Gospels of the Worm

Squirming Beneath a Staring Void (Scørch Remix)

IOD PREMIERE #033 // KRISTA BOURGEOIS - FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN

Introducing Krista Bourgeois, our latest addition to PRSPCT Recordings: The Future of Hardcore Industrial Techno. Originally from the United States, Krista Bourgeois has found her home in the gritty, pulsating heart of Berlin's underground. Her sound is not for the faint of heart; it's raw, abrasive, and unapologetic.

Armed with a modular synthesizer, Krista crafts soundscapes that degrade into dystopian textures, accompanied by relentless percussion and analog warmth. Her sonic journey is unconventional, blending mechanized industrial design, experimental noise, and breakcore elements into a unique hardcore-infused techno experience.

Be prepared for her debut release on PRSPCT Recordings featuring three relentless tracks:
"Creation Through Destruction" - A 147 BPM pounding whirlwind that takes you on a journey of tension and distortion.
"Devastator" - A relentless 160 BPM industrial assault on the senses that will leave you breathless.
"Fear of the Unknown" - An 151 BPM exploration of the darker realms of fierce industrial techno with a hint of breakbeats, that will send shivers down your spine.

Rewriting the rules of hardcore industrial techno, with each composition and live performance, she pushes the genre's boundaries, leaving an unforgettable mark on the underground electronic music landscape.

Digital Release, Out November 17th on PRSPCT records.

KØNY - Nightcall

This volume gathers voices from Georgia, Norway, Russia, the UK, Italy, and the USA a lineup built not only on geographical spread but also on a deeper commitment to diversity across race and gender.

What unites them is a shared understanding of techno as a vehicle for tension, defiance, and catharsis. § (Section) sets the tone with 'Distorted Soul', a washed out, atmospheric descent into distortion and decay, where every layer sounds like it's been dragged through ash. ERASE (NOR) follows with 'Repentance', a thumping body track built to punish and uplift in equal measure pure hardware muscle and forward drive.

KLEPERIS delivers 'Applause', a tribal, offbeat, and unbalanced, it moves like a ritual with no clear end, its grooves both jagged and hypnotic. NEW FLESH tears through the haze with 'Bloody Minded' raw edged, aggressive, and soaked in punk energy. It's the sound of someone choosing noise over silence every time.

'The 9th Sin' by NOT SO HEAVY is a gritty, heavy-grained cut filled with smudged textures and low-end pressure, it grinds forward like a corrupted engine. PLURAL closes the VA with 'What Say You', a tightly wound lo-fi piece of driving discord, where looping tension builds toward a sense of beautiful collapse.

RITUALS11 is a sharpened document of where techno stands right now, not polished, not safe, but alive and unfiltered.

Fifteen tracks deep, Cynical Warfare is not just an album — it's an uncompromising manifesto. Cause Of Death channels the chaos of the outside world into a narrative that merges distorted hard techno, industrial tension and cinematic aggression. Every track feels like a battle cry, forged in paranoia, fury and razor-sharp precision.

This isn’t about escapism. It’s confrontation through sound — a reflection of collapsing systems, weaponized beats, and rhythms that march like broken machines. You’ll find no comfort here: just fractured textures, mechanized destruction and the cold, calculated pulse of resistance.

In a time where most follow, Cause Of Death stands firm — defiant, loud, and absolutely unrepentant.

Welcome to Cynical Warfare — where the war is already lost, but the sound still fights back.

Cause Of Death - Voice Of Wrath

Somniac One's fourth EP for PRSPCT XTRM is a love song to hardcore of yore, featuring two nostalgic original tracks and a hellfire remix of Party In My Head anthem 'Kill Everyone' by the one and only Deathmachine.

Somniac One's intense atmospheres and sledgehammer kicks get a euphoric lick on 'The Grand Awokening', a tribute to the millennium hardcore sound this industrial warrior was raised on. 'Hard Synths '92' meanwhile takes cues from even further back down the timeline, marrying early rave stabs and sentiment with Somniac One's thoroughly modern sound design and identifiable signature.

Technically skilled and hard as nails, Deathmachine then breaks the back of Somniac One's much loved 2018 banger 'Kill Everyone', delivering a crossbreed mutant remix that's gonna slay dance floors all over again.
