Co-Accused return for their second release of 2024 with a hand picked V/A sharing sounds from some of the label’s favourite electro and techno producers. Underground legends and fearsome up-and-comers come on board to the Glasgow based label with Luke’s Anger, SOD-90, Steve Allman, Mal_Hombre and Parand delivering tracks. CR006 VA is selected for the dancefloor, tried and tested in Co-Accused's own DJ sets.

Luke’s Anger launches the EP with some up for it wonky business in ‘Choplifter’. From one of the masters of the wonky techno sound Luke’s Anger continues in full form with his tight yet askew playful beats. SOD-90 comes in next with ‘Saving Up For Botox’ with his fearless punk take on the electro sound - his own brand of high intensity atmospherics mixed with distorted synth lines, vocals and kicking breaks. Cultivated Electronics’ Steve Allman leads the B Side with ‘This is Not A Dream’ calling on driving hoover bass and haunting synths in classic UK electro style. For the B2 Mal_Hombre takes the EP down a deeper and more spatial path with ‘Triangulation’ with delicately detailed and propulsive techno, a long time friend of the label whose debut album Andromeda Outpost released on Jeff Mill’s iconic Axis Records. Topping the whole thing off Berlin based producer and Avoidant alumni Parand delivers the final hit with Bloc - a powerful, pitch black, driving heads down moment.

Co-Accused is the DJ duo of Raymond and Lindsay Green who are long established in Glasgow as label founders and party promoters of the same name. From their notorious basement raves in Club 69 they have played and hosted at most of the city’s best-loved party spots and have built a solid reputation in the Glasgow underground scene. Last year they held their debut takeover of Sub Club with a sell out night hosting Dave Clarke on his Archive One anniversary tour and at the end of 2024 they announced a quarterly residency at The Berkeley Suite. 

The pair know techno and electro inside out, their dynamic ethos and tack for driving up the energy levels as DJs has not only made them firm fixtures on local party line ups but has also taken them to Amsterdam, Barcelona and London. Fuelled by the pair’s devotion to underground club culture, Co-Accused Records is a hot bed of uncompromising club tracks, releasing sounds from the likes of Ben Pest, Luke’s Anger, Fear-E, Human Rebellion, ARA-U and Radioactive Man. To date, the label has been featured in DJ Mag and supported by some of the most respected heads in the game including Helena Hauff, Laurent Garnier, Dave Clarke and Slam.

This year they continue to step out in Glasgow with their regular Berkeley Suite residency, guest spots and some extra special events in the pipeline - keep your eyes on them for more.
