Three The Hard Way Mix (2001) Remaster

second track from the album " 13 " by N & Bu.d.d.A., CD released March 2025 on Drone Records  (SYM:08). 

https://www.dronerecords.de/album.view.html?album=22443

General info on this series: Drone Records has started a CD series named "SYM" (end of 2021) which could be understood as a place holder for different notions and inner processes
 (such as Symmetrization, Symbiosis, Symbolization, forming an epistemological circle of inter-relations)
- associated with the act of perceiving and understanding sound on a  substantial level... 

press release: After the stunning LP on Auf Abwegen a new work by the German/Swiss drone dreamteam, thematically based on the adventureous APOLLO 13 mission (April 1970), when the three astronauts circled around the moon several days...=> an absorbing, cinematic space drone-drama in five chapters, different moods and changes, going deeper and deeper... (feat. samples from DEAD VOICES ON AIR).
Bu.d.d.A. (short for "Bund des dritten Auges" = League of the Third Eye) is the duo of EMERGE and B*TONG, whose sound has been described as "TROUM meets EARTH together with ENO".  
"N" is the project of Dortmund based guitarist HELLMUT NEIDHARDT, member of Drone Rec. artist MULTER and know for many immersive drone LPs...

SUBMECHANICAL ASSEMBLY No. 9

A 2 hour dark soundscape album recorded by over 20 ambient artists to pay tribute to H.P. Lovecrafts Mythos

Juk-Shabb is a Great Old One which communicates by changing color and using telepathy. The being is a powerful psionic and has extensive knowledge of magic. The cult of Juk-Shabb was well known for its brutality and sacrifices to appease their deity. The priests of this cult were feared throughout Egypt for their knowledge of dark magic and rituals involving human sacrifice.

"A great collective of shadows fell over the sky like the lid of tomb, crushing the light of the world into a feral darkness. A torrent of vague manifestations of transparency mixed with moving colours formed an impression of disintegrating brilliance across the cloud base, embroidering the darkness with a shimmering inconstancy which never aspired to a true substance. Nor was any of this seen coherently with the naked eye—but with the mind's eye, only. It was perceived as a mode of feeling across the firmament, without revealing a physical structure. But it invaded the anima of the multitudes who witnessed its tumults—affecting every single person on Earth.
Within days, the populations of the continents and island groups had become infected with a devastating melancholy. Within weeks, a febrile madness took hold. The world had entered a phase of destruction that fell upon the eons of history like a contagion." - Excerpt from Juk-Shabb Booklet

So is this a compilation?
No, this is a collaboration and huge undertaking. Over 20 artists linked studios and sound for over a year so that they could work with each other. This led to a deep collaborative exploration of the Mythos and Rhan-Tegoth

2 CD album comes in a Deluxe 16 page Hard cover DigiBook. Artwork is served on Matte Laminated pages that makes the colors deep and preserved. Journal written by Alistair Rennie, art by Simon Heath. Digital booklet included with download.

Some of my favourite tunes from the zenith of the creative (c)old rush of the '90s. It was all going down in '94! Jungle was on the rise; the Criminal Justice Bill was looming; The Spirals had just emigrated to France; but the bunkers and warehouses were still dripping with sweat, blistering hard analogue mayhem and pounding kick drums. Put on your urban camo, neck that wrap of speed and dance into the strobes!

Hardnoize Analogue Techno from 1994 | Podcast 01

Schisms and camps were forming and from the Hardcore Techno POV, Jungle and breakbeats were contested entities. Was "Da Base II Dark"? The more cutting edge DJs and producers were mixing it up though and breaking down the structures; hints of "Breakcore" were emerging from the 4/4 stomp and the Reese beast was unleashed. Also arguably the year of the French underground explosion? (Explore Toi, Epiteth, Gangstar Toons Industry, Network 23 releases galore, Teknivals etc)

The End Times 1996

The End Times - Vintage Techno from 1996 | Podcast 03

"Cells repeat the process of degeneration and regeneration…
All things change in a dynamic environment"
(Ghost in the Shell)

Bloody hell, I tinkered endlessly with this mix - mainly because it was getting harder and harder to be subjective (as I got more involved in my own productions and label that year) but there're quite a few interesting notes to be made.

Influential labels like PCP were starting to fade. Dance Ecstasy, who in their heyday back in '95 put out a staggering 20 or so releases that year, slowed down to only 6 in '97 (and then one final 12" in '98). Lost/Cold Rush put out their last release (included here) and Kotzaak only two. Sounds Never Seen also put out their last 12" (not sure if that 7" two years later really counts? hmmm) and even the momentum of Nu Black/No U-Turn/Techstep faltered as Ed Rush defected, hooked up with Optical, switched up his sound to 'Neurofunk' and went down the wormhole before the year was out (their first 12" coming out on Planet V). But Panacea was waiting in the wings and 'Shrillstep' was already mashing it down on the Hekate sound system; that and broken beat industrial/techno was the name of the game that year (with impressive runs of releases on the likes of Laurent Ho's Uncivilized World label etc). 

CF in his Praxis Newsletter 12 (Aug 1997) talked about a "new era of nuclear fission of previously seperate or even opposed 'genres'…the impure…combining elements [to make] something heterogenous and new, an attack on the petrified and poor values of the past." 

It certainly felt like that at the time!

I'll stick my hand up and admit my most glaring omission: French speedcore (but no need to mention DHR heh). I didn't collect so much of it at the time - it wasn't really my cup-of-tea anyway, but there was big momentum and development there in '97 - Dead End etc, new labels like Widerstand and old hands like Fischkopf holding it down, with Hangars Liquides just about to burst onto the scene the following year.

Not sure it'll be feasible to do a '98 mix? The diaspora is possibly too great by then and tastes too diffuse? Any suggestions/lists let me know and maybe we can blather about it like true trainspotters. Enjoy!
