New lovechild of BAR club in Rotterdam, this one year old label releases different musical vibes but always related to club culture. After 2 brilliant various releases including Sacha Mambo, Fader, Zombies In Miami and Pin Up Club, this 3 issue features The Hague’s bad boy JEANS and Milan’s rising duo Younger Than Me for a special super dancefloor-friendly selection.  Grand Theft Auto, damn, some of you may know how perfect it is to satisfy your appetite for destruction, and that heavily hypnotic breakbeat is definitely the perfect soundtrack for off road mountain downhill in garbage truck or a bazooka gang war in the streets of San Fierro; in mean, in the game of course. Built around a pumping acid bass, big beat drums, weird background works and brilliant melodic breaks, close your eyes and you will instantly will be in the middle of Rotterdam’s legendary club,  peak time mood. Out on may 28th.

Head of Samo records, one of the fav friend records of Hard Fist and promoter of the infamous "Samo Nights" where all the finest underground artists play in New York, Facets comes to New York from London and Belgrade, with a passion for all things leftfield, electro, techno, acid, new beat, italo, balearic, and beyond.

For his first appearence in the Hard Fist family, he offers a bombastic edit of the wonderful "Lake Of Sens" EP release by German duo Tribantura in 1988. It was the only original records from those 2 talented guys which deserved to be re-edited into a proper techno/EBM way, it's now perfectly done! Enjoy

Whilst the world is on pause, we thought it be a good idea to showcase some works that have been moving us months before the lockdown kicked in. We wanted to share and replicate the same amount of electric vibrational emotions it initially had on us upon first listening to them, so the best way we could describe that feeling was by calling this VA series, Currents I. In this compilation theres some faces you know from the Power Station roster intersected with some soon to be Power Station release inductees, once this mess clears up obviously.

Anyways we hope you enjoy these as we have been waiting to share them for some time. Available now on bandcamp.

Stay safe

The Futurists rejected tradition and introduced experimental sounds , and this fact, that influenced a lot of composers during the 20th century, helped them to build a concept that started the career of Barcelona based duo Iro Aka. The evolution of their music started with this EP, fluctuating through psychedelic and esoteric influences, taking as its main references the continuous technological evolution and those new techniques to make electronic music. “Futur” is an extract of the first ideas of Iro Aka. They started the project at the beginning of the 2017 and then this EP was produced then, showing the abstraction that they felt at that moment, a path drawn by different sounds that came from different people and different places.
The slightly psychedelic dance floor experience is delivered by Anatolian Weapons. Pulsating rhythms intertwine with classic drum sounds and paint a mood almost contradicting the vocals of the track. Perfect secret track for any dance-floor.

Synths, sequencers and pure unadulterated bullshit...
Here's a collection of released tracks, remixes, unreleased/unloved/unused tracks, live sets, demos, sketches, ideas, noodles, fuck load of mistakes, and in some cases, just badly produced shite. ;-)

OK, now for some accompanying self-aggrandizing BS to embellish this bollocks...
Emile Strunz was born in a bedroom in Burleigh Street, on the dancefloors of Ibiza, Spain and Germany and amidst the fire and fury, dry ice, and strobes at many a Front 242 and Nitzer Ebb gig. Exposure to the UK's club scene over an 18 year period also saw Emile contribute to Mixmag and write press releases for the Cream empire whilst interviewing Moby, Richie Hawtin, and Depeche Mode's former sonic architect, Alan Wilder, for his Clubs column whilst at university. It was rumoured that he bought his first of many horses around this time.

His debut single, Shields, released on Andy Blake and Joe Hart's World Unknown label was a first introduction to his hard, heavy and hypnotic electronic sound, and was number 1 on Juno Records' Electro House Chart and was Record of the Week on Piccadilly Records' House Chart.

"Shields" sounds like that exact point when EBM and nu-beat was on the verge of becoming house music... Or perhaps when Paul Oakenfold decided that sluggish acid house was what the world needed (think of his Happy Mondays "Wrote For Luck refix") - Piccadilly Records

"Take a glance at the biography and Soundcloud of Emile Strunz and it's apparent the producer has been fine tuning a well chosen approach to his craft over some time, culminating in the quite excellent "Shields." A solid mid tempo jacker of a track driven by a liquefied arpeggio, the unhinged vocal chanting that sits deep within adds the requisite idiosyncratic touch we've come to expect from the label run by Blake and Hart." - Juno Records.

"Food for the Italo disco and EBM fans", Clone Records

"Uncompromising...unlike anything else out there at the moment", Narc

"Incredible", Heidi, BBC Radio 1

Elan Vital from the North Sea Body Music EP was picked up by the legendary Andy Weatherall and included on his mix for the French Inter Radio Station

The Voyetra Technique EP was released on People Get Real's Join our Club label in November 2013.  People who you know (who can't say no), a 10-minute body beat epic was released on Ali Renault's Vivod label in January 2014 - and was broadcast on Erol Alkan's Friday night BBC Radio 6 Music show. 

Emile made his live debut in Rotterdam in 2013, alongside Das Ding, and he then took his hardware-driven live set to Newcastle, and the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.  In early 2014, after angering a total berk, he toured Russia (is two shows a tour?), playing packed venues in Moscow and St Petersburg, played live alongside Scott Fraser and Timothy J Fairplay at Hackney's Oslo venue, played the (Still) the enemy within event in East London alongside Test Department, and his live show followed The Hacker's DJ set at Berlin's Magic Waves Festival.  

He also contributed the New Order-esque 'A Fine Balance' to the soundtrack of the critically acclaimed documentary Still the Enemy Within - a logical contribution given Emile's experiences of the miners strike in his home town of South Shields.

Subsequent gigs in Glasgow and Amsterdam saw Emile round off 2014 nicely.  Battered and bruised (literally)
January 2016 saw Emile make his debut in Spain playing Femur in Madrid, and two more remixes on NEIN Records followed that year.
More sporadic and chaotic gigs followed, playing Czech Republic and Holland in 2018 and 2019. 
2019 ends with a propulsive re-rub of "Elan Vital' turning the sleek New Beat of the original into a peak-time 115bpm EBM banger on New York's Wonder Stories label.
