There is no doubt that AI penetrates everything nowadays and music is no exception to that. But this of course can mean so much. AI as a tool offers many new interesting approaches to music creation. This can lead to many results, but in the end we are here for the weird shit. So that’s why you get weird shit. Martsman provides us with one excellent example to show you how far you can go already. For this release Martsman used Realtime Audio Variational autoEncoder (RAVE). Briefly explained, you feed music to RAVE and it learns from it. The program […]

Doomsday Conduit on Acroplane Records is the latest installment by the brothers Paul & John Healy better known as Somatic Responses. As usual they show great taste in heavily distorted soundscapes mixed with some of the strangest acid lines you’ve heard so far. And of course, not to forget their breakbeat-wizardry that really drives the tracks through several dimensions. The album is an insane trip with 10 equally enjoyable chapters which all sound very inviting – and always different. Some of these chapters are darker and rougher than others, but in general the overall theme appears to be very glitchy […]

Well, the waiting is finally over! Even though the world is shattered to pieces, there are some things that help you deal with all the bullshit. And this album is definitely one of the silver linings on the horizon. After a slight delay, the Silence present their first full-length album. Words like mind-blowing couldn’t even describe what the album achieved. This is hardcore at it’s peak. It has everything, features old and new, and manages to be innovative at all points. The sound design is just brilliant. Distortion never sounded any better. This clarity and production value is outstanding. Apart […]

After his first album “Unboxed” on PRSPCT last year, Tripped came up with another full length release just recently. Even though the first release was very impressive, the second one lifts this bouncy in-your-face Hardcore style that Tripped is famous for on a new level. It’s great to see that his style develops continuously, but you can still recognize his signature sound. The album features 10 tracks, including a pretty noisy intro with a savory kick drum filter extravaganza. As this sets the tone for the rest of the album, the tracks on it cover a bright palette and include […]

Technically speaking this is not a new release. Instead, it’s a rerelease of an absolute classic EP by none other than the Outside Agency. After nearly 2 decades these tracks finally see the light of day again. I personally waited for a proper digital download forever – basically since the day I discovered the release. Originally it was released on Hong Kong Violence in 2007, and has been unmatched ever since. The sound design with it’s Kung-Fu samples is just bonkers. The release sounds still super fresh and even in 2023 there is nobody who could compete with TOA in […]

Only few releases have the class to cast a spell over you. But luckily, there exist some breathtaking exceptions. Even though the name G.xist didn’t ring a bell or anything so far, the artist managed to produce an atmospheric trip into the unknown. With six utterly different tracks, G.xist pushed the boundaries of sonic exploration. The rhythms do not sound too alien, but still run differently than most electronic music. It therefore also questions your listening habits. But again, it’s not too far away, from what you maybe already appreciate. It’s absolutely worth checking out, especially on a rainy afternoon. […]

The first album by „Noneless” from Australia dives into unexplored musical depths. It’s a very interesting piece that shows ingenuity and curiosity in sound design that’s often lacking in nowadays productions. But not here. Definitely not! With “A vow of Silence” you get everything but not silence. Instead, the album features tons of influences from other genres, mixed with partially ethnic sounding vocal samples, garnished with hectic percussions. The textures are rich and range from abstract atmospheres to very harsh noisescapes. Some tracks stick out due to their ear pleasing qualities, others because they attack your eardrums and show no […]

After 15 Years in the Business, Suck Puck Records celebrates its very own existence with the already 9th installment of the Fuk the Borders series. As you may expect already, the Compilation features everything relentless breakbeat music has to offer. It has a little bit of everything. Literally everything… The compilation offers more or less classic Jungle vibes, as well as super happy breaks, bouncy beats, but also grim and glitchy pieces that don’t fit any formula at all. For 7 Bucks it’s a steal, so consider buying that stuff! It also comes with great artwork which is available as […]

The most recent release by Bong-Ra represents a beautiful take on dark Jungle. The breaks are super solid and well programmed, the synths sound grim and fierce, and the overall sound design brings happiness to our dark hearts. This is not an “in-your-face” release, it’s even a bit reserved. A thoughtful approach to discover the essence of true dark Jungle Breaks. Vaseline by Bong-Ra

The latest Laxenanchaos release “Singing Breakbeats Timeless Travel With You” is a nice and short EP which can be described as an outer space breakcore EP maybe. The EP delivers a little bit of everything from very hard, to bouncy and even dreamy. Singing Breakbeats Timeless Travel With You by Laxenanchaos

It’s rare that you come across some music and think: “Wow, that’s really something else!” of course “Sustained Resistance” by Maelstrom & Louisahhh is not entirely new music, but the way this duo combines different strains of music and weaves them together into a seminal piece of art (well, it’d dare to call it that way) is simply amazing. The tracks themselves are emotionally charged amalgamations of hard electronic music. You find traces of so many different genres here – luckily, only the good ones. No seriously, it’s absolutely worth listening, especially for those of you who are looking for […]

Neurocore always had his signature sound that cannot be compared to anything else in in the Hardcore world. This wonderful exception to the rule features sonically diverse and mesmerizing sounds that will drag you away from what your everyday experiences might have to offer. The tracks are produced with great attention to detail. It’s very outer spacey, deep and thoughtful. Sometimes slow, sometimes fast, but all the time very convincing. At times it feels like a movie soundtrack with its sensitive soundscapes. A very beautiful release that stands alone in the universe with music that meanders from super silky sounds […]

Sadly, it remains unclear who produced this album. But it doesn’t matter that much. It’s all about the bass and the breaks here. Since there’s not much Drum and Basss featured on this blog, it’s great to find an album overstuffed with excellently crafted dnb slammers. The soundspheres are menacing and the bass is as low as possible. The drum breaks are also from another planet. They are hitting hard but are also sound super clean and present at the same time. The album features 12 slamming tracks and all of them are worth a listen! COVERT:TWO by Tech Itch […]

The latest album by Void settler “Bell, Book & Candle” came out recently on the Third Movement and is definitely one of a kind. The album feasts on so many musical traditions, but breaks and rearranges them all the time. Obviously, you find traces of hardcore and tons of distortion everywhere. But apart from that, the record also features gothic soundscapes, orchestral elements and choirs from hell. The musical structures of the tracks do not follow any conventional formula. And this is what makes the album really stand out. It’s demanding, it’s really questioning your listening habits. But it always […]

The new or more precisely first album by 10 CLS has been around for quite some time already, but there are tons of reasons to shine light on this outstanding release. The mastermind behind 10 CLS is also known to the broader public as Ophidian. And this alone should ring a bell. He is one of the most impressive electronic producers of all time and moreover always interested in creating more and more projects, diving deep and deeper into musical realms that take you farther and farther away from your genre specific comfort zone. But enough about the artist, what […]

As you may already can tell from the name of the release, Ars Dada & Dr. Roman bring Ragga Jungle to its extremes. This release on Murder Channel features 4 vocal-heavy Ragga Jungle blends that fit every set. In addition, you can get the release for free or have to pay at least 140 Yen (around 1€) to add it to your bandcamp account. Freshly Baked Raggamuffins by Ars Dada & Dr. Roman

Let’s pretend mutilated breakbeats are absolutely your thing. You also dig heavy basslines? Then this release is just made for you. Zkulptortrax & DJ Torturhythm really bring some fresh vibes to PRSPCT with this beast of a release. Don’t sleep on it before all the wav files are sold out! WE ARE ALIVE by ZKULPTORTRAX & DJ TORTURHYTHM

For our 200th post we have something very special for you. Lot’s of people are crazy ingenious when it comes to mutilating breakbeats, distorting kickdrums and most importantly disturbing the peace. But even if there are many great producers out there, nobody does it like Deformer. This guy offers a whole universe of aesthetic, atheist aggression which remains unmatched. His album “See, Hear, Scream” is more than an “album”, it’s a best of and beyond. A showcase of Deformer’s musical endeavors which already have started in 1993. It’s unbelievable how much these productions stick out even when it comes to […]

It’s becoming increasingly rare that you listen to a release and think: Wow, that’s something else, but it still feels familiar. And I think this is what Slave to Society achieved here. The release sounds really fresh even though it heavily feasts on the sound of hard Drum and Bass, Jungle and Core abominations. It’s an innovative release that features not necessarily only dancefloor material, instead it offers cozy soundscapes you want to wrap around your body like a warm cover. Yeah, or whatever makes you feel comfortable. It feels unique, not just formulary as a lot of modern electronic […]

The most recent release from Marlen on Motormouth Recordz is just a neat, banging hardcore/hard techno release that is as uncompromising as it is rough. Of course, hard music gained a lot of momentum recently, but not much overcomes the generic same wannabe hard mentality. This release is again an exception to the rule. Marlen only released on Motormouth Recordz as far as I found out and all the releases sound very good. I did not hear much from this producer yet, but to me personally the sound sticks out from the average “just make it hard and pretend it’s […]

Are you aware of AUDIOTIST’s alias DEIDREAM? Yeah? Ok! But do you know who the fuck is GHOST SHIP? Nah? You’re lucky, help comes your way. After some research we could find out that GHOST SHIP actually is a joint venture between DEIDREAM and XÄCKSECKS. So this means: AUDIOTIST = DEIDREAM and DEIDREAM + XÄCKSECKS = GHOST SHOP. We hope you enjoyed the little math lesson. But back to music. This short release features some 8-Bit chiptune chaos with unique vocals and some chopped up breaks every now and then. And it’s freeeeeeeeeeee! GHOST SHOP vs DEIDREAM by Suck Puck […]

Ever heard of Sieben Stein? Well maybe you’re from Germany or a German speaking country and remember that children’s TV show with the crow, but this guy here actually is Matt Green and not a puppet. The Name should ring a bell as well as his record label Corrupt. This new Bitter 9 release on Motormouth Recordz follows a pretty raw and oldschoolish approach. And it works. No question about that. I also like the nonsense titles – or fake German compound word stuff, you know what I mean. Bitter 9 by Matt Green as Sieben Stein Btw. there’s also […]

This album by Zenith is not only one of the most remarkable in the Industrial Strength catalogue. It is without any doubt an absolut outstanding and rare piece of art. The album was originally released in 1999, however some featured tracks already appeared on an EP on ISR in 1996. And now we finally see a rerelease on the Industrial Strength bandcamp page (Actually, the album was previously also available from other stores, but we simply prefer bandcamp). All the tracks show how futuristic hardcore can be. Maybe it’s not the hardest release you’ve ever heard, but Zenith shows how […]

Here’s another remaster that’s definitely worth sharing. Originally it was produced by the French producer Mouse and released in 1998. The oldschool sound and feel is amazing + it sounds better than ever after the remastering. This is history straight blown through your eardrums! Karnage 01 [Remastered] by Mouse Btw. there’s also a vinyl version of the release which you can order here:

The Dutch produer the Relic – also known as Cubic Nomad – released just recently an amazing CD on dark.descent. You can get it on their bandcamp account for only 12.50€. Let’s face it, this is as Industrial as it can be. But this means also most of the stuff is relatively slow. If you’re into that, we have no doubt that you will dig it a lot. We do! Bunker III by The Relic

Since you’re all familiar with the Polish producer I:Gor, he needs no further introduction, I guess. So anyhow, this guy remastered some of his older releases and they sound ace! You find some real Hardcore classics previously released on Labels such as Agnost1k Records, Strike Records or Clash Records. Also, some of these releases were vinyl only so far. There are 2 volumes available with 16 tracks each for just 11.50€ which is absolutely amazing for this amount of unique music. Btw. there’s also a recent release from Kielce Terror Squad. It can also be found on I:Gor’s bandcamp account, […]

The Dresden based Crew Bloody Feet released a few weeks ago a large Compilation with artists they have worked with so far. The tracks featured are mostly related to Jungle and Drum and Bass. However, there’s also a little bit of Hard- and Breakcore stuff on it. Also the Compilation ist for free so don’t hesitate to see what they have to offer. I bet they’d be also happy to see you sending them a few bucks. 1. Istari Lasterfahrer – Burn This 04:08 2. ashtar DXD – A Breath Of Death 02:58 3. Paluca – Man´s Rage 05:18 4. […]

Even though the title suggests a quite recent release, the record was already released in 2006 and has been now remastered. It’s finally available digitally and features Industrial Hardcore legends such as Ophidian or The Outside Agency. Of course on this compilation there are way more amazing artists and we can definitely recommend to check all the tracks on here. From pretty straight forward kick warfare to experimental soundscapes, you can get a full blast of artistic core music. The rereleased album can be bought for 9.50 € from the Meta4 bandcamp page. Global Pandemic by Meta4

We don’t want to go into detail, because it would simply take too long to write about all the amazing artists and tracks on this release. Better take some time on your own and listen through the tracklist and see what fitsyour taste. All jungle and amen fanatics will most probably enjoy this release a lot! 1. Antares – Messages 05:10 2. Jah Bliddie – Jah Jah 06:46 3. Zebedee – Red Earth 05:49 4. Abstract Drumz – Cyberpunk Dystopia ( Jesta Remix ) 05:57 5. Jack Rapture – Alien Sound 07:13 6. If-Read – Hostel ( Future Remix ) […]
