We now bring to you a moody dark techno roller from Ste Roberts own imprint label. With the track "Queen Bee" we have a deep minor chord affair with excellent IDM flourishes and intricate sound design. It's slow moving, hypnotic, and enveloping, bringing you into a world of uncertainty, confusion, and paranoia. Get lost in it.
Out May 14th on a very limited press of 150 pieces of wax and digital.

Bio:
Richard Fearless, DJ/producer/musician/visual artist’s sets are marked not one genre, but a signature sound; a commonality and cohesive narrative that runs throughout.
Fearless began as resident DJ at the Job Club in London’s Soho during the 1990s, where he’d play alongside Claude Young, Derrick May, Dave Angel and Andrew Weatherall. After a few years he was picked as a resident for the legendary Heavenly Social. He has remixed Yoko Ono, Conny Plank, the Horrors, Daniel Avery, Ike Yard, Big Youth and Tikiman. 
While Fearless’ DJ sets and his Death in Vegas output have typically fallen into different genres, over the last few years he has begun to knit the two more closely together. Since 2014, Fearless has ran his own label Drone and released tracks and remixes by the likes of Chris & Cosey, DJ Richard, Legowelt,  Silent Servant, D’Marc Cantu, Gabe Gurnsey (Factory Floor) and Rudolf Klorzieger (Dopplereffekt)
Bonding over a love of Throbbing Gristle in 2016 Fearless collaborated with Sasha Grey to release a raw, visceral techno album, Transmission to much critical acclaim and has continued to push his work in a more abstract insular direction culminating in last years 'Future Rave Memory.

Drone pursues new resonant frequencies with it’s twelfth release, a tonal, penetrating, and experimental album from long time Fearless collaborators, Von Haze.

VII is a nod to the tradition of ragas. Each song written for a specific power centre in the body and to engage both active and passive effects of sustained and concentrated sound.

Recorded in LA, produced by Richard Fearless and mixed at Drone's Metal Box, London.
