The collection of articles offers a socialist point of view about some recent developments and events which occured in France in the fifteen years 2002-2017. It does not pretend to give a detailed account of all the problems recently debated in the Hexagon, just some hints to get rid of a few political clichés which dominate the revolutionary Left. Limits of anti-Zionism * The Hijab and the Left * 150 years on immigration * Secularism * "Citoyennisme"? Fatal attraction * Tariq Ramadan * The sad farce of the "no victory" * "Dancing with the wolves" - the riots in France * "The Republic's Natives", the debate about French colonialism and its consequnces * French working class, migrants, racism and the building of French national ideology * Trotskyists, neo-Trotskyists and dinosaurs * Charlie Hebdo, "Muslims", and how to defend freedom of expression (2012) * Left anti-Semitism * The National Front and its influence among French workers * Anti-Semitism and anti-Muslim racism... and more!

Now available again: Datacide Eleven, originally from 2011. datacide eleven originally appeared in February 2011, a little bit over two years after the predecessor issue which had been published in October 2008 and had been accompanied with a conference in Berlin. Issue eleven contains some of the papers presented at the 2008 conference (those of John Eden, Stewart Home and Alexis Wolton) as well as then-new material. Between the two issues was the launch of a new datacide web site (then part of the c8 orbit, now to be found at https://datacide-magazine.com) and a number of other activities, largely event-based, both musical and in the form of talks, sometimes as a combination of the two. datacide eleven itself was launched with a number of talks taking place over two days at Cagliostro, the bar and meeting point at Ostkreuz - then also the location of the Praxis store - and a party taking place at Subversiv with Kovert, Baseck, DJ Balli, Cannibal Brothers, Nemeton, LT and Christoph Fringeli. For this 2022 reprint the issue was carefully re-edited which chiefly concerned formatting issues. None of the content has been altered besides obvious typos and mistakes, but the layout had to be adjusted to the bound rather than stapled finish, and to take advantage of the colour (inside) cover and to give a bit more space to some articles a total of four pages were added. A new back page image was provided by Luke Hekate.

In stock now Disciples of Belial are back!

Label info: Homoagent’s 3rd EP ‘European Extreme’ operates on the fringes of industrial techno and rhythmic noise. Once again combining the exquisite sound design of Triames and the vintage drum machine worship of Antoni Maiovvi, European Extreme is a four track trip through the dungeons of your mind. Relentless and naked, complex and pure, perfect for dance floors and private films alike.

Tommy the Cat on one side with two tracks, on the other side you'll find a track each by Duburban & Jahganaut and by Zoomie. Mellow jungle and breaks.

Tommy the Cat is back on PRSPCT with a nice junglistic four-tracker. - cover is slightly bent on top right side -

Swedish disruptors SHXCXCHCXSH return to Avian.Following on from 2018’s SHULULULU EP, the duo are back channeling their sound-design focused experimentalism into a brace of characteristically high energy recordings. Melding contemporary explorations in rhythm and texture with more traditional club tropes, Kongestion places recognizable leitmotif’s from the dance music continuum in the context of the pair’s inimitable production prowessA1 Kong and follow up Onge offer two takes on a similar template that marry a stepping kick drum pattern with dense, ever-shifting granules of processed white noise. The mentasm sample, that will become a recognizable device across the EP’s course, provides it’s own twisted energy – front and center on the former, and sunk – but no less effective, on the latter. With Nges SHXCXCHCXSH draw on their beatless material for inspiration, inviting a more musical sensibility into the work. What begins life as a staccato, monotonal recording develops slowly and organically into an emotive patchwork piece – drawing on the mentasm, but this time twisting it further and introducing a bassline and shuffling hats. Relentless rhythm track Gest follows – a dense, thorny construction that segues neatly into Esti, another more caustic composition that places it’s focus on intricate, delay-driven sound design with ghostly lead tones that operate just below the surface. As the record approaches it’s close, the duo showcase their range with Stio – a pulsing, meditative ambient cut. Final track Tion wraps up the EP neatly, acting as a fulcrum for the themes explored so far. Bending the mentasms into a hook, the artists create a wall of undulating sound, broken by sporadic kick drum hits and propelled forward with percussive strikes that run through the track before dissolving into soft reverb tails.

Last copy, very light storage wear, hence slightly reduced price. Label info: Perc returns to Perc Trax with an EP that takes the controlled chaos of his DJ sets as inspiration for three tracks that have their sights set firmly on the dance floor. 'Greed Dance' is Perc's first full EP in 14 months, following 'Fire In Negative' on Perc Trax back in September 2020. Since then Perc has pushed through lockdown with an intense production regime resulting in tracks being signed to Lebendig, Possession, RAW and Rote Sonne, as well as this EP for Perc Trax. Originally started at Christmas last year, lead track 'Greed Dance' started life as an anger fuelled full vocal track aimed squarely at the hypocrisy of certain sections of the dance music industry, but over time has been stripped down to a tight rhythm track with sparse vocal elements reflecting a change of mood as the UK's clubs and events were finally allowed to open again this summer. B1 'Resistor' takes a similar approach as previous Perc release 'Toxic NRG', looking to squeeze maximum dance floor drama out of a small group of continually tweaked sounds. Finally B2 track '240 Volts' layers rapid fire organ arpeggios over a rock solid kick & bass foundation to create something fresh for both Perc and techno in general. released November 12, 2021 <iframe style="border: 0; width: 560px; height: 435px;" src="https://bandcamp.com/VideoEmbed?track=647539830&bgcol=333333&linkcol=e32c14" mozallowfullscreen="1" webkitallowfullscreen="1" allowfullscreen="1" seamless></iframe>
