Who we are:
Praxis is a label dedicated to experimental hardcore and radical breaks which was founded in 1992 in London. The first two 12" records came out at the end of that year, the Scaremonger EP and 'Knee-Jerk Reaction' by Bourbonese Qualk. These contributed to and commented on the rising techno and rave scene, coming from a background of experimental post punk and industrial music. Soon the label expanded and explored experimental hardcore, electronic weirdness, breakcore, speedcore and noise.
Since then there has been a steady stream of releases and activities, which we continue today and into the future from our base in Berlin. We have many many plans for this year, for releases as well as live events, as well as for publishing activities that go well beyond those of a 'record label'.
This shop is the primary outlet for traditional-format releases by the label, its associates and the wider network we are involved with as well as other items and productions of experimental electronic music and radical literature. This includes many exclusive titles and limited editions.
To find out more about the label's history, check out the 10th episode of The Molehill Report on our YouTube channel 'Noise & Politics' (click on the image below)
If you are a reseller (record store, book shop, online store, distributor etc.) please open a company account. We will then activate your B2B merchant account.

Trippy industrial techno and bass music from the mysterious Subsonic outlet from Berlin!

Mindsync / Motoblok: Subsonic 005. The runout grooves read: Space is only noise if you can see, and: Life without music is an error

Subsonic 006 with Computer Controlled and Modulator, originally released in early 2018.Extreme freezings in the mid- and farwest of the US and continental Europe this winter of 2017 / 2018 caused unexpected wave delays in the geomorphic transmission . Thatfor the incision of the matrix became only possible with this glamorous spring blossoming, which recalls the endless moments of acid again and again..,. with 2 full sider tracks ... navigated by COMPUTER CONTROLLED and THE MODULATOR ( aka freddy fresh )... both sides were cut ultra deep on 45 rpm . testpressings arrived to the record shop in Berlin. final pressing of very limited 300 copies is expected for august 2018 . Fat yeah !

Pure has released highly diverse music with different projects for over 25 years - distorted Acid on Drop Bass Network, industrial hardcore on Praxis, heavy techno on Ophism, Experimental Electronics on Editions Mego, and dark broken beats on aufnahme+wiedergabe, to name just a few. With his latest e.p. he delivers three tracks in the classic hardcore rave style of mid 90s Things To Come Records - distorted 909, analogue rave sounds and disturbing voice samples. The release comes with two remixes - label owner The Horrorist adds one with a strong 80s New Wave vibe and Temple Traxx owner Bizz O.D. turns the heavy rave original into a distorted funky acid killer.

Collaboration of ADC and Somatic Responses originally released in 2004. Mint copy from the label archives!Eagerly awaited this is the collaboration of two of the most important groups of innovators of hard electro(nica) : ADC from Rome and Somatic Responses from Wales. Having started around the same time – about a decade ago - their release history has been completely different: ADC's releases are few and far between, while the Somatics have been putting out several dozen records and CD's with many a classic among them. As their paths cross with this powerful record they present themselves as fresh, innovative and deep as ever.A1 - ADCSomatic: SincromathA2 - ADCSomatic: E-OperaB1 - ADCSomatic: SlowsophyB2 - ADC: MTA-100 (SR Rebuild)B3 - ADCSomatic: Thanks

Classic Sub/Version release by Kovert - Extra Low price for a short period [2025]! Last copies of this awesome release!! Sub/Version 006, after 3 years the first installment after a long break, is by UK producer Kovert who has stunned listeners with his release on Praxis (number 34) as well as Damage (12003 - Versioning) after drawing attention with his contribution to the Praxis USA compilation. Titled Jaffna pt. 1 & 2 - is the first in a row of new and forthcoming releases. Razor sharp edits and practical dancefloor sub-version at its most concrete!

This 4-tracker on Praxis by Rachael Kozak and Christoph Fringeli was recorded in the period of 1999-2001 and shows the other side of the coin of their Sub/Version record, presenting more abstract and psychedelic breaks and noise with influences ranging from Hitchcock sountracks to metal bashing industrial music fused in their own aesthetic of dark breaks. a1 - Vertigo (5:00) a2 - Part Of It (3:12) b1 - New Direction (3:54) b2 - Emphasis (3:31)

Ni patrie ni frontières N° 44-45: Nos tares politiques, tome 2 - Antisémitisme de gauche et antisionisme, Septembre 2014 SPD et KPD face à l'antisémitisme nazi Vergès Dieudonné Tariq Ramadan, les juifs et la quenelle Moishe Postone (interview) Alain Badiou, un mao très banal suivi de: Quelques points de vue anarchistes sur l'antisémitisme et l'antisionisme

Label self description: Just not another acid tekno factory, who relase a lot records, but flat for the most part... Without big names, but with bundel of sounds fresh, banging trax on each record from us. Here you can get our discography as good quality, mastered files and you can support us at once. Next hot EPs cant wait to comes out on wax. Stay tuned !! !!!

Relatively early Swarm Intelligence 12" on Instruments of Discipline from 2017 back in stock!

Konvolut der Zeitschrift Sozialistische Politik, umfassend die Ausgaben 3, 5, 6/7, 9, 11-21 - insgesamt 14 Hefte. Die ersten 10 Ausgaben sind sehr interessant, danach geriet die Zeitschrift in DKP-nahe Hände.Das vorliegende Konvolut besteht aus Heften in eher schlechtem Zustand, was sich im niedrigen Preis niederschlägt.Wikipedia berichtet:Die SoPo ging aus den Vorgängerpublikationen Der Politologe und Berliner Zeitschrift für Politologie hervor. Im Auftrag des Fachschaftsrates Politikwissenschaft am Otto-Suhr-Institut herausgegeben, wurde die Zeitschrift durch ihre strömungsübergreifende Redaktion zum wichtigen Diskussionsorgan der unabhängigen sozialistischen Linken. So schrieben zahlreiche Autoren der damaligen „Neuen Linken“ wie Johannes Agnoli, Elmar Altvater, Christel Neusüß, Bernd Rabehl, Freerk Huisken, Bassam Tibi und Ossip K. Flechtheim für die SoPo. Viele Hefte waren aber für Nicht-Intellektuelle legendär ungenießbar. So überwogen zeitweise die Fußnoten; die Textpassagen füllten den geringeren Teil einer einzelnen Seite.Im März 1971 gelang einer marxistischen Redaktionsminderheit um Frank und Hell Stern ein „Putsch“, indem sie sich die Namensrechte an der Zeitung heimlich sicherte. Die undogmatisch Linken in der Mehrheit – die sogenannte Altvater-Gruppe um Elmar Altvater mit etwa 25 Redakteuren und Autoren – trugen den neuen, der DKP und SEW nahestehenden Kurs des nun die Zeitschrift besitzenden Redaktionskollektivs nicht mit und gründeten als Gegenprojekt die heute noch existierende Zeitschrift Probleme des Klassenkampfs - Zeitschrift für politische Ökonomie und sozialistische Politik (PROKLA). Eine weitere Gruppe um Joachim Bischoff verließ ebenfalls die Zeitschrift und übernahm den VSA-Verlag.Die SoPo verlor im Zuge des neuen (ab Ausgabe 11) Kurses ihre Rolle als Begegnungsmedium unterschiedlicher linker und marxistisch-leninistischer Positionen. Das Magazin schuf sich aber im Umfeld von DKP, SEW und den K-Gruppen eine neue Leserschaft. Im Dezember 1978 wurde die SoPo jedoch nach insgesamt 46 Ausgaben eingestellt. In der SoPo wurde das Minihandbuch des Stadtguerilleros des brasilianischen Revolutionärs Carlos Marighella erstmals in deutscher Sprache veröffentlicht (in der im vorliegenden Konvolut vorhandenen Ausgabe 6/7!)

Balli – Marraffa – Balli – Marraffa – Balli… is the new code to tune in to the 8 bit-jazz revolution, dial it on every device you might have to start its ringtone made of sax solos counterpointed by Game-Boy melodies. Once inside the Balli – Marraffa – Balli TRIO the trick wil be to identify the many videogames soundtracks hidden in this free-chiptune ep between the wildest reeds butchery and the Game-Boy gabba. Of course ‘Super Mario Supreme’, ‘Grand Theft Auto Jazz Club’, ‘A kind of Arashi’ and more to be detected inside “8 bit-Jazz Furlough” 10″ vinyl + digital.

Dj Balli, master of breakcore extravaganza and Sindaco, the creator of tropical-electro present MUTANT GOTH ITALO: a mutant fusion between shiny Spaghetti-dance freshness and gloomy Goth music shadows, sung strictly in Italian by the androgynous voice of Ossydiana. Out in May for -Belligeranza the S.B. sublabel dedicated to easygoing midsummer nightmares

BACK IN STOCK After nearly running out of this title, we just received some returns from a distributor and have14 copies in stock again. 16-17 return to Praxis with a triple assault of ultrasonic remixes. The Pandemic Wargames Remixes are based on backing tracks originally recorded in 1995 for a follow up to the album Gyatso which eventually materialised earlier in 2020 in the form of the Phantom Limb LP on Trost. After that Alex Buess once more gave three tracks a severe treatment for The Pandemic Wargames Remixes 12″ on Praxis, bringing sound and mix firmly into the 2020s.

Autumns is the solo project of Christian Donaghey, From Derry, Ireland, an outlet for electronic post-punk with a lethal pulse. After a brace of rough demos without preliminary hype, the project emerged fully formed on Karl O’Connor’s (aka Regis) illustrious label Downwards back in 2014, the youngest act in a new vanguard of artists that included the likes of Tropic of Cancer, DVA DAMAS and The Kvb.

BACK IN STOCK! Broken English Club on Oliver Ho's own label Death & Leisure. LP format! Label info: After the White Rats trilogy behemoth that came out on Lies records, Oliver Ho’s Broken English Club returns with a startling album exploring technology, reality, spirit and the self.Coming on Oliver’s own Death & Leisure imprint, The Artificial Animal is a no compromise journey through raw data noise, feedback, raw dubby techno and experimental cut-up sound pieces.Throughout the 12 track album there is a sense of overload and electronic fevered hallucination counterbalanced with primitive rhythmic machine music.The pulsating low throbbing bass and soaring synths of Ersatz mark the beginning, the drama slowly builds with caustic noise and arabic trumpet calls. This is closely followed by the stuttering sound collage of The Artificial Animal. Concepts of spirit, artifice and technology are the inspiration for the chopped up clips of tv show exorcisms, inter spliced with feedback and static, creating a bewildering kaleidoscope of sounds and texture.After this shocking introduction we jump straight in with Snub, a heavy relentless acid track with roaring distorted drones, that constantly moves higher and higher in intensity. The Slow Bleed follows with dubby warehouse beats and metallic screeches echoing in the background. Concrete is next with broken scrap metal rhythms and melancholic synths which bring to mind early Apex Twin. Next is Sink, a barrage of undulating spiralling synths, white noise and mashed down-tuned vocal take everything into an experimental direction. Following this, Neck brings Warp style staccato bleeps and broken beats, creating a kind of plastic funk. Collapse brings atonal synths and sea sick shimmering chords over heavy drums. Blood and Wire takes a turn into ambient synth atmospheres punctuated by heavy blasts of death metal screams and white noise, creating a feeling that Is both ethereal and maximalist in its level of intense noise.Next is Grey Sands, a dusty atmospheric groove with sparse squarewave bass stabs and industrial high drones. The album moves towards its end with Pervert and its cycling knife sharp buzzing synth drops, raw data noise and psychotic low vocals. The final goodbye is World of Fire, moody ambient atmospheres with glitch slow motion gabba bass drums and the repeated vocal phrase, “Everything’s on fire”. In its entirety the album is a dense collection of sounds and rhythms, theres nothing here for posers, techno fashion victims and party tourists, this music is for obsessives looking for noise and raw broken soul. credits released August 4, 2022

BACK IN STOCK!Blood Debts' is the compulsive debut album from Years Of Denial, the alter-face of London-based French musician/producer and DJ, Jerome Tcherneyan. Though his formulative Marseille youth was spent exploring the darkest corners of post-punk, New Wave, not to mention Public Enemy and the inspirational Mille Plateaux and Basic Channel labels, Tcherneyan, already an extremely capable drummer, quickly extended his sonic palate toward and beyond the bass-heavy electronic isolationism, insistent beats and drone experimentation that's still very much prevalent in his work today. One should not either pass over his integral contribution to the much-lauded, though stolidly underground "ghost-rock" unit, Piano Magic, which engineered sublime collaborations with Brendan Perry (Dead Can Dance), Simon Raymonde (Cocteau Twins/This Mortal Coil) and Alan Sparhawk (Low). Tcherneyan, always prolific, can also lay claim to impressive collusions with Bonjo Iyabinghi Noah (African Head Charge), Damo Suzuki (Can), 70's psych folk legend, Mark Fry to name but a few. In 2005, Jerome founded and promoted the infamous 'Flesh' parties; guests including Andy Stott /Claro Intelecto/Edit-Select/James Ruskin/Kirk Degiorgio/Mark Broom/Oliver Ho/Sigha/Steve Bicknell and many more. These nights served as an invaluable education in Techno and Dubmixology; marathon sets played deep into the sunrise. Skip forward a decade and the DJ bug is even deeper embedded, with Tcherneyan sharing the booth with, amongst many others, Orphx/Phase Fatale/Joefarr and London Modular Alliance. Tcherneyan's muse and foil on 'Blood Debts,' his first for Oliver Ho's splendid and already essential new Death & Leisure imprint, is Maya Petrovna, an entrancing London-based vocalist, film composer and performance/physical theatre artist, whose voice perfectly evokes Billie Holliday, Diamanda Galas and all stations between. There's a black neon heart at the centre of 'Blood Debts,' a fetishtic ritual of contorted flesh and altered states; a feverish, infectious paradox of primitivism and modernity. Years of Denial is the ghost in the machine. 1. Struggle 2. Here In The Gut 3. Metal Wave 4. Metal Wave Broken English Club Remix 5. Hashima 6. Purgatory
