For our first tape, the Icon of Sin presents to you 8 post-industrial society techno-electro tracks perfect for the Neo-Feudalist workhouse!

Undoubtably our bleakest release yet, they’ll really get you going (to work past a reasonable retirement age) in their grim and grey grooves, baby!

Futuristic and technologically led past the point of return, drowning in a muddy ancient river; the album conjures a world of firing pistons, frightened people and automated production lines.
The downtempo doomsday soundscapes are at once Detroit Electro, London Hardcore, Norwegian Black Metal and (dare I say it) Berlin Techno.

Here's a blurb from the icon himself:

“I wrote this album over a short period of time (about one week) in 2021. At the time I was living in Hackney central, in a relatively small and cold flat next to the loud Mare Street. I was going through a particularly dark and hopeless period of time due to isolation and post lockdown depression.
The windows of the flat were paper thin, vibrating loudly, too often. I had a lots of sleepless nights, which resulted in this record. I worked in a bottling line at the time, the industrial and repetitive, almost dehumanising environment definitely influenced this album.

The music was written fully on my Octatrack (apart for the track “Benders” which was performed with my modular rack). Everything has been recorded in one take as it comes out from the machine, with minimal mixing and mastering and no post production.
The sonic palette features a couple eurorack modules, sampling from Italian television and whatnot; but most importantly a lot of field recording of machineries I found in the factory I was working at, as well as random captures of environments around me - including Hackney’s busy streets - all mangled and arranged in the Octatrack.

Enjoy!” - Matteo, 2024

A quick follow-up to 2019’s Studies For a Vortex, composed during the quarantine months in Portugal. Gone are many of the “warmer” elements and the obvious human touches that comprised the full length debut, with no scrap metal, no drums, and no vocals outside of the occasional samples. In its place, we’re confronted with 8 tracks of cold, synthesized throb and terminally doomed electronic currents, threaded with crackling skuzz, shuffling debris, and ominous interference. It’s a stripped down and despondent recording, about the loss of what we have as human beings, our capability to feel, experience and create, and most certainly appropriate and befitting of current times.

11xxx27 returns on Infidel Bodies with a new tape release 'Black Market'.
A dense mix of noise/ambient textures and hints of primordial electronic sounds give birth to an EP with a strong isolationist and reflective character towards the current technological domination.
"Domination of technology" refers to the devious control of every aspect of our lives (social media, surveillance, data mining, fake news, etc.).
It is a controversial and aberrant space of confrontation where recognizing whether we are fruitors or slaves of technology becomes complicated.

Black Market is a mostly ambient/experimental album inspired by unusual combinations and spatial properties of audio.
Samplers, field recording, synthesizers and sound processing are the tools of 11xxx27, which engages in a subversive process to illustrate its vision of the modern world.
Mystics, LKSMN and Mod21 also take part in the project with featuring and reinterpretations, enriching the sound flow of Black Market.

Tracklist:
A1. At the end of time (Pleasure)
A2. Oblivion feat. Mystics
A3. Be the worst you can be feat. LKSMN [Tape Only]

G.XIST
"Resurgence"

Jordi Mormann aka G.xist, London-based dj/producer makes his Vumantra debut with his first EP of 2021, Resurgence.

Using both digital and analogic material as delay-looper & noise texture standalone generator, he’s combining screamy synths layers and cinematic atmosphere going along with distorted off beat kicks and impacts, creating a dark and unsure environment, approching from time to time his most melancholic side.

Through this four-tracks story, G.xist expressed the buried feelings and old memories that resurged during 2020 isolation.

One of the most highly respected acts in both techno and industrial circles, Orphx (Rich Oddie and Christina Sealey) have been refining their signature fusion of hypnotic rhythms and experimental noise for many years. They began in the early 90s with a raw sound inspired by old school industrial but soon began incorporating elements of dub, techno and electro into their work. Orphx built up an international following as one of the pioneering acts within the European "rhythmic noise" scene. More recently their work has come to the attention of techno fans through a series of acclaimed releases on the Sonic Groove label, collaborative work with the likes of Ancient Methods and Justin Broadrick, and remixes for many artists including Front Line Assembly, Oscar Mulero, Perc, and Conrad Schnitzler.

Oddie and Sealey have performed around the world at celebrated venues like Berghain and Tresor, and festivals such as Berlin Atonal, Movement, Mutek, and Unsound. They are renowned for their improvised performances, combining software with modular synthesizers and other hardware. Building on a sprawling back catalogue that stretches across industrial, ambient, and techno, their recent output has demonstrated that Orphx are both pioneers and innovators in the fusion of rhythm and noise.
