Today we are proud to announce In-house label 'Another Name's second release 'Et Andet Sted Tribute Album - AN01'. A collection of 22 tracks from artists who have played or been connected to the former DIY rave club in the old vegetable market of Copenhagen, a place called “Et Andet Sted”. The release stretches out and explores the diverse outer reaches of what Copenhagen underground scene is all about, starting with distorted experiment sound, four-to-the-floor house, signature fast techno and trance euphoria.
The album comes in two fully packed CDs with the artwork which will tickle some warm memories of countless hours spent o the dancefloor of the club. The compilation album will also be available in a digital version.

CD 1: Sinners Support Team, Johannes Astrup, SUGAR - Fast Forward, Tino, Terkel Høngaard, Ctrls, Frederik Tollund, Savile, Anders Dahl, Andi Müller and AN Yunbi.
CD 2: DJ Loser, Xuri, HLLW, peachlyfe, Kasper Marott, Sisi (Ida Engelhardt) & DJ IBON, Matriark & HLLW, DJ G2G, Neri J and Mr. Free

About the club: Et Andet Sted was a unique free space for creative souls, DJ’s and ravers. The place for this sonice parallel universe existed for eith month only but it gave the birth to many new inspirations, music carriers and friendships. It was demolished due to gentrification. It is and will forever be missed.

About the label: Another Name is the in-house label of Copenhagen based nightclub: Ved siden Af, The music representing the sound of the club, the artists that frequent our space and the culture it supports.

You can order the CD and download the tracks on Bandcamp or just give it a listen on Soundcloud from Friday this week. Pre-Order at: https://anothernamevsa.bandcamp.com/album/an02-et-andet-sted-tribute

All the best

2 5 Kasper Marott  - Mini Race

Peachlyfe (they/them) is a hydra-sonic electronic musician that shook & seduced the Copenhagen fast-paced techno scene, claiming their seat along with Endurance and Fast Forward.
Peachlyfe’s productions and live-sets rebelliously weave across genres, trippy melodies cut with heavy slaps while whispering in your ear about the dismantlement of the ‘cistem’. Their EP “All Tits are Real, All Money is Fake, All Hail Satan” is an ode to that anarchic-playfulness, a marvellous feat in blending rave-rush joy and queer defiance.
In early 2022, Peachlyfe releases “Against All Reason” on marum’s and BLEID’s label suspension, a 4-chapter tale through soundscapes of glitch, trancey dunes and euphoria, a vision excitedly in synch with the wave of dancefloor reopenings. 

“Against All Reason 1” opens with a cryptic and urgent sound-manifesto that envelopes the ideas behind this release. Prompted by the central question of Susan Schupli’s documentary “Can the Sun Lie”, Peachlyfe investigates que question of “reason”, a driving-question that appears in previous releases but under different shapes - the cis-hetero patriarchy that dictates which bodies, tits or dixx, expressions or sounds are respectable (or not). Those who challenge such canons are deemed ugly, inferior, swamp monsters. And so what? Against all reason, we love the swamp!

As the tone is set, “Against All Reason 2” blows it all up. The existential question is answered through gallopant beats and progressively euphoric harmonies, nudging the body straight into a glorious dance, followed by “Dance the Day Away” that steps up the parade with their seductive pace overlaid with a mesh of sexy sounds soaked on high-tone energy and joy - undoubtedly the uplifting anthem for 2022 we all needed. 
The deep slow burn “Creature Feature” journeys through looming synths and distant vocal-echoes, eventually jolted with a punching heartbeats, creating an other-worldly trip. The perfect closure of this album that so harmoniously seems to thread conflicting feelings and sounds, making space to cheerfully embrace the unknown, against all reason.




Against All Reason

Who lies in the name of the sun? We do, we do, we do, we do! 
Who knows where the stars are supposed to be? We do, we do, we do, we do!
Would you bend the light so I seem bright? Of course, love, anything for you!
Who lies in the shade until noon? Not us, no way, we dance, all day!

How should the ass look? How should the tits feel? To where should the dixx point, if they ever point?

Your eyes will deceive you! Your ears will deceive you! Your tongue will deceive you!

Do not trust your eyes! Do not trust your eyes! Do not trust your eyes! If they get the chance, they’ll stab you in the front! There are countless examples. Just take a look!

Do not trust your memory! Do not trust your memory! Do not trust your memory! If the right moment comes, It’ll rip out your eyes! Good riddance anyway!

Smell the radio! Listen to the flowers! Taste the music! Dance the day away

Imitate yourself! Imitate others! Imitate an image! It’ll be far more trustworthy than whatever they’re showing through your local window!

Who lies in the name of the sun? We do, we do, we do, we do! 
Who knows where the stars are supposed to be? We do, we do, we do, we do!
Would you bend the light so I seem bright? Of course, love, anything for you!
Who lies in the shade until noon? Not us, no way, we dance, all day!

Against All Reason Pt. 2

In response to the horrifying invasion taking place in Ukraine, we have decided to release the debut EP of the new duo by Sugar & Peachlyfe “Ultra Harmonizer - A Different Kind Of Beast”.
It will be released on our Fast Forward Fundraiser label to create immediate funds for the Ukrainian people.

https://fastforwardproductions.bandcamp.com/album/a-different-kind-of-beast

This EP was initially set to be released around early summer, but as we are sitting here, hundreds of kilometers away, watching with agony and shock about what is happening, we need to act in the best way possible.
As artists with limited political influence and minimal resources to make a big difference, in a full-scale invasion like what we see in Ukraine, the least thing we can do is to utilize our abilities and music to contribute here and now.

Now more than ever, it is time for solidarity with the Ukrainian people and not leave them to their fate, while Russia is violently breaking international laws and creating a state of war in the region.
We all have to put pressure on our local governments, create public awareness, provide donations, and shelter the refugees fleeing the country.

All proceeds from this EP will be donated to Sunflower Of Peace (www.instagram.com/sunflowerofpeace/)
This also applies to the existing three compilations already available and the future one coming out in August.
This EP is 6€ minimum or pay what you can above this; all amounts are greatly appreciated.

You can also donate to the organization directly or many others on the links below:

Ultra Harmonizer is Sugar & Peachlyfe.

A Different Kind Of Beast EP was made during summer 2021, departing from the straightforward dancefloor sound they both are known for and into new and unknown territories.

Hyperaktivist - Try Again

The German FM synthesis wizard Luca Daniel Schwarz aka LDS (https://soundcloud.com/ldstechno) presents his upcoming release 'algo5' on the Berlin label Blue Hour Music (https://soundcloud.com/bluehour909). The EP captures a wide range of sonic ground with an innovative and futuristic edge, like our trembling and thrilling premiere pick: ‘Vone’.

After head-turning releases on Transatlantic and Monnom Black, the mysterious LDS now drops a versatile record full of playful loops, experimental beats and virtuoso melody lines. Being “currently or forever on research”, as the artist puts it, LDS is able to arouse his listeners while making them search for visionary perspectives and new meanings of music at the very same time.

‘Vone’ is the second track of the bursting B-side that propels some dynamic and cracking rhythms through the ether.

For their sixth instalment, Lowlife Cartel follow up to their last two compilations (“Pimps Improvisations” in 2018 and “Omnia Vanitas” in 2020) with a new six-track VA named “Kodoku”; a vortical release, both bold and forward-looking, while fully geared for the club environment. Taking its title from a poisonous magic from the medieval Japanese era obtained by placing several venomous insects in a jar and letting them kill one another until only one survives, “Kodoku” - which interestingly also translates as “solitude” - features a cast of producers old and new to the fold including Saverio Celestri, the faceless △, Prince de Takicardie, Tundramane & Ko$te, Solar Alliance and shampoo.

A staple element of the Lowlife Cartel bunch, Saverio Celestri paves the way and dishes out one of his signature jagged, EBM-informed weapons in “Sundays”. Through this hotchpotch of acid-steeped bass entangled with a frantic newbeat-ish swing and razor-sharp synthwaves, the Italian producer shows off the raw and playful facets of his craft to optimal effect. Unknown contributor △ clocks in with “Crachats de Lune”, a proper ominous banger going straight for the jugular with its clever mix of dusty, drum-laden churn, processed vox stabs and sci-fi-indebted laser bursts flashing by unrelentingly. Tailored for hi-octane action at the defunct Boccaccio or Hacienda, Prince de Takicardie “Jam’on’Acid (House Mix)” blows the winds of euphoria across the club like it was done in 1995. Vibing to a pulsating mix of rabid snares, 303-vehicled charges and mangled vocal samples on a classic free rave tip, throwback material that packs a punch.

Flip it over and here is North-American duo Tundramane & Ko$te shifting the scope to Memphis chopped-and-screwed in true hardcore fashion. Straight-out aggression, “Brick To The Face” lives up to its title, so expect leaving the place with a few teeth out your mouth and a good concussion, though more side effects could appear over repeated listens. A radical U-turn from the previous, Ute.-related triplet Solar Alliance - alias Ekkel, Oprofessionell and Mikkel Rev - bring their dashing trance touch to the comp with “Quest for Kiba”, an uptempo maelstrom for the senses, swirling and whirling up until space and time make no damn sense any more. Topping off that versatile tour de force, producer shampoo adds his delectably sensuous spin on the record with the lush, sample-heavy lo-fi appeal of “四季ノ歌”. Unpolished feelgood vibes, sun-streaked soulfulness and deft-handed MPC wizardry are on the menu for this ultimate ride and jolly finale.
