Pre-order: melodizemusic.bandcamp.com/album/killing-culture

Bristol-based producer @zobol lands on Brooklyn imprint @melodizemusic with 'Killing Culture', a bold, four-track statement that fuses electro and breaks into something raw, physical, and emotionally-charged.

B-side track 'Weapon of Mass Distraction' unfolds from a looping synth fragment, slowly ramping into a tense, bass-driven groove - relentless, exacting, and distractingly armoured with acidity.

Premiere: Zobol 'Weapon of Mass Distraction'

“To fathom hell or soar angelic/Just take a pinch of psychedelic.”

Dr. Humphry Osmond.


“Time is the substance I am made of. Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger which destroys me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire which consumes me, but I am the fire.”

Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths


The brain is designed to design realities. If you operate your own brain skillfully, you can learn to design your own realities, learn how to communicate in the language of the brain: electrons and photons.

Timothy Leary


Urban Dekoy is the new moniker for the many former faces of JakeBlueface and Blueface Records who has been a techno, tech house, electronic producer since the 1995. Operating under an excess of monikers including Urban Dekoy, Jake & The Electric Nudes, Blueface, Dr Flexible, Metaforce a range of releases have put out most notably on own label Blueface Records, Jenetic Records and Primevil Records including various vinyl and cd releases. Much of the new works and back catalogue is now available on Bandcamp, and Bandcamp (as Urban Dekoy). Tracks vary from the very melodic and light hearted beats of Memories of Life on Earth, through to darker earlier releases like Experiment E, or Reposession a track about body snatchers of the future. Soundcloud will be used by Jake  to capture early versions of tracks, unreleased good stuff and pseudo DJ mixes created in Ableton for listening pleasure.

Layers of darkness embraced by light that stands out at the surface. Known for reckless experimentation in production and recognisable attitude at his Control Club residency, Walentin Pauer's dilettantism transformed into a work ethic which propelled him to the point of reading the room without having to compromise the dancefloor's attitude. Never satisfied.

 While playing for venues and parties such as Renate's Silvester party, Kater Blau, Crack Bellmer, Bohnengold, Virage Paris, Gouter de Nuit or La Rotonde Stalingrad, Walentin Pauer does bookings for 'Cabinet', 'Jetlagged' and 'Jacked' nights in Bucharest for Control Club.
