"Dresden a city in transition" - opening quote from a documentary about Dresden techno culture from the german music TV station VIVA (RIP), 1994.

Almost 30 years later this is still the first statement you hear about the local scene. But who are the talented people that have been brought forth by various shifts and are driving the next ones. Let's show the millenials, who spend hours watching average djs in a bathroom, what's out there. Let's show the old white men from the valley, hey these are your kids too. Let's show the elite hipsters from the wannabe berlin club, don't just book expensive international acts that nobody knows anyway. 

These are your fragmented bodies you should listen to.

A1 robs you of your sleep, tinkered out in the darkest laboratory of contemporary breakbeat researchers.  
A2 is brewed according to a similar recipe, but the ingredients are far more worn out and the arrangement can be put together more densely, beyond all rules. In the end, Jules' strong voice brings you back on board.

Let's move on to the B side, or should we say C(lub) side! Because B-ware is the wrong word here.
B1 will blow your mind with every modern electro and jungle attitude and will make sweat drip from the ceiling in the mainfloors of our favourite clubs!
Xynia closes the shop with B2, which has everything the modern raver could wish for.

Bandcamp

A2 - RANDOM DATA - Six Million Ways To Live [fragmented:]

Artist: @randomdata, @marsleder
Track: Zeremonien
Label: @fragmenteddigital
Format: 12" Vinyl, Digital, EP
Release date: 06/10/12
YouTube: https://youtu.be/Dq2HQttB5rw

The upcoming second vinyl release fragmented:borders (FRAG:002) by young, interdisciplinary label fragmented: from Dresden features three original productions by fragmented: resident RANDOM DATA accompanied by a remix from WARNING resident Mars Leder. It is composed of experimental breakbeats defined by dubby bass and eclectic drum patterns infused with oriental rhythmic elements, creating a sonically unique atmosphere. The remix by Mars Leder is a dreamy and playful house re-interpretation of the original, which skillfully opens up new perspectives on its various elements by embedding them in a refreshingly uplifting soundscape.
The cover artwork by Lydia Henkel deals with the haptics of memory. Traces of working in the ransacked material are emblematic of gestures of individuals who have to fight their way through water, authorities, everyday life, in order to find a foothold and to be allowed to arrive. The often invisible struggles of those who must fight for perception and treatment as individuals and not as the cause of problems are reflected in the vase and remembered silently and angrily.
A central part of this release is the cooperation with political association “Mission Lifeline'' which mainly focuses on sea rescue missions in the Mediterranean. By drawing attention to their work on the vinyl cover and inner sleeve print, the aim is to provide a platform for this vital cause. To further support their efforts, 50% of the proceeds from this release will be donated to Mission Lifeline.
The release is set for October 6th as a 200 copy edition on black vinyl as well as digital through Bandcamp

PREMIERE | RANDOM DATA - Zeremonien [fragmented:label] 2023

Premiere: RANDOM DATA - 'Karam'

Today we are premiering a fantastic remix work of Warning resident Mars Leder. His flip for 'Six Million Ways To Live' by RANDOM DATA comes out today on fragmented:, young label from Dresden with close bounds to beloved Objekt klein A.

While the original track is a bass-heavy tune driven by a pervasive Eastern synth, Mars Leder's interpretation lifts the vibe with a melodic twist paired with the punchy kick game characteristic for his productions. 

The EP is out today on vinyl and digital, available from Bandcamp and other stores. By buying this release, you are not only supporting a great label, but also the NGO 'Mission Lifeline', who are working tirelessly on sea rescue in the Mediterranean.
