Killekill Records

 ALEX CORTEX and LOPAZZ are BAD COP BAD COP and they are the perfect artists to open up the new KILLEKILL label with this release: widespread, freaky, open minded but whatever style, all tracks are coming with a heavy groove!
 

A1 “MORE RAVELIKE” features a catchy hookline and lyrics that could be taken as a policy statement of Killekill with their call for to dirt and humanity in music.

A2 “DECAGO” is a melodic, hypnotic piece somewhere between IDM, house and electro that could be coming from Warp as well.

A3 “ALIEN ACID” has been described by Alex Cortex himself as Sun Ra-techno and one of the best musical pieces he has ever been involved with. And that’s what it is, a dadaesque free jazz techno track that has more and more to explore with every listen.

B1 “CHITROIT” is house in its truest sense, groovy, deep, melodic, uplifting. Probably the most catchy track of the whole ep and definitely high quality.

B2 “PUSHERMAN” is nothing but a heavily filtered loop of noisy quality. Something for the advanced djs only but in full effect when used properly!

KILLEKILL002 comes from ALEX CORTEX solo.

The A side track “TACKLE” is an old school minimalistic loop techno track with a weird bleepy melody inside. Made for the late hours on big PAs.

 B1 track “BEACH BASS” is the hit of this record: a deep house number with a bassline that hits your heart immediately and makes you smile and want to dance. A house hit as it should be!

 B2 “BOING BOING” is an uncommon, strange electro track that rounds up this ep and shows the wide range of styles that can be expected from this label.

 HH3 is a techno masterpiece by top notch producer BILL YOUNGMAN. It’s futuristic and cold.

Massive dark drones and ambience build up its very unique atmosphere. For their remix of HH3, techno shooting stars SANDWELL DISTRICT added some industrial flavor. Imagine a steel worm drilling its way into the dancers’ souls and you almost got it.

The last track of the EP entitled “TRILOGY”, shows another totally different side of BILL:

electronica that’s been made to tear your heart apart. Wicked!

BILL YOUNGMAN is hell of a producer. Although mostly known for his techno releases on labels like Scandinavia, Tresor, Null etc., Bill has from day one been producing a lot of excellent other stuff. For example, he released one album of the finest electronica on DEPTH CHARGE’s DC Recordings under the alias AUDIBLE, several EPs of the finest electro on Serotonin and recently remixed JAMIE LIDELL in a rather techy dubstep style for Warp. Bill doesn’t follow trends and dislikes being categorized into one stale genre and so perfectly fits into the KILLEKILL master plan.

Expect several EPs from him on KILLEKILL in the future that will further display the wide range of styles he is interested in and loves.

 SNUFF CREW´s mission is to bring back the fun on the dancefloors worldwide. The masked duo is known for their jacking live shows that combine the raw energy of early Chicago and Acid house with a fresh and modern sound. Rumour has it that they come from “somewhere in Germany”, but their sounds draw a very heavy influence from the original acid house city of Chicago alongside Italo-disco and old school techno flavours. The use of old school roland boxes as sound sources
and almost non existent use of even basic effects means their sound is Rough, raw and aimed squarely at the dancefloor.
Their records have been released on labels like Skylax, Gigolo Records, Rush Hour, Playhouse and many more, but the two guys also run their own imprint called Snuff Trax where they release music of jackmates like KiNK and Neville Watson as well as their own tracks and collaborations with artists such as legendary Robert Owens.

That’s enough for now with the name dropping. KILLEKILL has got a lot of great exclusive material from the guys but decided to release only two very strong and distinctive tracks for now:
DOMO on the one side is a proper acid monster that will go down on dancefloors worldwide like a hurricane and leave the dancers breathless.
EAT THIS on the other side is a rudimentary chicago jack track that might well have been taken off a dance mania record from 1992. This track is working its way with nothing but a few drum tracks and a vocal sample
and is pure raw sexual energy.

 LAKKER are a fascinating duo from Dublin who have released on several labels and recently got dj support from none other than Aphex Twin.

SPIDER SILK on the A side is a funky stepper of extreme darkness. Its epic feel shall make it a hit on all techno, idm and dubstep dancefloors.
8 BLIP is a short straight tech stumbler with a kick drum as deep it will only be audible on proper soundsys-tems - which is where we want to hear those tracks anyway.
LITIV is a piece of rare beauty - simply amazing.
