when I saw

Synth and drummy post-punk by two annoying people—not my quote—from, I don't know, Berlin? Yes, this bedroom project shows high aspirations of conceptual nihilism in a rudimentary collage way. The album title is a doozy—stoner humor. First you hear a helicopter, then a drumbeat, and a great use of spatial placement. The lyrics are about something too political and philosophical to expound upon here, but worth a listen.

A pretty double feature (split EP) by infamous Tek.Ka from saasfee* / Switzerland and outrageous Christian Strobel from NON-Offenbach. Trippy stuff, exhumed and drawn together by legendary HfGkunst curator Beate Zurwehme!

Walking On Gemshells - Gabi, Jopo & Lubraxx - 15 Aug 2024

Doom is Written on Your Brow

Primal Unity

Full set: https://soundcloud.com/waffensupermarkt/sets/in-vivo

Recorded at 'In Vitro II', Club Moral, Antwerp (Belgium) in 1986 and was released on cassette tape alongside other live recordings by Experiment Incest, Lakoste, Vidna Obmana (Dirk Serries / Fear Falls Burning, who laterly played some times at my own Forum für Experimentalelektronik in Frankfurt, Germany) and Coup De Grace.

I treated the bass guitar. James Dean Brown, who invented 'techno' in early 80s, aka Romulus Coeurque, aka Narcotic Syntax (and later becoming a PERLON superstar and had a collab w/ Helena Hauff) teached and conducted a variety of then-ultra-advanced electronic devices in playing themselves.

Will be officially re-released somewhere soon (maybe) ..

Hypnobeat - The Beat Is Perfect (Excerpt)

EPM.184 comes from Theiz, an artist who has just dropped his fifth release on EPM. With a production attitude that harks back to the more warm and delicate techno and IDM sounds of Terrace, Black Dog, B12, Kenny Larkin and Stasis, his emotive electronica is further captured in this mix that brings the tempo and lights down for a heady, home listening excursion. Featuring the likes of Joep Beving, Martin Nonstatic, Nadia Struiwigh, Lake Haze, TV99AD, Jeff Beck, Tim Hecker, Húsdreki and Martin Kohlstedt this is an immersive mix to lose yourself in.

Theiz (Mathijs Schippers) is now some 30 years deep in the scene. Having re-leased on labels such as Eevolute, Techno-Tourist and Ear-land Recordings in the late 90s and early 00s, Mathijs began producing again in 2015 with no pressure to release – simply just for the sake of making new music.  His activity as a music journalist brought him back into contact with the music industry and now freshly motivated, he is firmly in the saddle with multiple releases on EPM as well as recent releases on Belgium’s Crossfadesounds, Iceland’s Moatun7 and Canada’s Stasis Recordings.

Theiz's musical journey actually goes back to the end of the eighties. Influenced by Ben Liebrand, Bomb the Bass, Coldcut, Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream, he experimented by remixing tracks using an old tape recorder and cassette decks.  At age 17-18 he met the twin brothers Tonie and Peter Van der Loon who opened up a whole new world for him: synthesizers and the underground music scene.  This broadened his horizons with Detroit's Derrick May and Kenny Lar-kin, Richie Hawtin, B12 and Sun Electric all making a big impression.  Years of making music in their little studio in the Van der Loon garage, monthly record buying trips to Amsterdam and the occasional club night resulted in a few re-leases on Eevolute as East Island in the second half of the 90s. In 2000 the first Theiz solo release 'It's Done' became real (as part of Techno Tourist's Various Artists 'Follow the Beat' EP alongside artists such as The Moderator and TV99AD).

At a certain point somewhere in 2019 he spontaneously decided to send some tracks to one of these contacts: EPM Music. As they say, the rest is history as he drops his fourth EP forth eh label, following 2023’s debut album ‘All That Remains’. 

Theiz - I Said Acid EP is out now on EPM Music.
