Tribute Mix To Anticore Records

Anticore Records is a legendary label from France that helped shaping the (Experimental) Hardcore sound, not only regarding the French scene. Is it notable for having early releases by Mouse and No Name (under the moniker "Erase Head") - and arguably some of their best ones - that became sought after collector items, and deservingly so. Two other masterminds of Hardcore can be found here, too: Taciturne in one his disguises, and Armaguet Nad himself. The roster of artists is completed by Maniak, who is also, as far as I know, the one who ran the label, Joel Giraldou, and Metronome (of Fischkopf fame).

This is really groundbreaking stuff here, very deep, very complex compositions, that are much more sophisticated than your usual "Gabber/Speedcore" sound, really right at the beginning of the whole Experimental Hardcore thing.

So if this is what you're looking for - try this mix!

The Slowcore Compilation

What the heck is Slowcore?

When Techno and Hardcore gained traction in the 90s, there was the tendency for the sound to get more heavy and dirty on the one side, and more frantic and speedy on the other side; tracks at 160 BPM, 180 BPM, soon at over 200+ BPM came popping out; until eventually genres such as Terror and Speedcore arose and you had tracks clocking at 800 bpm in 1998. And, after the millenium, genres such as Splittercore and Extratone became popular that took the speed to even more insane levels.

But after a while, an evolution towards the opposite direction took place, too; starting in genres such as Industrial Hardcore and Doomcore, some artists began to produce slower and slower tracks; this soon gave birth to the phenomenon known as "Slowcore". Tracks below 100 BPM, or 80 BPM, or 60 BPM, or even at 1 bpm (and slower?). Slowcore even has its own sub styles by now, such as Funeral Doomcore for very slow tracks, or Hadal Doomcore for even much, much slower tracks (think 1-16 BPM).

When exactly a track does enter the "Slowcore" realm is open to dispute. For this compilation we used the definiton: 125 BPM or slower (with one exception!).

So we called out for producers to turn in their Slowcore tracks for this compilation, and the response was awesome. We have something from all realms of slower Hardcore here, 120 BPM tracks, 60 BPM, 4 BPM... Industrial inspired sounds, Doomed sounds, slow Dancefloor stompers, Dark Ambient influences, Death Metal, odd experiments... everything you can wish for.

And, while listening to the tracks, we almost got the impression that there was a historic error in the development of Hardcore Techno: these slow tracks sound so natural and kicking, the slow drums underline the dark moods and atmospheres so perfect, maybe Hardcore had always been ment to be produced at half the speed, or even much less!

So... get a glimpse of the Slowcore movement, and check this compilation - if you dare!

State of Agony

Out now! A compilation for the revolution in Colombia!

"state of agony was born as a call for help before the world in order to communicate, manifest and show what for a long time has been engendering fear, hatred, death, panic and terror in the fields, sidewalks, municipalities and now in the main cities of the country.

Our fighting voice is raised through the counterculture, music, art and collective union to proclaim the indignation, the repudiation of the state and the armed forces that systematically repress, threaten the life and freedom of the people, shedding blood and violating the human rights.

For the above reasons and for more reasons we turn to the power of noise, hardcore, punk, metal, rap and music that protests against fascism and all kinds of government."

Theory Of Terror

Out now on Rotjecore Records! Six Hardcore / Speedcore tracks by me from the Blut / Widerstand era. 400-800 bpm. All done on MS-DOS Impulse Tracker.

Diese Mucke

Out now on Resilient Morbidity! A collab with Bazer - two tracks by him, and two remixes by me. For this release, I tried to do a style I call "Doomed Industrial": a mix between Industrial Hardcore and Doomcore, with a focus on heavy kickdrums. Check it out!

Chaos Out Of Order

Out now on Viral Conspiracy Records! My most brutal Doomcore and Industrial Hardcore album! 11 tracks, 60+ minutes!

Tribute Mix To Gangstar Toons Industry

Gangstar Toons Industy is a legendary Hardcore label from France that started in the mid 90s. They were true pioneers and set the groundwork for now well-accepted methods in Hardcore tracks, such as fusing Extreme Metal guitars with Rap samples and heavy kickdrums. As well as pushing the BPMs faster and faster.

In this, and other ways, GTI was very influential for genres like Speedcore, Terror, Breakcore, and, of course, French Hardcore. But, even more than this, the tracks usually were so extraordinarily clever in their ideas and structures.

So, lean back, turn on this mix, and get blasted by the sheer extremism of this sound.

Tracklisting:

01. Yazoo
02. Eraze
03. Rock'n'Roll
04. Dark Warrior
05. Paris N-Y

21 Years In The Matrix

This is a compilation of tracks I did related to the Matrix movie, taken from various releases in the last 18 years, and also some rare and unreleased ones. Style ranges from Breakcore to Acidcore and Speedcore. If you liked my "older" style of doing music (on labels like Blut / Praxis / Widerstand), it might be worth checking out.
The Matrix was a movie that shook the world upon its release, inspired many people and musicians, and I always revisited it time after time in tracks I did.

I liked the various philosophical connections this movie allowed, and it just resonated with me.
