Prequel Tapes is a work of deep synthesis. Fragments of melody and memory orchestrated into densely layered tapestries; a deeply emotional study on a life characterised by a shifting relationship to electronics. The pieces serve as a chronology of desire and reflection, reconciling a nascent passion for industrial music with a history in the club.
There is a temptation to draw comparisons to Mark Leckey’s excavation of UK rave culture, Lee Gamble’s junglist memories, or the hauntological approach of the Ghost Box label, however, this is clearly a personal trajectory aesthetically distant from an English past. Oscillating between utopian to claustrophobic, the evolving synth work, deep techno atmosphere, and traces of clangorous energy of early European ambient and industrial tell a distinctly German take, forged between the forest and the autobahn.

Prequel Tapes - Ambient Bass Electronic Hardware Live Set

I1. @ndbaumecker x @Nick-Hoeppner - Labskaus

‘Ostgut Ton | Fünfzehn + 1’ is a commemorative compilation celebrating 16 years of Ostgut Ton – and the first glimpses of light at the end of a long dark tunnel for parent club Berghain.

Originally planned for release in 2020, the music focuses on the interwoven nature of the label and the club in its multitude of different spaces and musical facets. Ostgut Ton artists and close affiliates worked together in pairs to make music dedicated to five different floors, each represented by a specific 12" vinyl. The result is a diverse selection of sometimes functional, other times more abstract sonic tributes; musical homages to spaces they have both influenced and been influenced by.

With the pandemic having forced the club to close temporarily, the collaborative nature of the 5x12" boxset represents an attempt to transcend varying degrees of isolation and to wrestle with memories of music and space that had been inaccessible. But certainly not forgotten.

XXXVI - Industrial Romantico
Respecting pandemic strictures, Robert Johnson Club hibernates since mid-march. Its iconic view from the balcony can now be seen on the Robert Johnson homepage in real-time, as long as the club remains closed. Each SEE YOU SOON Ambient Mix has been crafted with this feature in mind—the choice of mix, day or night time, is at your discretion.

"See You Soon" - Ambient Mix XXXVI - Industrial Romantico

The loss and curse of nostalgia (Radio 80000 Part 2)

Started as equal parts research division of techno’s new frontiers, haven for the sacred and profane, and benevolent anarchy, @raarraar aims to release truly innovative music, made by and for brave sonic explorers. Each release is tied to an artwork, a poem, a story, a photograph - aiming to be a true gesamtkunstwerk.

@Pawas explores contrast and connection on Balance, a two-track EP that highlights his versatility as a producer. “BAYA,” created in Goa with Japanese artist Noriko Shakti, fuses analog synths, tabla, and vocals into a rich blend of dub, house, Detroit, and electronica. “DAYA,” made solo at home in Berlin, is a stripped-down, lo-fi reflection of recent personal transitions. Together, the tracks showcase two distinct energies—brought into harmony through Pawas’ thoughtful, textured sound.
