TEMPLEOFJOY 108 - BAD RUSSIAN BITCHEZ

Black February, like a disastrous swampy tar, flows into a gaping catastrophe in March. Today, Moloch is our frozen cry and farewell letter on the fourteenth day of an all-consuming slaughter.

This Saturday 03.12.2022 we will play the our final show, which will be the last for No Sex.

All funds raised from admission tickets and digital sales will be sent to humanitarian missions in the war zone.

Recorded & Mixed at Pentagram Studio by Igor Butz.

NO SEX — МОЛОХ

The frozen sensation of an impenetrable fog slowly spreads through the body sending it into an oily drift. The loose ruts of internal decay glue the fading echo in the gelatinous honeycomb of silver moss. In the floating reservoirs of vulnerability, those little lumps of grief that have detached themselves from the walls to perish in a frenzied obsession, succumb to the undulating nothingness.

The garden that @constance-heleda cultivates is at once beguiling and alienating, for beneath the satin sky, the pits have already been dug, where the sweat of the earth anxiously gurgles, and within the trees a distorted digital plea still pulsates. What fruits do the wind pluck from their branches, and do they ooze blessings or curses? Can we gather them together for eternity to find or lose peace?

TEMPLEOFJOY 116 - COSTA

Little VANYA is a DJ hailing from Kyiv, spinning an eclectic mix of breakbeat, broken techno, and tracks with a hint of playful madness. VANYA’s journey began in the underground scenes of New York and Detroit, where they immersed themselves in the full spectrum of electronic music. Now based in Berlin, @lilvanya curates the @s_a_l_0 parties, a unique fusion of the raw, pulsating energy of Kyiv and the cutting-edge vibes of Berlin.

TEMPLEOFJOY 120 - LITTLE VANYA

In November 2024, Temple Of Joy celebrates nine years of ecstatic whirling. To mark the occasion, we're releasing a compilation titled Eros As Gnosis—a collection that captures the intense transformations shaping our nights.

The first taste of this collection is Path by Swedish band Alvar, masters of proto-EBM and darkwave. Hailing from the depths of Stockholm, Alvar has repeatedly submerged our dancefloors in grinding metallic rhythms, dissolving dancers into a heavy mist where the pulse of machinery meets the murmur of emptiness.

Path is now available on our Bandcamp page: https://templeofjoy.bandcamp.com/album/eros-as-gnosis 

Stay tuned for the full release of Eros As Gnosis, a journey through the Temple of Joy where the physical and spiritual are entwined, and profound truths unfold as revelations, marking this ninth year.

We’re just 9 days away from the release of Eros As Gnosis! Today, in anticipation of the compilation’s unveiling, we’re excited to share Glovebox—a secret knowledge gifted to us by our friend @kerrilebon from Oakland, California.

As the mastermind behind the Bay Area’s Discipline parties—spiritual kin to JOY—Kerri’s DJ experiments and productions traverse the realms of refined EBM and individualistic electro. Yet, at the core of it all lies the icy pulse of Detroit techno, a presence felt unmistakably in Glovebox, her contribution to the Temple of Joy.

Stay tuned for more secrets as we approach the December 6 release of Eros As Gnosis!

The Temple of Joy premiere marathon continues! Today, we’re thrilled to present Everyone Stuck In The Loop—a track from Belgian-German industrial and rhythmic noise pioneer Hypnoskull, featured on our upcoming compilation, Eros As Gnosis.

A cornerstone of the power electronics scene since the early ’90s, Patrick Stevens, aka @hypnoskull, walks the razor-thin line of harsh analog noise and anarchic sonic assaults. His contribution, a tribute to JOY, captures the raw energy of these journeys.

Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the full release of Eros As Gnosis on December 6.

Today, we are thrilled to present the work of Detroit-based artist @podblotz, created especially for our compilation in honor of JOY's ninth anniversary.

Object Decay continues Pod Blotz's post-humanist explorations through  syncopated static and pulse—a practice she has honed masterfully over the past 22 years.

With less than 48 hours until the release of Eros As Gnosis, we continue to unravel the threads that weave this compilation together.

Today, we’re thrilled to present The Texture of Stone—a lethal dose of dysfunctional post-punk from our longtime ally, Ireland’s Autumns.

Since launching in 2014 on the legendary Downwards Records, @autumns has unleashed a relentless torrent of transgressive noise and furious electronic punk, all framed by icy, metallic rhythms. This potent fusion continues to resonate deeply with lunatics like us.

Autumns’ The Texture of Stone is now available on our Bandcamp page. Welcome to the Temple of Joy—and its sonic arsenal, Eros As Gnosis, officially releasing December 6th.

Autumns - The Texture of Stone

You may know him as the razor-sharp and magnetic vocalist of New York’s  @uniform_nyc, a performer whose raw vulnerability leaves an indelible mark on anyone who has witnessed him live. But beyond his phenomenal stage presence, Michael Berdan is also a prolific electronic artist, creating under his real name and aliases like Canal Street Electronics and Deep Red.

It’s under Deep Red that Michael contributes to Eros As Gnosis, delivering the haunting Fear of Sex. As the final premiere from our compilation, his track sets the stage for tomorrow’s full release—December 6, 2024.

Deep Red - Fear of Sex

By day, he’s the drummer of the sludge/doom band ⒶRA. By night, he transforms into Chaosy—a fearless conjurer of distorted noise phantasms, channeling a time vortex that feels almost impossible to escape.

Hailing from Kyiv and now based in Berlin,  Bohdan Temchenko (aka Chaosy) is gearing up for his live debut at the Eros As Gnosis release party. To mark the occasion, Chaosy has gifted Temple of Joy an hour-long mixtape of his live jams, mastered in collaboration with gg.od1.

This Thursday, December 12th, at Sameheads, dive headfirst into Chaosy’s analog maelstrom—a collision of cave techno & electro inspired by The Hague’s bunker scene, Ukrainian grinding rap, and echoes of black metal that have haunted him since birth.

TEMPLEOFJOY 123 - CHAOSY

The debut compilation from the freshly launched label dissontiya blends raw and shadowy soundscapes. 16 tracks, 16 artists — channeling new energy into the breakbeat and electronic scenes.

Each track is a weave of backgrounds, emotions, and personal quests. The compilation unfolds a story of raw feeling — revealed through sound that's at times harsh, at times mystical, but always alive.

Autocannibal is a self-taught multi-instrumentalist who is “sculpted from scorched circuits and broken beats”.

Working from the abyss of dark electro, Autocannibal stitches together tormented drum machines with warped synths and battered samples. The music draws influences from witchcore, dungeon synth, and experimental IDM, the sound is haunted and unrepentantly bleak - a ritual of decay fed through wires and noise.

TOJ Premiere 01: Autocannibal - Post Glaucoma

Ex.Hale is the brainchild of Italian multi-disciplinary artist Francesco Presotto. 
Ex. Hale’s music is characterised by dark, atmospheric textures that is driven by a modern vision of club music. The project is focused on the deconstruction of common compositional standards with the addition of crushing rhythm structures that establishes the unusual framework of Ex.Hale’s subversive approach. 

With releases on Sonic Groove, Rudiment, and Voidance, in addition to soundtracks for fashion runways and design companies and to an increasing number of performances in clubs, museums and festivals around Europe, @exhaleelectronics has become a formidable force in electronic and experimental music.

Глубинная экскурсия в древние подземелья Афин продолжается. В новом эпизоде самые потаенные и неизведанные уголки исследуем вместе с наследником Скотоса, принцем греческой DIY-сцены — Morah. 
Подкасты и вечеринки его лейбла Phormix вот уже который год укрепляют психические расстройства разношерстной паствы слушателей и единомышленников, а сольные пластинки на импринтах Return To Disorder, Brokntoys и Modal Analsys, судя по всему, обязательно войдут в исторические хроники Новой Холодной Волны.

JOY live #8: HUMANOID LUBOVNIK

Медитативный полиритмический спиритуализм в февральском лайве манчестерского провидца @karim_maas  
Апологет новой волны артистов «бристольского» саунда, рулевой лейбла @uvb76music и участник ортодоксальных драм-н-бейсеров Ruffhouse — англичанин Том Купер, всегда остается в пограничной зоне монохромных барханов, лишенных солнца, но богатых на черные радуги.
В его мире легко уживаются индустриальное техно и классический трип-хоп, ранний дабстеп и погребальный брейкбит, органично сплетенные коллажи песка и гравия, пронизанные низкочастотным туманом.

TEMPLEOFJOY 081 - KARIM MAAS

Джофф Райт, известный миру по имени Presha, — тихоокеанский драм-н-бейс сёгун, владелец и душа лейблов Samurai и Horo — уникальных юнитов, образовавших отдельный поджанр Grey Area. В прошлом фронтмен треш метал группы и старошкольный скейтбордист, промоутер и автор радиопередачи, первопроходец в самобытных электронных явлениях его родной Новой Зеландии. С начала десятых Джофф перебрался в Берлин, направив всю свою неуёмную энергию в развитие и поддержку новаторов вроде Ena, Sam KDC, Torn, ASC, Lemna — артистов определяющих отправную точку полиритмического катарсиса.

TEMPLEOFJOY 084 - PRESHA

Шрапнели хлестких релизов греческого мистификатора Джорджа Анифастиса хватило, чтобы утвердить его имя в рядах знаковых мастеров индустриальной техно сцены последнего десятилетия. Глава едкого лейбла Vanila и компаньон SAWF по проекту VOFA — к нам Анифастис прибыл в своей главной ипостаси.
Вы определенно слышали его треки в самых зловещих сетах — они всегда играют ключевую роль. Интенсивная и глубинная концентрация тьмы в дебюте ANFS на четырехлетии Храма Радости.
