Matured along a path paved with hip hop, Victor Crezée became a DJ whose sound could be considered truly coast-to-coast — beyond genre and never daft. We got to know Crezée through his collage-like radio shows where high-contrast music is cut, juxtaposed and narrated with film snippets. We share being suckers for Dutch Westcoast and MF DOOM, so we are happy to add Victor to our RUBBER TIJD series with a mix full of piss and vinegar.

Stay flexible, XR

JUZER by Beau Wanzer and Dan Jugel finds new stomping grounds at RUBBER with a four track release including a fresh remix by Unit Moebius Anonymous. Wanzer and Jugel, two pillars of the Chicago underground are known for their distor­ted jacked techno which is heavily rooted in the Chicago tradition.
Together with Beau Wanzer we have selected three archival tracks made prior to Jugel’s passing in 2018. The result is a grinding ensemble of raw techno jams that tips its hat to the different electronic flavors of Chicago and The Hague.

JUZER - Layer of Moleman (w/ Unit Moebius Anonymous Remix) | RUBBER 009

As we sleigh into the holiday season, we pick up our tradition of putting out a Christmas special. A potent elixir of Xperimental and dark-not-dark specialties to bring some glow into everybody’s living room.

This year we are amped to share with you a mix quite close to home, The Westcoast to be precise. This year’s Christmas soundtrack is crafted by the North Sea Wolfpack, a femme collective of musicians, artists, creators, and producers that share a common love for sound in all its forms, and through their collective effort elevate one another and the (electronic) music scene.

The North Sea Wolfpack created a mix which is a collective effort of their members’ input resulting in an hour of cult-y off-beat carols and odes to this particular moment of the year. And of course a noteworthy mentioning Alina Valentina's secret stash that was added to the mix.

Have a flexible holiday!

p.s. the views expressed by the songs' artists are not necessarily our own — we wish everybody to keep their sofa.

Rubber welcomes Swedish artist Towa Isling (towLie) under her skitungen alias. While some of you might be familiar with distorted drums and seething synth lines from the käfTen records founder, her skitungen project emits a more brazen energy. Längre än Långtån embodies Towa’s raw and DIY approach, but takes an unexpected turn towards the odd and dreamy. This results in a beautiful assembly combining Towa’s ethereal voice with satisfying weirdo beat music.
The 7inch, pressed on Rubber’s signature high quality white vinyl, is accompanied by a cover designed by Berlin-based multi media artist Puck Verkade.

Ton Lebbink - Wat Doe Je Met Me? | RUBBER 011

A1 - Wat Doe Je Met Me?
A2 - Denke Nie Gedacht Zu Haben (Ft. Christine & Jasmine)
B1 - For You 

By the late 1980’s Ton Lebbink was a well respected figure in Amsterdam’s alternative scene: he was the drummer for the Amsterdam post punk group Mecano, a true punk poet and worked as a bouncer at Amsterdam’s main music venue Paradiso. He released two solo albums, both in his unique narcotic style: laying absurd Dutch wordplay over stripped down frigid instrumentals.
As the decade came to an end, Ton – already well in his forties – moved away from the often destructive and dangerous nightlife. After a series of odd jobs Ton started as a fitness instructor at an Amsterdam gym called Splash. Meanwhile, the 90’s brought the latest musical craze to Amsterdam: house music began to flourish through clubs like RoXy, iT and Mazzo. With house being the ideal score for his fitness classes, the once well known cult figure faded into anonymity at a 120 beats per minute. His musical endeavours were focusing more on finding the right beats for aerobics exercises with self-devised exercise – eventually leading Ton to bootleg some of them on cassette tapes himself.
In parallel to this radical shift, Ton did not stop making music. On the contrary, piles of demos showed high activity but in a direction no one was looking. Inspired by music to move to, Ton recorded hours of music that activated the body while staying true to his playful mindset. Discarding his voice as an instrument, the Roland W-30 sampler became his tool to communicate. Gathering vocal snippets from close friends, barflies and pets, a repertoire developed where witty repetitiveness could exist. Going through a vast collection of demos, pictures and many anecdotes, Rubber has been able to create an EP that gives insight into Ton’s overlooked 90’s era.
Three playful dance tracks by Ton Lebbink taking his complete own take on the Amsterdam house revolution of the 90's. Full of inventiveness: hip-shaking grooves, hypnotic beats and rousing vocals. Tracks to move to and tracks to groove to. Essential dancefloor workout tunes for you and me. Ah yeah!

Introducing World of Rubber 4, a bold compilation featuring five cutting-edge tracks from trailblazing artists who push the boundaries of sound and embrace the label's signature non-conformity. This collection showcases a wide sonic spectrum, from experimental vocal pieces to club ready floor killers. 
With work of Indonesia’s Senyawa, where vocalist Rully Shabara’s electrifying range blends with Wukir Suryadi’s processing of (handmade) instruments. Hailing From the UK, MAP71 offers hypnotic poetry layered over pulsating electronics, driven by Lisa Jayne’s surreal lyricism and Andy Pyne’s ritualistic rhythms. Swedish experimental techno producer Peder Mannerfelt brings his raw energy and genre-defying sound. Dutch techno pioneer Unit Moebius Anonymous takes a second stab at Juzer, a project by Beau Wanzer and Dan Jugel, delivering heavy hitting industrial-tinged rhythms. Lastly, The Modern Institute brings their avant-garde, deconstructed take on techno, blending industrial noise and playful experimentation to create a truly unpredictable sonic experience.

Our third vinyl release lands just before the close of the year and it is a special one. Petros Spatharos leads with a set of bangers distilling perfectly the sound of the label. Athens-based artist is widely known for his dark, immersive industrial sound, so yeah expect nothing less.

Side A starts with ”Datura”, layering heavy drums with dark reeses and syncopations - solid stuff. ”Xorkia” is an eyes-down track which will keep you in the zone with stellar percussion and atmosphere. ”Vultures” closes the first side with higher energy levels and more distinct breakbeat elements.

On Side B, Randstad remixes ”Datura” and pumps up the tempo to create a mind-bending industrial electro track with aggressive synths. Boris Barksdale wrap-ups the physical release by remixing ”Xorkia” and changing the core to techno while reworking percussion to create an industrial heavy-hitter track.

On top of this, ”Reformer” from Petros Spatharos has been added to the release as a digital bonus which you can download exclusively from our Bandcamp page.

Distribution by @clone-distribution

Release notes by Hannah Pezzack @hannah-pezzack

Reuniting as a trifecta, J A returns to Rubber with a three-pronged EP. This time, Andrea Noce and Jonida Prifti are joined by Donato Dozzy—the Italian maestro of minimal techno, who threads liquid geometry into the pair’s vocal acrobatics.

Like a silver fog descending, ‘Eclisse Indolente’ opens. Not quite ambient—with field recording-esque emanations filling the backdrop—the spoken lyrics are moonlit incantations, spells for a mid-winter ritual. ‘Era Vitale’ showcases Dozzy’s hypnotic latticework in full effect, the operatic accompaniment gliding over a twitching beat. For the titular track—its thundering power a homage to the sound system—blasts of cold bass interject at intervals; a muted post-dub tirade, narrated by fractured, echoing whispers.

Building on their previous album for the imprint, enter ja, which leaned more instrumentally maximalist, this incarnation shifts to subtle, mesmerising sonics that let the lyrical prowess surge forth. A testament to the mystical nature of the voice, Sorella di Confine is pagan-folk for the club; a lunar chant, an ebony hymn.

The record serves as a sister release to Prifti’s eponymous poetry collection, published in 2024 by Marco Saya Edizioni. An extract from the collection’s afterword appears on the back sleeve, penned by the renowned lyricist, playwright, poet, and novelist Pasquale Panella.

Plafond 6 — Cucina Povera & Haron (LP)

Vinyl/digital: bakk.bandcamp.com/album/plafond-6
Vinyl/distribution (Clone): https://clone.nl/item59834.html

A	Cucina Povera & Haron — Riffittelyä (21:43)
B1	Haron — Maandag, Spiegeldag (6:47)
B2	Cucina Povera — Ajatus (9:26)

Plafond enters its second decade with Cucina Povera and Haron fusing the folkloric and futurist. Maria Rossi and Haron Aumaj (real names) honour musical cinematism on ‘Riffittelyä’, which slowly unfolds during a twenty-two minute trail of exploration, angst and redemption. Meddling voices pinch through an aural mist, Kubrickesque strings impend and cathedral organs relevate. Most striking is the compatibility of Rossi’s tangibility and Aumaj’s computerisation, seamlessly forming a renewed dynamic, as granular as it is loose in texture.

During this unique first collaboration it can be quickly forgotten both artists have highly distinctive styles. We are reminded of these singularities on the other half of the record, featuring two solo works, both rich yet contrasting in their colour and emotion. On ‘Maandag, Spiegeldag’, Aumaj sketches in orange chromatics, a featherweight composition that feels far away from the greyscale fragility that Rossi portrays on ‘Ajatus’. Showcasing two minimalist artists catapulted by their stunning debut albums, this sixth Plafond keeps the listener in constant awe, pointing us to the endless potential of spontaneity.

Comes in Pantone printed outer sleeve with deep red and yellow topped with a silk screened black and a soft pink inner sleeve, wrapped in a dreamy blue Obi-strip printed with white and black, by the BAKK Fuzz Factory.

Randstad @ HÖR Berlin / October 28 - 2020

Our yearly Christmas special is here again. A mix of experimental and non mainstream holiday music to lift the spirit. 

Much can be said about this years Christmas, or this year for that matter. However, I think we can all agree that music and other forms of creative expression turned out to be even more valuable than we thought. 
Because a lot of us will be celebrating Christmas in isolation we've decided to make this mix for you and made by you. The track selection for this years mix has been largely provided by the lovely people in the 'strange music from beyond' online community. If we can't celebrate together, let's create together.

After a short holiday break we are happy to share the next Rubber Tijd with you. We warmly welcome our first artist of the year and number 81 on the show: Eddie Peake. 

For this podcast Peake presents Memory Cycle 2, an audio piece from a series of sound works he has been making in recent years.

“They are an attempt to recreate as definitive recordings the live DJ sets I play in my performance work. Whereas in my performances they are ephemeral and reactive, here they are somewhat more calculated, although in both instances, chance and coincidence is important. They are collages of looping motifs drawn from a palette of original recordings, voice memos and field-recordings to evoke a sense of nostalgia, the subjective and inaccurate nature of memories, the repetitive and spiralling ideation of an obsessive or psychopathic mind.”

Eddie Peake is a London based Artist and DJ and his work includes performance, video, photography, painting, sculpture, sound and installation. It has tended to take the form of non-linear, immersive exhibitions, usually presented as a web of incongruously and yet inextricably connected discrete objects. Looping or repetitive forms are a prominent element, as is the theme of the inadequacy of verbal language in representing phenomena such as emotions, memories or modes of communication which are not verbal. Another of its foci is the implicit drama within relationships between people, whether they are familial, professional, romantic, sexual or social, and how desire, sexuality, socio-political and cultural constructs, as well as psychological states such as depression impact on them. Peake also DJs under a pseudonym and runs a record label imprint called Hymn.

We are very happy to have him on the team and hope you enjoy Memory Cycle 2.

Stay flexible!
