Adding to this combination a remix from Cardopusher we get a guaranteed dancefloor killer release! Artwork: Anton Elfilter Mastering: MA Spaventi Studio

LPost-Heretic Dracula X Chronicles is Nicola Kazimir's debut album. It features 30min full of diverse, rough, evil, melancholic electronic music compositions either partly sampled out of important melodies in his life or fully produced by him. Post-Heretic Dracula X Chronicles LP draws from contemporary and past cultural references evolving around institutional-critique, occultism and dividualism and manifests those via metatags or sonic compositions.

Nicola Kazimir is a part of the collective Les Points based in Zürich, Switzerland.
His art/music draws from 90's rave utopias, decentralized & dividual thought, institutional-critique, occultism, progressive & accessible frameworks as showcased at their offspace Mikro -
a physical room which has no doors and opening times during exhibitions and raves - making an institution available to all social layers.
His recordlabels "Les Points" and the newly founded "Gentrified Underground" appropriate those ideas and transfer them to the distribution channels of electronic music.
Nicola refuses genre-stigmas and explores a vast number of genres in his dj-sets and productions - his newest LP "Post-Heretic Dracula X Chronicles" being an example of that diversity.

We are happy to presend you some of the labels best releases back on vinyl! Starting with one of the most wanted produced by Roland Casper and Rob Acid from 1995! Re-mastered and highly recommended!

Massive Hard Techno, Acid and dancefloor.

Hard, acid, mechanistic techno

We are excited to present you our most recent four track EP and hope you enjoy the fruits of our hard labour. Thank you for listening!

Rising Australian DJ and producer Andy Garvey debuts on X-Kalay showcasing her take on deep and breaksy electro.

Title track and A1 “More Than Meets the Eye” is a thoughtful, finely crafted cut. Built around a weighty acid riff, stacked pads and a delicate twinkling melody, it’s as equally suited to the introspection of headphone listening as it is the club. Next up, “This Silence is False” darkens the mood and ups the tempo - the stepping rhythm and frantic breaks making it perfect material for those later floors.

On the B “Double Planetoid” has echoes of early Massive Attack; a superbly expansive track of swelling pads and undulating bass, it drifts in and out of focus underpinned by a chunky breakbeat and shimmering hi hats. Finally, closing things out is fellow Australian Tred’s rework of “This Silence is False”. He remixes Andy’s original into a 160 BPM techno monster, utilising the acid line perfectly and pumping it with pure 4x4 energy. Heat!

25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

In 1995 The Pump Panel (Tim Taylor and Dan Zamani) were commissioned by FFRR/London Records to Redux their choice of any New Order track. They selected the 1983 electro track “Confusion” and transformed it into a stunning 10 minute Acid Journey dominated by a distorted and unforgettable 303 Bassline. It was that Killer Acid Riff that has driven this unique story ever since.



Released on FFRR in 1995 “Confusion” (Pump Panel Re-construction Mix) was an instant club hit Worldwide and especially in the Los Angeles Party Scene. It was in LA in 1996 when Wesley Snipes witnessed the track played several times to huge responses and then licensed it personally to his upcoming Blade Movie.



In August 1998 Blade was released in cinemas and went to Number 1 on the US Box Office chart. The opening scene that featured over 4 minutes of “Confusion” propelling the vampire club blood sequence was described in the Los Angeles Times as “The coolest opening to a Movie ever”.



From that point onwards Blade and “Confusion” achieved Iconic status, it was unprecedented for a pumping acid track to be so heavily and famously used in a blockbuster movie.

The legend of “Confusion” and that frenzied opening scene has taken on a life of its own and the long deleted vinyl version is being re-mastered and re-released on Tim Taylor’s Missile Vintage label…This will coincide with the new 4K Ultra release of Blade The Movie in December 2020.

The raves at Same Bitches have not changed much since back in March 2014 at OHM, Berlin. Every second month on the first Saturday at noon sharp the residents Handmade, Ron Wilson, Derek Plaslaiko, VCO and Manuela Mayoral play each a three hour set and after everyone is through the Dj who warmed up goes into the next round continuing the running order with the usual ending in a full on back-to-back orgy. The occasional special guest never gets announced, it is mainly the same bitches in charge.

Inspired by the raw sound of Detroit Techno, the crew have quickly gained underground praise over the years for their liberal queer atmosphere and no compromise after-hour excessive "last raver standing" attitude. Running at least 24 hours up until even 36 hours the raves have no dull moments bringing everyone into euphoria and exhaustion. Hard bouncy house and groovy techno with a lot of acid drive the dancers through the day and night... and day.

After seven years it has come to the point of expanding the realm and the crew decided on releasing a record. The tracks of the first Same Bitches record featuring Handmade, VCO, Ron Wilson and Derek Plaslaiko represent their diverse yet homogenous sound of the parties and arrive just on time for their anniversary in March. Hopefully soon the party can continue and we can all enjoy the music and dance together again...

The great landing from the Djungel Fever ! Back they are !

"Let's Go" will take you back to love parade times. "Teleport" will send you to space, and "Galactic Tools" is a total acid trip celebration.

I am happy to welcome the Ukrainian shootingstar Spartaque on board of Terminal M!

He is showing his variety of production on 4 techno tracks - rolling acid to trippy mindtwisting techno! I love it! (Monika Kruse)

IM BORED OF ELECTRO! IM BORED OF MINIMAL!
The lyrics say it all, and we at SUF HQ couldnt agree more.
Its time, for hard music to REASSERT ITSELF, and for dancefloors to wean themselves off MOGADON MINIMAL TECHNO and CHEESY ELECTRO and start to EXERT SOME ENERGY AGAIN!!
Kickstart the revolution with this tongueincheek anthem from underground stalwarts Chris Liberator and Sterling Moss, with the Love Acid mix for the acid faithful, and a storming Love Techno mix for those who like it dark, hard and dirty.
A bit of fun, and a poke in the eye for the fashionistas, whose music has dominated the media for far too long. WERE BORED OF IT! LETS RECLAIM THE BEATS AND AVE IT AGAIN!!

A.P. and Rowland The Bastard provide 2 tough warehouse techno tracks each for the iconic Cluster label. A.P. gets slightly funky on City Fever but then pounds hard on You Are What You Are, whilst Rowland delivers sinister grooves on Barabas, and more straight ahead dynamic power on Overlab Sub Stab.

First run on silver marbled vinyl!

2020 was a year like no other. Thankfully, Shipwrec is slowly returning to normality. Not only is the label back to releasing form, but also the roster of artists is being expanded with the superb addition of Caron. Known for his releases on labels like 030303 and Brokntoys, Caron debuts on Shipwrec with a four tracker of sheer quality. Off-kilter percussion introduces the breathy pads and grandeur of "Ancestry," a piece of dreamy chords and acid undertones. The haunting "Common Sense" follows. Drums stagger next spectral vocals in this chilling electro piece. A similar stalking note continues on the flip with the 303 soaked "Lost." A steady kick offers a bedrock from which looming keys, bitter squawk and dancefloor paranoia take hold. Hopeful shades arrive with the brilliance of "Ruins." From industrial percussion and metallic rinses, a deep and intricate finale forms to bring "Shattered" to a terrific close.

A shared album from two acid mavericks. Listen in as they share all of their experience in brewing and consuming beverages (hic)...Review by Pietro @ Igloo Magazine "A double album from two acid mavericks Roy of the Ravers and Myoptik...85-minutes of acid-drenched braindance mayhem that is disjointedly playful.Myoptik's side of the platter stirs a myriad of distorted found sounds, vocodered samples, broken techno, and electro fragments into a proverbial sonic soup while Roy of the Ravers delves into early-era rave-infused acid techno and crackling breaks (as would be expected), only to balance each other out as a whole.Such a plethora of experimental and movement-based nostalgic electronics makes for an energy-packed collection that traverses a historical backdrop of early 90s warehouse raves.Listen in as these two musicians share all of their experience in brewing and consuming beverages, while somehow managing to record the results."

For its seventh release, Rave Or Die proudly welcomes Irish superstar Sunil Sharpe.

Half of the Tinfoil duo along with DeFekt offers to the French Rave label a great slab of bastard-heavy material in his typical signature: hard and fast Loose (Burn Down)' supported by metallic sorities and ruff modulations over a pounding bass line in a pure, raw style.

On the flipside, ROD mastermind Umwelt (Boidae, Shipwrec, New Flesh Records) serves up another milestone of a cabalistic anthem dedicated to industrial ware-houses: mechanic Slave To The Rave' signs an ode to the dancefloor thanks to its implacable and hammering beat. Harder, faster, higher seems to be the motto of Rave Or Die seventh chapter! Rush on it.

David Vunk's mini album vinyl debut on the most legendary cult The Hague recordlabel Bunker records! Expect the true techno acid!

(LTD) 150 signed copies, vinyl only

This is an appetizer : 4 “club” mixes of new tracks from Joakim’s forthcoming album Second Nature,all re-mixed by the man himself, navigating between hypnotic Techno, trance-inducing Downtempo
and percussive New Beat.
This is probably Joakim’s most ambitious project so far. An album about our relationship to Nature to make it short or how Western civilization disconnected Nature from Culture. Every song was born
using field recordings as a basis canvas, the sounds of Nature are the lead voice here. A nature that is transformed, sublimized, questioning our ideas of what’s artificial, what’s the wilderness, the place of humans in the age of the Anthropocene and painting a psychedelic landscape to open our ears and our hearts.
The artwork features a lenticular print (2 images in 1) showing Naruto, a monkey who took a selfie using a photographer’s camera who later tried to claim the copyright of that image. That claim raised questions whether copyright can be extended to “non-humans” and was ultimately rejected by the U.S. Copyright Office who specifically listed 'a photograph taken by a monkey' as an example of an item that cannot be copyrighted.
