Return match! After featuring Cycom and Buzz on his own imprint Syncopathic, we happily present Sub's first release on our humble platform. For our first output of this year, we chose three tracks that we think represent the Innsbruck school of Drum and Breaks.
And if that wasn't enough, Kent's notorious mastering engineer and pickle lover Bob "Macc" Macciochi twiddled with some knobs to make the good music sound ridiculous. Happy New Year!

The Monk Tune

"Plain" means clear and concise - it is literally defined as "simple" and "without pattern" - yet we refuse to be pushed into a corner. Far from extroverted boasts and show-off attitudes, we want indepedence, confidence and originality - music that speaks for itself.

Plain Productions was founded in 2001 by Manu Harmilapi. The label started with vinyl-releases of Cycom ("Void") and Barth ("Schizophrenic") and soon evolved into one of Germany's most break-dominant Drum'n'Bass labels.
2005 saw a relaunch of Plain Productions as "Plainaudio". Splitting up its label catalogue into three different categories, Plainaudio became an outlet for Leftfield Drum'n'Bass, electronic and experimental music on a free CC-license basis featuring an ever since growing roster of artists, from Reinforced legend Alpha Omega to Lithuania's brilliant IJO, from N-Noize's Photek reminiscense to Wales' wizard UV, from Austrian Simon/Off's Coffeehouse-Dubstep to the warm-cold-warm musings of Repetition|Distract.

The expansion of Plainaudio's catalogue to include Techno and experimental music was not only based upon our experiences with 4/4-beats, but on the idea of bridging the gap between Drum'n'Bass and other styles of Electronica that we like. This has allowed us to break free from stereotypes and at the same time offered a broader range of music - just plain.
