian artists Society Will Fall. Despite the missing information, the music already gives us a hint at where this journey goes. Entangled in a heavily pessimistic world view, the EP explores dancefloor friendly industrial hardcore without being cheesy at all. On the contrary, this is hard as nails, but still easy to dance to. It’s rare that an EP manages to keep the roughness and the accessibility totally in balance. This is clearly an outstanding release that let us hope for more to come from these talented artists.   Progress In […]

Holy crap, this came rather unexpected. Rotterdam’s one and only Mike Redman aka Deformer released a remix EP of some of his tracks along with Prspct. On the EP some of hardcore’s true legends appeared such as Angerfist, the Outside Agency, Neophyte, Drokz, Tripped, Dolphin and N-Vitral (even though this remix sadly did not reach my eardrums very well). Seriously, this is the cream of the crop. It’s hard to pick a favorite at all, since all tracks deliver their own interpretations of already mind-blowing original Deformer tracks. Just check them one by one and you’ll understand the hype. In […]

Well, who says only guys can make rock solid industrial hardcore? I guess some dipshits do, but who cares about them anyway? In contrast, Sova clearly shows us with her first EP on Prspct that she has a vision, most producers cannot even dream of. She adds a whole new layer of musical ingredients to a – it’s sad to say – more and more boring core universe. Her debut EP with its super imaginative title “It’s Time/ Waves” offers, who could have guessed, two tracks. Both are just extreme from every angle. What’s most striking are her stellar producing […]

Undoubtedly this is maybe the least expected release we stumbled upon this year so far. Wile nobody knows exactly who Nite Lock is, we can certify that this release is completely nuts. Weird rhythms and strange atmospheres apparently go along very well with untamed kick drum assaults. The “Lock In” EP just features five unique tracks, all doing their own shit and minding nobody’s business. This release is made for people who don’t like their music super hard or fast, but want to witness the full weirdo experience of hard dance music regardless. Lock In by Nite Lock

Matt Green, or also known as Ordeal, constantly keeps pushing his own style like no other. With his latest LP on Motormouth he shows again that industrial hardcore is far away from being discontinued. The album features a broad variety of harsh industrial. The good shit, obviously. The industrial you barely find any longer nowadays! To be honest, there is not too much to say about the release. It hits hard and leaves not much room for discussion. Moreover, the release also features a live performance of the album, which offers a slightly different listening experience. Raw Deal by Ordeal, […]

This magnificent release by Ruby my Dear popped up on Bandcamp recently and is just incredible. While the French mastermind is already known for having an intimate relationship with breakbeats, this release adds some madness to the mix that has not been heard yet. The drumming is simply insane. Completely hectic and off the grids, but precise and always on point. But it’s not that alone that makes the EP stand out. The excessive acid overflows and the support of the moody melodics helps to slightly level out (or even amplify) the weirdness. All in all, the EP sounds just […]

Whenever you are in desperate need of some hard slamming amens, you know that you can always turn to Smyla. His latest promomix shows his extraordinary breakbeat programming skills and the variety of musical influences he draws from. Sure a mix worth tuning in! Varispeed · Smyla – Varispeed Promo Mix 2024
