A1.  Salvation
A2. Deflection
B1.  Mantra
B2. The Start Of Nothing

After 12 years spent assiduously focused on curating the Token discography, showcasing artists he has nurtured and supported over this time, and incorporating the connoisseur?s knowledge and experience he has cultivated in his work as an equally deft and inventive DJ, label head Kr!z finally steps up to deliver his own debut EP for TOKEN90. Moving beyond his first steps in the collaborative composing and production of two tracks for the label?s 10 year celebration offering Momentum, Kr!z reveals the deep personal impact this amalgamation of influences has had on his creative capacity in a new solo expression.

Kr!z fuses his abiding fascination with his heroes; Jeff Mills, Robert Hood and Steve Rachmad, with sonic inspiration from Token contemporaries such as Antigone, Ø [Phase] and Sigha. Four hypnotic trips, exquisite loops and sinuous contours, bolstered with time-honoured percussive grooves.

The opener is Salvation; a delicate and shimmery exploration of semitone meandering. Deflection?s incessant stabs hit on the first beat of the bar and continue to stride boldly throughout. The Detroit influences come through most prominently in Mantra, with a muted, spacey theme, while The Start of Nothing?s gradual modulation of a lead is captivating both in its loyalty to tradition and its forward-thinking musical expression.

Knowledge is proud to welcome back one of its key artists for another full length EP. Filip Sreckovic aka Rèdacs has contributed to the label from its early days and has since had a string of high quality releases on various labels around the world. 

For his Mindscape EP, he presents four analog-driven tracks that combine dance-floor functionality with creative and peculiar sound design. Title track ‘Mindscape’ opens things up with an overdriven synth sequence that repeats hypnotically under frenetic drum-machine rhythms. Thereafter, ‘Night Dunes’ strips things back. With a simple 909 kick, hats and an evolving synth arpeggio, the track morphs through groovy rhythms whilst retaining a dark, haunting character. On the B-side, ‘Counteraction’ ramps up the pace with a thick low-end and rolling drums while the synths adopt a more cerebral character. With multiple builds, breaks and crescendos this one is guaranteed to liven up any dance-floor. Finally, closing out the EP is ‘Infinite Circle’, an off-kilter, synth-focused track that patiently ebbs and flows through muffled drums and strange atmospheres. Tailing off with lush, orchestral pads, this sets the perfect conclusion to the package.

Label: DEAD CERT. Records

Artist: William Arist
Title: Dystopic Perception
Release Date: 13 October 2020
Format: Digital
CAT#: DEADCERT053

01. Drastic
02. Desire
03. Desire (Fossil Archive aka Roberto Remix)
04. Dystopia

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen the previous releases feature music from artists including Audio Injection / Truncate, Paul Mac, TWR72, Echoplex and Petter B, to name but a few.

Uruguay-based William Arist returns to DEAD CERT. following his fierce vinyl only contribution "Cyanophyta" that has gathered pace as an essential DJ weapon. Having released on labels like Animal Farm, Vinicius Honorio's Liberta, Deano (ZA)'s Knowledge Imprint, his very own Perseverancia and soon Marco Faraone's UNCAGE, he also lists support by the likes of Ben Sims, Charlotte de Witte and Tensal.

He has delved into his vast production archive especially for DEAD CERT. and alongside three original works is a remix from Fossil Archive aka Roberto.

Fossil Archive also goes by the name Roberto to many and has a back catalogue including Radio Slave's Rekids, Mike Dehnert’s Fachwerk, Emmanuel’s ARTS, On Edge Society and collaborations with the late Trevino and Roman Lindau for example, his huge, consistent and educated sound is much loved.

"Drastic" kicks things off with a raw, angular jam, wrapped in analogue grit and infectious electronic funk that tears forward with a jovial heart at its core.

Second up is "Desire" that opts for a different approach. The rolling bottom end, pulsing phasers and deep chords add a warm sensitivity to its otherwise energetic framework.

Fossil Archive aka Roberto goes full throttle with his rework, jackin' at its best with both feet on the dance floor and a style that will defy anyone not to succumb to its monumental influence.

Showing his production skills in full effect, "Dystopia" is a lesson in abstract grooves and rich sound design, for those who like leftfield techno dripping in character and creativity.

DEADCERT053 : William Arist - Dystopic Perception (incl. Roberto aka Fossil Archive Remix)

Industrial music was above all a statement of intent. A tool to express social discouragement and the call for rebellion against the concept of pre-established social norms. A claim to freedom. 
While products like the Sex Pistols took over the mainstream, bands like Throbbing Gristle set the standard for authentic punk vibe, which became known as Industrial in the most underground environments. 

Nowadays, industrial music does not exist. There are just few who have been able to be influenced by this music genre and mix it with styles such as EBM or Techno to create a modern and industrial sound. This is the case of Irazu, who we previously released a track on a VA for our sub-label Close Encounters; and who we now have the pleasure of releasing this 'Love Crucified EP'.  
This work overflows industrial feeling and at the same time it has its own character sounding actual, dense and hypnotic. The EP contains 3 original tracks and a remix by Yelling Meltdown; the new project by the producers Kastil & 30drop which work clearly reminds the sound of bands like Skinny Puppy or Front Line Assembly.

Disconnekt is a collective and record label based in Berlin.

Events: https://ra.co/promoters/71498

"Disconnekt is a dream behind the mask of a nightmare. A safe path in the shape of an arduous and hostile trail.
It is a blue sky beneath dark clouds. It is the distant chant of malicious and mesmerising mermaids and a magical forest in a parallel world. Disconnekt is for everybody considering good music to be a way of life. 
It is a powerful whirlwind of such opposing views and forces, yet catalysing intense emotions and feelings."
