"Acidish, Techno, Hardcore and Gabber sounds - but in the Slowcore way."

Kosmische Künstler
And what we got here is a release that is a reminiscence of the long-forgotten days of krautrock... the "berlin school", purely electronic variety of krautrock, to be exact. No drums, percussion, singing - just synthesizers, FX, modulation, mutation, metamorphosis of sounds, waves, and thoughts.
A tribute to the era of "kosmische musik", running along themes of other worlds, parallel dimensions, ruins of galactic civilizations, far away star system that give host to the strangest of aliens...
this ain't cosmic horror... this is unfiltered cosmic longing.
so, if you are a sci-fi buff or krautrock aficionado, we think this is the right release for you!
and, in order to pay respect to the classic "krautrock double vinyl album" format, there is only 4 tracks on here, each with a runtime of over 10 minutes.

Introducing a new genre in (electronic) music: The Slowcore Techno Movie
In the last years (or decades?) it felt as if no new groundbreaking innovation in (electronic) music was possible anymore; as if everything "had been done before".
But now there is a wholly new genre on the block: Slowcore Techno.
Usually defined as Hardcore, Doomcore, Techno, Acid etc. music that is slower than 130 bpm.
And as much research as we did, it seems there really was no movement or genre that fit these criteria, until recently. There were maybe a handful of tracks (from 1990 until now!), but beyond this - nothing; the pure void.
It is astonishing (and unexplainable and irrational really) that techno and hardcore producers thoroughly explored the world of 130-230 bpm (and even much faster ventures - with genres like ultra-speedcore) but left the realm below this tempo almost completely unexplored.
And Slowcore Techno can get *really* slow - 60 bpm tracks are not unheard of, and some have a meager tempo of 30, 15, or even 1 bpm.
So, in terms of sheer tempo, Slowcore is the opposite of styles like Gabber or Speedcore.
The scene originally was mostly centered around the internet label Slowcore Records (and yeah, we admit that we have personal ties to this label) but eventually many other artists and labels started to pick up this sound and make it their own - and slowcore tracks can even be found on vinyl and other physical releases nowadays.
While this movement has its dedicated producers and fanfolk, it mostly stays invisible and underground, like other "obscure" genres such as lofi black metal or some strains of synthwave music.
But what better way to introduce this label than by its own special movie?
This is essentially a showcase of slowcore music with some intricate videos enhancing the audio/video experience.
The whole thing sees itself in the tradition of similar 90s rave/techno audio-visual conglomerations, or even 80s experiments like the "state of the art" (later continued as the more well known "the mind's eye") VHS tapes.
So don't expect too much narration or rational coherence - because "this was designed to open your mind" (sorry, oldschool hardcore quote ;-)
As a bonus, there are even some faster tracks at the end.
But now, enjoy this wholly new Slowcore Experience!
The movie will premiere on 11:11 at 11:11.

Gabber At Half Speed
And indeed, if you look at Hardcore History... it started somewhere at 130, 140 bpm... early 90s... and then just went faster and faster. 160 bpm was not uncommon, suddenly 180 bpm was the place to be, and by the mid 90s, everything went faster and faster, 200 bpm, 210 bpm, and even a lot more!
So the idea behind this release is:
Let us undo the history of hardcore and do the reverse!
Not go "faster and faster", but to slow down, getting slower, and slower, and slower......
Yeah we had some Slowcore sounds in the past. I mean, we are Slowcore Records, after all.
But so far this was more or less low tempo Doomcore, Industrial Hardcore, EBM, Dark Ambient...
Not really Gabber House, right?
Now in this case, these are true blue Oldstyle Gabber tracks. with hoovers, choir-hits, rave sounds, bleeps, clonks... gabber grooves... dancefloor smashers.
But at a much slower pace. Half tempo Gabber. Or even more extreme.
It's Hardcore Techno at "slowed+reverb", basically.
And we hope you enjoy it very much!

The Hardcore Overdogs Compilation 2
This is another release employing our "Slowcore2Speedcore concept"; starting low, slow, and heavy, then getting into industrial and doomcore sounds, finally venturing into speedy and terror-core areas, experimental, and noise (while still being heavy).
Combining all the possible sounds of Doomcore Records, Slowcore Records and Omnicore Records united.
But not only the styles are "all over the map", the artists are as well, heralding from Belgium, Germany, England, Ukraine, other places, and even outer space!
So if you are in for a release that is "a bit different" from the Techno and Gabber mainstream, why not pay a visit to these soundscapes, too?
This compilation is released in support of The Hardcore Overdogs "E-Zine for great and / or underrated Hardcore Techno past and present!"

https://doomcorerecords.bandcamp.com/album/90s-hardcore-gabber-and-speedcore-revival-the-next-chapter
It started a few years ago: a growing interest in the hardcore, gabber, rough electronic sounds of the 1990s.While the focus was at first towards the more dance-y, mainstream aspects of this scene, the explorers of this realm are excavating more and more stuff by now; we not only see a revival of early hardcore and gabber, but also of the underground, speedcore, acidcore, "terror" material.
this thing is getting huge man, and recently gabber beats began to blast into mainstream media and the public eye, with movie directors, famous pop stars, and everyone else really, starting to adopt these sounds.
is this development good or bad? you be the judge. but it's been a wild wild ride my friend, and we definitely desire to jump in, to surf on this train, and look where it leads us - into salvation, darkness, or both?
this is a 8 part release. the centerpiece is a megamix of (new!) hardcore revival tracks in the 1990s style (with some modern twists and production, too).
it starts slow at 180 bpm, begins to climb steadily, 200 bpm, 240 bpm, 260 bpm, and then lifts of into oblivion.
and there are also 7 pieces from this mix as stand-alone tracks - maybe useful for DJs or listeners at home.
Either way: enjoy and bon voyage!
