So Friggin Awesome, I Weep  ;p.... Like Yaahhh Baby...!!

Our 1st party at Corsica Studios (kick starting a long time partnership with the venue) delivered this line-up back in April 2008. Really varied in styles in both  rooms but it definitely worked and was a great night all round. 

This is a 5am main room full hardware electro assault from the mighty Kronos Device AKA Bass Junkie and Dexorcist, 2 guys who are still to this day very much good friends of ours. Sometimes it was pretty easy putting nights on like this as we had a constant stream of highly talented mates producing or DJ'ing which made curating line-ups a doddle (sometimes!)

Unfortunately most of this nights recordings didn't make it due to a certain someone being too messy and hardware failure, only DJ Pete's and this one was salvaged from the wav wreckage!

https://soundcloud.com/ninechecker

Ninechecker grew up in northern England, far away from anything cool. 
Attracted to the heavier, more underground sounds of late 90’s Jungle, Techno and Electro, he regularly attended the legendary Liverpool club night Voodoo and Bugged Out! fell in love with watching Dave Clarke destroy dancefloors. 
After years spent dancing it up London and then Berlin, Ninechecker settled in Toronto, Canada, reassembling his small studio and got on with producing his own flavour of Electro, with dashes of Bleep Techno, Miami Bass booms, broken drum machines and atmospheric sauce from his secret-sauce bottle. 
He’s released on Varial Records, Zodiac Wax, Supercomputer AV, Orson and forthcoming on Brokntoys. 
You might also catch his live hardware set currently being road-tested around Toronto and its neighboring cities.

Tracklistings Presents Episode #009 (2023.12.11) : CHP Recordings

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The ninth episode, dedicated to the famous US Electro label "CHP Recordings", is mixed by its boss himself : Grow (@adamgrow).

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Florida based electro DJ and producer Grow (Adam Wilson) established CHP Recordings in 2007 with his debut vinyl release “Electronik Milk” which featured two original tracks and a remix by BFX that were all very well received by the electro community and all 1000 copies were sold. Since then, CHP Recordings has continued producing cutting edge electro music known for breaking the rules of tradition, and boasting creative ventures by all of the artists who have released under with them. Many well-known electro artists such as Fleck ESC, Ohverclock (Kounterakt of Code Rising and Grow’s band), R21, DVS NME, Anthony Nuzzo, N-Ter, Dwellz, Pip Williams (of London Modular Alliance), EKATA, Prototype, Morphogenetic, Phonotronix, Shadowbunny, and Code Rising. Over the past year Dirtybird recording artist, Mark Starr, has become the label manager and one of the key producers in new releases. He has already dropped 2 very well received remixes both charting very high on Beatport and staying there for a long amount of time, has another about to drop in late December (it can be heard in this mix) and has his first solo ep for CHP, [CHP042 Mark Starr – Body Control], slated to drop in January of 2024 (one of the tracks is also in this mix). The other key player in this next generation of CHP music is Cyborg Rhetoric who just dropped his debut 12 track album after a slew of very well received eps and remixes. Cyborg Rhetoric (Dan Cella) and Mark Starr have taken the reigns along with Grow for this next phase of CHP’s music and are dead set on elevating the label’s reach and keeping the content flowing on a very consistent high-quality basis. There have been talks with other fresh new artists who are interested in joining forces with the label so stay tuned as they are just getting started.

Kraftwerk Non Stop (74-86) - A Bass Junkie Megamix

Chris Roman, aka 214, has a habit of getting lost in his studio, which happens to be tucked into the same mystical foothills as the David Lynch town of Twin Peaks, a location whose presence looms across much of Roman’s audio narrative, deftly playing foil to his creative heritage as a Miami native grounded in that area’s electro scene. 

Since his production debut in 2002 Roman has cultivated a substantial discography of future dance floor thump and heady sci fi vapors with releases on notable labels such as Frustrated Funk, Klakson, Central Processing Unit (CPU), Shipwrec, 20:20 Vision, and Touchin Bass. He's also appeared on three Fabric compilations, including an exclusive track commissioned for Steffi’s highly lauded Fabric 94 mix. 

Though clubs all over the world have hosted 214’s hardware-heavy live sets,including 3 performances at acclaimed Berghain, he’s also known for working dance floors with dexterous precision for anyone lucky enough to catch him behind the decks.  

214’s upcoming projects include EPs for Frustrated Funk and a Science Cult V/A.

Exterminate Rational Thought

Anyone looking for Bass Junkie product or any other affiliated releases, you can contact me on here or email: phil@bassjunkie.com. 

He thought it could do no harm, he only wanted to try it once - just to experience it, how was he to know that after the first fix his life would be forever dependant upon this substance, how was he to know that from the moment the needle touched the record he would become a fully fledged Bass Junkie. 

Bingeing on heavy doses of 808 kicks and robotic licks Phil soon invested in two turntables, speakers and a mixer to help feed his insatiable craving for electro and Miami Bass. Before long the Bass Junkie had tested almost every vinyl product on the street, this consumption did not satisfy his habit so in 1987 Phil began to manufacture his own supply 

In his suburban laboratory the Bass Junkie spent many hours testing his own medicine, cutting finely-tuned frequencies, chopping them with pure bass and then mixing in raw, uncut beats, leaving loudspeakers smoking and equalizers peaking. Other addicts were keen to sample the Bass Junkie product and Phil was soon involved with some heavy mobs interested in trafficking his trax including Dynamix II who invited him to Miami for a 3 month bender of Miami Electro Bass in the early `90s. 

With addicts worldwide attempting to score his dope beats, in 1996 Phil began Battle Trax to distribute his brutal brand of bass-fuelled beats. Kids were soon overdosing on large doses of Cybernet Systems, Final Dreams, Industrial Bass Machines and Kronos Devices - all variants of the highly addictive Bass Junkie, traces of which have also been found in other lethal labels including Audio Illusion, Control Tower, Breakin`, Joey Boy, SMB, Touchin` Bass, Remote Audio, Firewire, RGC, Fuel, Satamile, Cyberian Knights Recordings, Electrix, Parallax, Panic Trax, Tellektro, Tranzform, [k]rack-troni[k], Rotters Golf Club, X0X and Dynamix II Records. If you have a problem with low frequency addictions help is at hand, just visit www.bassjunkie.com where our highly trained team are on call to help you kick the habit and rehabilitate yourself seamlessly back into your society.
Bass Junkie is available for DJ & live performances as well as remix work.
