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)

LABEL INFO: In the heart of the cosmos, a tale unfolds. It begins with "My Space," where ethereal synths weave a cosmic tapestry, guiding you through distant galaxies. As you journey further, "Satan" emerges, beckoning you to dance with the darkness itself, under the canopy of sadistic beats. Venturing deeper into the EP, "Get Stupid" takes you to an enigmatic dimension, where gravity-defying rhythms entice you to embrace your wildest instincts. In "Yallah" the atmosphere shifts, transporting you to a mystical oasis where sonic mirages shimmer in the desert of sound. And just when you thought the adventure reached its pinnacle, "Can't Get Enough" mesmerizes with its infectious grooves, leaving you irresistibly addicted to the sonic enchantment. Turns out Coco Bryce is more than just a hot piece of man meat. On "My Space" this enigmatic master of sound once again harnesses the forces of the universe to craft five enthralling compositions. His boundless creativity and passion for exploration shine through in every beat, taking you on a euphonic jungle expedition like no other.

Ultra limited hand made sleeve version by Nomex's legendary drill turntable 7"! Made by Nomex himself, there were very few copies of this release with hand made covers. Some were collages from 80s/90s British porn magazines (incl. the censorship which was prevelant then), other were in rough packing paper. The cover of the one copy I'm selling here is from contact pages of a porn magazine. A second copy looks similar but promises "Reader's home recordings" and "Uncensored Sex Stories" etc. A third copy we have available is in the brown paper bag/wrapper variety. Note that the full amount of this sale (if you buy the record) goes into the production cost of Nomex's posthumous 'Paroxism EP' (more info will be linked here soon) The 7" is in NM condition, probably unplayed, and has no signs of use.

First ep on Frenesia is by label creator Zumal to set its foundations. Diagnosis tries to express the mistrust and the unborn rebellion towards this paradoxical world where the right ones are often unheard and good people and the author struggle to mantain their self-control and sanity. In the meanwhile the system is always on the edge of collapse and the dystopia keeps evolving. Prejudices, envy and fake respectability are always a constant. The ep is flavored with intricated rhythms,incisive sounds and odd atmospheres with an industrial oriented A-side and a more technoid B-side and it contains 2 remixes by the sound sculptors Blush Response and Sirio Gry J. <iframe style="border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2897528994/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=e32c14/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/" seamless><a href="https://frenesia.bandcamp.com/album/diagnosis">Diagnosis by Zumal</a></iframe>

Uru-Uru Lenker, die ethnoturbologische Koryphäe, eine Berühmtheit für das Stricken hörbarer Socken und fingerloser Schallhandschuhe des Wissens am renommierten Instituts für angewandte und experimentelle Turbologie, der fünf Jahre seiner Karriere dem Eintauchen in den Schneckentrog der Gosper-Berge widmete, indem er mit den sesshaften, selbstähnlichen schraubenden Stämmen lebte, ihre einzigartigen musikalischen Traditionen sowie die unzähligen verblüffenden Pirouetten, die diese begleiten, studierte, wobei sein Fokus auf der Enträtselung der komplexen rhythmischen, klappernden Schimpfmuster lag, denen "Fin Inity" beigetrommelt wurde, und der klothoiden Strukturen in Übersetzung verlorener Texte, die den Sound des Gosper-Stammes definieren, ein musikalischer Teppich, wie er ihn noch nie zuvor gesehen hatte. Als Lenkers Uru-Uru tiefer in diese fraktale Klanglandschaft eintauchte, begann er die Konvergenz von lyrischem Können und roher Emotion auf der Grundlage von Klatsch/Tratsch, Lachen, Tanzen und Springen zu verstehen, den vier Elementen des Gosper Mountain Sounds, die unser Verständnis von Battle Rap „en tant que tel“, wie die Franzosen sagen würden, in frage stellt. Wir, als einer der wichtigsten Partnerinstitutionen des Instituts für Turbologie, haben nun die Ergebnisse dieser umfangreichen Recherche auf Magnetbandkassette C32, in einer Auflage von 50 Exemplaren veröffentlicht, inkl. Downloadlink, vollfarbige, doppelseitig bedruckte J-Card, 22 Tracks, produziert von Lenker mit einigen der geschwätzigsten Schwätzer der Gospers wie Kermit Zirkuluak, Salb Dios Rauntze, Rinkeloïde Spazkarh-Hasi, Czelaria Gottspuck sowie Uniberta Gonbidatzel, Trypta Minelli und Kohlrabi Hozkor, die alle ganz natürlich schon von jüngsten Alters an Silben gespuckt haben, auf die verdrehteste, lockerzüngigste Art… <iframe style="border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=986127637/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/" seamless><a href="https://raketenbasis-haberlandstrasse.bandcamp.com/album/uru-uru-lenker-presents-sounds-of-the-gosper-mountains">Uru-Uru Lenker presents: Sounds Of The Gosper Mountains by Various Artists</a></iframe>

PRE-SALE of Praxis 60 - Nomex: Paroxism EP. important: special early bird price only till the end of June 2024!! Noise artist and film maker Paul Kidd aka Nomex was behind some iconic experimental releases of the 90s, mainly on his own Adverse label, exploring the nature of physical nature of noise and vinyl, his preferred medium. Several of his records explored and articulated this interaction, such as Adverse 1 (A Moment in Eternity/Language of Dissatisfaction) - a needle playing the label, Desiring E.P.2 (Adverse 3) - a drill used as turntable, and Are You Anything More Than Just A Product of Your Influence? (Adverse 12) - dual parallel groove cut on 16rpm and 78rpm. Other works veer into sound collage and beat destruction, such as The Bruitist Shaper, and Trocante Gramofony E.P. He also experimented with extreme noise frequencies at live gigs, some of which were documented on a series of CDRs on Adverse in 1997 (all of these have now been uploaded to our YouTube channel). Important to mention are also his collaborations with DJ Scud with the two classic 7"s Eurostar/Piling Machine and Total Destruction on the Maschinenbau label, both re-released by Praxis on one 12" in 2018. Ever since his 1999 release Trocante Gramofony EP (Praxis 33), there had been talk about doing a follow up and around 2010-2011 Nomex indeed worked on an album for Praxis, the material for which was finished, but not compiled at the time of his death in 2014. We compiled it as close as possible to what we think his intentions would have been and as to be expected it's a killer noise album! The record will be pressed in a limited and numbered edition with a hand stamped label and sleeve as well as a 30x30cm cover graphic/poster inlay and postcard in an edition of 100-150 copies. Finer details of this may yet change/vary as we're figuring out the production cost and details. The image depicts the 30x30cm print insert. Details might slightly vary. A download code for digital tracks will be included. We're looking at an August 1st 2024 release, more details will be posted as we move forward with this and other projects. Available for pre-order now at a reduced price of 15 euro for a limited number of orders and only until the end of May 2024. RRP will be €20 once it's out. If you order the record now, it will help us to cover manufacturing costs and to bring the release into existence at the time for the projected release date at the beginning of August. <iframe width="100%" height="350" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" allow="autoplay" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/playlists/1821016461&color=%23ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&show_teaser=true"></iframe><div style="font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc;line-break: anywhere;word-break: normal;overflow: hidden;white-space: nowrap;text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-weight: 100;"><a href="https://soundcloud.com/praxisrecords" title="Praxis Records" target="_blank" style="color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;">Praxis Records</a> · <a href="https://soundcloud.com/praxisrecords/sets/nomex-paroxism-ep" title="Nomex: Paroxism EP (Praxis 60, Work in Progress)" target="_blank" style="color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;">Nomex: Paroxism EP (Praxis 60, Work in Progress)</a></div> If you wish to help us move ahead with this and other releases, consider supporting our 2024 Vinyl Fundraiser campaign on Gofundme HERE IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are already a SUPER-SUBSCRIBER you will receive one copy of this release as part of your subscription.

Hanno sfondato la porta di casa con la furia devastatrice delle teste di cuoio. Hanno rovistato nell’appartamento del blogger californiano Jason Chen sequestrando computer e archivi. Il tutto per venire a capo del giallo della scomparsa di un segretissimo prototipo di iPhone 4, dimenticato in un bar “per una birra di troppo”. Nata in un garage con la bandiera dei pirati sventolante, creata da un ex hippy e da un hacker, oggi Apple lancia strali contro i software liberi, promuove crociate antiporno e dichiara dissanguanti guerre di brevetti. Sullo sfondo pulsano la guerra dei formati, del web e delle libertà digitali. Apple non è più l’azienda dei creativi che anni fa ci esortava con il Think Different, ma il peggior nemico dell’underground digitale, come dimostra il blitz contro il blogger di Gizmodo che ha realizzato lo scoop dell’anno: le foto in anteprima dell’iPhone 4G. Mela Marcia parte da questa vicenda per sviscerare cosa si nasconde dietro alla mutazione di Apple: la mania della segretezza, l’astuto ruolo del messia laico Steve Jobs, il potere del marketing aggressivo e il bluff dell’iPad. Il volume è completato dalla storia del giornalismo 2.0 nell’era di blogger coraggiosi e di “gossip merchant”.Mela marcia è anche un libro interattivo: grazie ai codici QR sparsi nel testo è possibile accedere ad approfondimenti e filmati in rete, tramite uno smartphone e un’applicazione (rigorosamente free).Questo libro non finisce qui. È un continuo work in progress pensato per non restare chiuso tra due copertine, ma per continuare a raccontare storie (di Apple, ma anche di moltissime altre aziende, realtà e situazioni dell’IT) di cui di solito non si parla.Per sapere come continua la storia andate su nessungrandenemico.org pp. 128 • illustrato • 2010 ISBN 978-88-95029-40-5
