The year has been very quiet so far regarding releases. But before the year comes to an end, Tripedal Crow Records introduce their new vinyl lathe cut series: 'DARKPLATE', first heavy edition hitting the frontlines in November. Like the 'ROOTPLATE', cut onto 60 pieces of transparent 10' vinyl by Pressure Mastering, each edition of this series also gets the personal hand-labeling & numbering treatment by JahYu. Pre-order for the physical as well as the digital version will be available from 18th November, exclusively on their Bandcamp. The full release follows a week later on 25th November - better mark it in your calendar - the 10' cuts will be gone sooner rather than later. Encompassing the release are two massive cuts, both by JahYu. Each with his signature technique and fashion - but in a new invigorating drive.

After JahYu himself was attacked by German neo-Nazis not the first time in his life, but recently earlier this year, here came an attempt to process his dark side on the one hand and empower himself on the other. The product is 'No Mercy For Fascists', a deeper dub-influenced track with a driving bass that seems to sweep aside everything in its path and is made to push any sound system to the limit. And 'Azalea' on the other hand, which is more likely to please the Junglists among you, radically beautiful like an azalea that puts its roots in the ground and makes it vibrate - for empowerment, but not to lose your footing.

For label-head JahYu and his very own Tripedal Crow Records the message is quite clear. No fascism ever again and nowhere! This release is dedicated to all people who still suffer from this inhuman ideology today. And everyone suffers from it in different ways - only we all can fight this detestable system of racism together and empower ourselves to do so.

DEN SORTE SKOLE - LEKTION #1 (2005)

Happy New Year, you dirty little rascals. We are honoured to open 2025 with a special sequel in the Reptilian Mixes Saga: the very first recording of @atawel's live act.

Since the release of his Colors EP on 129 rec, our boi Raph has been fine-tuning his long-awaited live debut. The reptile farmer performed across multiple venues in Europe, with recent highlights ranging from the upper deck of our favourite Berlin boat, to deep in the ravy woods of the Cévennes. 

Take the middle row seat, grab your pop corn (sweet and salty), and don't skip the trailers. 

No director's cut but you can now listen to 192R-002 endlessly on your favourite streaming platform, and grab it digitally here: https://192rec.bandcamp.com/album/192r-002

Sultry low-end grooves from a rising house enchantress.

"What kind of music do I actually want to play?" Every artist asks themselves this at some point in their career. What is a sound? And why do we personally identify with it? For Lea Lang, AKA dj sweet6teen, this question is the guiding force behind her RA Mix.

Born in Aachen, a German spa city close to the border with Belgium, Lang found her musical feet in the vibrant student hub of Cologne. It was while studying social work at the Technische Hochschule that she fell into the nightlife scene. 

Finding her sound wasn't an instant process. Lang cut her teeth on breaks-heavy house and prog (think Angel D'Lite), traces of which you can hear peppered across RA.1004. But as she explains in this week's Q&A, the pandemic years were, musically, a turning point. 

"High BPMs and short-lived trends became very dominant and I realised I couldn't stand the pace anymore," she writes. "That's when my sound naturally shifted into something more minimalist and timeless."

Nowadays, you'll find Lang in Berlin during the week, and on weekends… well, take your pick. A busy touring schedule means she's on the road almost constantly —this summer she's debuted at Horst Arts & Music, Butik, Dimensions and Panorama Bar (to name just a few). 

And her RA Mix? It oozes charm from the jump. Buoyant with gyrating low-end, it's hard to think her sound was ever anything else: vocals twirl around analogue basslines, material à la Eddie Richards and Terry Francis's historic Wiggle parties, as well as the kind of bongo action that wouldn't feel out of place in an Apollonia session. Call it waft, wiggle, smooch house—whatever it is, we like it.

Peace

A secret place full of peace opens up to you today. Welcome!
Come in and explore the beauty of life - step after step.
Yes, it becomes wider and wider the more you follow the path. 

You take a break and just perceive what surrounds you - everything is calmly in existence. The same goes for you. You rest. You accept. You can see the beauty all around you flourishing. The same goes for you. What separates the beauty of life from your self? What is the difference? You can see the beauty, but you can’t see your self. Your self is not part of the obvious. But it is there, within the beauty of life, flourishing like nature, but you don’t see it. Now what? 

Close your eyes. 

Breathe in.

Breathe out.

You can feel it. All life around you, and your self within. Life is within you. You are life. What you see is your self. Everywhere you look around. Every butterfly softly landing on a beautiful flower, it is your self. 

...

Welcome to peace and paradise.

As inspiration to approach your own life, you can experience the frequency of such a life journey by listening to the creation of Adrian Forstbach’s reflection of life with his release of ESD’s 30th edition.

Endless appreciation for the courage of this soul to be open and contribute to our most precious condition, being peace - thank you, Adrian! @adrian-forstbach
