(Vinyl includes download codes!)Factory Food is the first album from the Wirebug aka Dan Hekate for over a decade. Now a feature film director Dan has brought all his expertise in sound design to bear on this full-length album of industrial beats, soundscapes and noise.

Now a feature film director Dan has brought all his expertise in sound design to bear on this full-length album of industrial beats, soundscapes and noise. Intertwining broken rhythms with melancholic melodies, harsh analogue percussion with acoustic instruments, this is a series of tracks that asks the listener to engage or retreat.Including collaborations with Praxis founder Christoph Fringeli, instrumentalists Enrico Gontero on the accordion and Steph Voodoos on acoustic guitar this is a listening experience in of itself. It includes tracks that you would drop to packed breakore dancefloor as well as those that would feel more at home in a noise concert but all the same it is cohesive and true to it’s own nature – a cold, minimal, mechanical beast rumbling across the landscape of our digital age.

Sub/Version is the sister label to Praxis dedicated to hard and dark drum’n’bass, epic breakcore and bass exploration. Sub/Version was mainly active on the vinyl front between 1997 and 2009 with a range of releases by founders Pure and Fringeli as well as Amboss, Crisis Theory, DJ Hidden, DJ Scud, Hecate/Etaceh, Kovert, and Vile Enginez, and also included remixes by Panacea and Fennesz.2010 and 2011 saw a digital series of 10 one-track releases with smashing works by Amboss, Christoph Fringeli, Egon Frinz, Grr, Kovert, Noize Creator, Somatic Responses and Vile Enginez (all still available via bandcamp).In the following years the Sub/Version project was put on the back burner, but it’s not over: With Sub/Version 012 we take a look at the beginnings of the label, re-releasing the first two installments of the series: Dark Star, which appeared as a one-sided 12” in 1997 and (the A-side of) Anti-Christ, which appeared the following year. The original B-Side of Anti-Christ, A.C., is available as a bonus download track.Both tracks were written and produced by Christoph Fringeli and Peter Votava, aka DJ Pure, in Vienna at Pure’s studio. They represent a turning point in the mutation of hardcore and breakcore clashing with the then emerging techstep sound and contain various references effectively creating something like industrial drum’n’bass, while going beyond either genre’s limitations. With the limited vinyl release of Sub/Version 012 we present them in 2021 as key examples of an incredibly rough and intense sound in all its unpolished glory!

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.Price includes shipping.

This is a copy in excellent condition of the limited "DJ Promo" pre-release of the second Praxis record. Hand stamped white labels. Summer 1992! Important note: On some turntables the track Take Control may jump. This is in the pressing and is hence the case for all copies of this pressing. As a consequence the record was re-cut at the time (1992) and the release copies (with labels) have a slightly different sound (and don't jump on the A2 track). We're offering this from the Praxis archives "as is". Besides the pressing flaw (which may not be evident, depending on your turntable), the record is in excellent condition. Comes in the original Praxis label sleeve from 1992.

A small handful of copies back in stock - LAST COPIES!Original label info from 2002, when this excellent record was first released: Hailing from Hamburg, Low Entropy is one of the most exciting young producers of phuturistic breaks and hardcore. A riot of noise and beats in shimmering clear production, Anarcho-Psychotic is aptly named, but nevertheless also features moments of tranquility.Very last copies - perfect opportunity to pick up a mint copy directly from the label!a1 - The Truth (4:55)a2 - The Agony Of Everyday Life (5:13)b1 - Symphony Of Creative Destruction (7:23)b2 - Mental Cleansing (2:45)

In stock now: Classic 16-17 studio album produced by Kevin Martin in 1994 for first time on vinyl !  Gyatso originally appeared on Kevin Martin's Pathological label in 1994 as a CD and was rereleased, again on CD, in 2008 by Savageland.  Praxis, in collaboration with Skin & Speech proudly presents the first vinyl edition of this classic album. The vinyl edition contains 6 tracks and includes the download for the full 13 track album.  16-17 started in 1983 in Basel, Switzerland. They released a number of cassettes, before debuting with their self titled and self released album in 1987. Two years later this was followed up by When All Else Fails, an LP of treated live recordings on Vision, the precursor label to Praxis. By this time 16-17 had already garnered a cult following with their incredibly forceful live performances. Gyatso is a crucial release where the raw power of 16-17’s live appearances clashes with a studio-as-instrument approach, as Kevin Martin and Alex Buess add effects and dub techniques to the band’s recordings. Further collaborations between Martin and Buess include the ICE project which also included Justin Broadrick aka J.K.Flesh of Godflesh, the other half of Techno Animal, as well as Human Distortion, released on Digital Hardcore Recordings in 1998. Buess also took part of the Sprawl project with Peter Brötzmann, William Parker, Michael Wertmüller and Stephan Wittwer which appeared on Trost Records in 1997. This vinyl release of Gyatso comes hot on the heels of two important records that came out in 2020: The album Phantom Limb on Trost, based on band recordings from 1995 and finished in the studio in 2019 by Alex Buess, and most recently the 12” The Pandemic Wargames Remixes on Praxis. The latter was a continuation of collaborations dating back to the pre-Praxis days of the Vision label, continuing with the 1999 release of Mechanophobia on Praxis as well as the more recent Vacuum Theory by Cortex and “Skin Craft” by Alex Buess and Daniel Buess.   Praxis is very happy to present this release in collaboration with Skin & Speech, for the first time on vinyl and download!

Building a reputation of sinister beat slicing and dense, magickally charged atmospheres for years with EPs on labels like Low-Res, Zhark and Addict – Abelcain brings forth his first full length from a darkened laboratory hidden deep inside a Transylvanian Castle.

Join the legion of fiends in their insurrection of darkened lusts. This album is packed full of mind blowing dancefloor tracks that will transform any party into adevilish night of godly delights.Each track is based on and inspired by a famous monster like Dracula or the Invisible Man, one for movie buffs as well as breakcore freaks, on loud double vinyl and in an astonishing packaging with red metallic foil print.Zhark International has recently raised the stakes as far as depth and production is concerned and is successfully countering the trend towards the superficial in the breakcore scene.A1 - IntroductionA2 - Curse Of DraculaA3 - Lupa LustB1 - The Crooked Shadow Of Mr. HydeB2 - Bride Of The MonsterC1 - Musca DomesticaC2 - Stratagem Of The Invisible ManD1 - Resurrection Of ImhotepD2 - House Of Fiends

Not to be listened to by those of with a weak heart or closed mind, ferocious and dark should we fear or respect it?.Coming at you from the darkened mind of Abelcain is his latest release The Garden, mashed up breaks and throbbing basslines fight to the haunting melodies of a ghostlike orchestra, Coming after his album Pantheon of Fiends also on the Zhark label, this ep is definately moodier but with the same fierce flavour that anyone who has had enough of drum and bore constantly craves from a DJ. The title track opens with a metallic rush that leads into some of the most chopped and twisted breaks known to man, as the serpent dares you to continue on your journey into the knowledge of light and dark. “Black Bone Orchid” utilizes filtered strings to draw you deeper into this realm of blasphemous delights, before hitting you with the cut-up metal grind assault that leaves you shattered and broken, “Bitter Moon Blossom”. The EP ends with an older Abelcain compostion, “Danse Macabre” an epic, melodic dancefloor killer - fast paced rolling breaks and hyper edited staccato hooks round off this 4 tracker. Adding a new chapter in the legend of this mysterious American producer. A1 - The Garden A2 - Black Bone Orchid B1 - Bitter Moon Blossom B2 - Danse Macabre
