>>> COD3 QR: label mission statement

Music is our sole driving force. Eclecticism, open-mindedness, divergence and non-conformity are the values we cherish. To achieve this, 3 or 4 artists from different musical backgrounds will come together on each release.
All of our artists, whether known or unknown, will work under a secret code name so that their true identities remain out of the public domain to avoid any preconceived ideas or a particular bias. By doing this, the music will always come first. Each release will be identified by a simple QR code, which, when flashed, will take you to a web page that will give, among other things, the artist's code name.
In the current market, most digital and vinyl sales occur over an average period of 2 months. Once this time period has elapsed, the true identity of each artist (if they wish) will finally be revealed on our web site. It is only then, two months after the release that the artists will be allowed to start communicating.
Contrary to the usual practice, COD3 QR will search out artists rather than the other way around, so it won't be possible to send us music. The founders of COD3 QR will also remain anonymous because their identities must not affect the image, expectations or perception of the label. To ensure anonymity, all of our artists will sign a contract agreeing to keep silent or be economical with the truth about the identity of those behind the label and the artists.
The music alone will be the reason why we sign an artist, and we want music to be the only reason for people to take an interest and engage with the label. For this to succeed, we must remain free of all expectations and all prejudices because only one thing counts: the music, The Music, THE MUSIC in every shape and form!

Keepsakes, the alias of British-New Zealand producer and DJ James Barrett, has been a strong and distinctive voice in techno since rising to fame through his Stygian Concrete Works and Weapons Grade Manic EPs back in 2014. Since then he has showcased his powerful and menacing, yet often cheeky and playful, productions on influential labels including South London Analogue Material, Perc Trax, MORD, and Mindcut. Furthermore, he founded the Haven club night alongside Jaded Nineties Raver in Tāmaki Maraukau, Aotearoa (Auckland, New Zealand) in 2015 - aiming to introduce clubbers to the experimental and harder side of techno in a city completely devoid of this music. 
In 2018 Haven also expanded into a vinyl-focused record label - going on to release many leading international artists including VTSS, Tommy Holohan, New Frames, Peder Mannerfelt, Ayarcana, Ansome, and Ryan James Ford, as well as becoming the main home for Barrett’s own productions. Now located in Ōtautahi (Christchurch) - following several years in Berlin hitting the European club circuit - he is focused on bringing his tough and eclectic sound to dance floors worldwide, with regular appearances at international techno institutions providing a platform for his formidable vinyl DJ sets.

THUMP // Jamaica Suk Guest Mix

Deep Dark Dynamic & Round. Berlin Set. MAZE.
Oscillation btw EBM techno, Dark wave to Deeper genres.
Intro Track:  Beyond , Part of my upcoming Techno EP

CRWDCRTL is quite a famous name within the field but seeing the current events in France, I felt it was quite a relevant name to speak about a 2d round of the Crowd control (CRWDCRTL II). Violence. Questions about Freedom....Questions about our rights....It's been a year already the country is on "strike" and the citizens claim for more justice. 
The mood of the podcast expresses  all that energy & the mood we are experiencing here.
Deep, Strong...Dynamic. Electric.
Never give up.

CROWDCTRL II - live at Maze - Berlin

Major Town is a French Techno DJ producer based in Berlin. Mentoree for the 1st French edition of  She Said So x Youtube Music crew selected among 12 women nationally to be part the program supporting young new talents.
Her musical accents are diverse and oscillates between Hypnotic, deep and dark vibes. While Major Town has only been curating music for a few years now, her hunger and passion have been the catalyst to start working on her own productions and then, DJing. While her debut EP is in its final stages, she has already released B.T.L (Back To Life) and  DEEP FEELING on Astral Records. In 2019, she has launched  COME HOME along with Spanish Acid Techno producer Ziel, a Berlin-based Techno & Acid Techno collective that gets back to the roots of the movement, space of tolerance that promotes diversity & minorities. Beyond the love of techno music, COME HOME has been created to tackle any kind of sexism, racism and any bullshit of the kind. Everybody is welcome home. The initiative is supported by RESIDENT ADVISOR: https://www.residentadvisor.net/news/72213?fbclid=IwAR0kGuE-6JMsgQxVZuhZW15-BuwjKV1GKwVm4zgTIHtVwVMM7szHWiqQ5tY
Together they organized a few successful Berliner Parties partnering with LGBTQAI & Eco-Friendly collectives. They launched a crowdfunding campaign to support Autopoiesis, the LGBT event promoters’ association that broadcast podcast series for trans/ciswoman DJs & producers. Vinyl & goodies are available and benefits will be donated by the end of the campaign (post-covid) to the collective.  
Major Town has been mixing for diverse radios in Holland, Mexico, Japan, Germany and has been lately Resident for Blitz Radio based in St Petersburg.
Major also gave her voice for one of the Taïwanese Summer Movie's track lucky boy composed by the famous composer Xavier Jamaux, ex member of the French Duo Air.
