Festive season special podcast from Beau Wanzer himself. Just wanted to thank you all for the great 2015 we had. Enjoy!

Beau Wanzer grew up moving between the states of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. Dressed in black the teenage Wanzer would brave the deep southern heat visiting record stores to purchase CDs with the most whacked out album covers. This methodology led him to the works of Skinny Puppy, Sleep Chamber, Absolute Body Control and a host of other industrial, noise and punk bands. Whilst Wanzer played guitar in bands for over eight years he bought his first synthesiser, a Roland Juno-6 at the end of the 1990s and began creating his own synth music. A short while later he moved to Chicago to study molecular biology and began working at Weekend Records & Soap in 2001. It wasn’t until a couple of years later that he began to consider the possibility of releasing his music following a friendship with Melvin Oliphant III, a.k.a. Traxx. The two recorded music together as Mutant Beat Dance and Wanzer’s first solo piece, ‘F.U. Klaxon’ came out on Traxx’ Nation record label in 2008. Wanzer participates in frequent collaborations exploring various aspects of noise and sound, for example creating rhythmic techno as Civil Duty with Sean O’Sullivan and somewhat raucous synth & electro with Elon Katz under the Streetwalker moniker, a project which saw the release of an album on Cititrax in 2013. Wanzer has released a variety of music under his own name across labels such as L.I.E.S. Russian Torrent Versions and his own imprint BW, secreting grotty synth and drum machine workouts, not quite techno, not quite punk but scuzzy mutant hybrids of the two. Wanzer released his debut album on BW in October 2014. Music for the lost and the damned and those that want to be.

Influential “ambassador of distant intimacy” from Tromsø, techno capital of Norway, Charlotte Bendiks releases double A-side of hypnotic techno for Matthew Herbert’s Accidental Jnr label.

“Bon-Sexy” is an eloquent expression of the deep and dark “body music” aimed directly at the dancefloor.  Boldly confident and fully present, it playfully assembles into a vibrant, passionately engaging and unapologetic temptation.

CNDBMLE 005: 404 - off course

The first ABCD’s digital label release is entirely dedicated to the phenomenon of Izhevsk electronic music. It wholly - is an experiment where contemporary musicians reinterpret the heritage of Izhevsk perestroika era pioneers.
In the early '90s no matter what - a shoegaze-bands, playing their guitars with screwdrivers or an extraordinary proto-tryp-hop music - all bar none become a musical discovery, extolling the unknown factory town as the capital of electronic music.
"New Day of the Week", performed by ‘Intourist’, sounds as if it was recored by Eugene Gorbunov himself, instead of pioneers of the Russian shoegaze ‘Velvet And Velvet Dolls’ in '92.
Ufa resident Molodoy Chelovek, turns ‘Samchov Dronda’s” dark ambient "Vogel" into a techno anthem for empty factories, where now the roar of machines switches to the rhythms of drums.
‘Rites Of Passage’ - a solo project of an improvisation orchestra ‘Electric Dog’ member, comprehends the original "I, you, my reptile" by ‘Beautiful Coming’ as a gloomy echo of an industrial city.
And the young producers Caprithy and Kstcn's dou, tightly pours acid inwards ‘Virgo Intacta’ experemental electronics.
The record which will bring you back to the early 90s into the magic world of Izhevsk electronic wave is out 28th october,  you can buy here: https://abcdlabel.bandcamp.com/album/001

PREMIERE #646 | Rites Of Passage - Ты, Я, Рептилия (Красивая Пришла cover) [ABCD] 2019

Canadian producer RAMZi gives us another glimpse into her magical world on her new album Multiquest Niveau 1: Camouflé, recently released on her own FATi Records imprint. In similar fashion to her offerings for 12th Isle and Mood Hut, she paints an extraordinary sound palette of everything from breaks and acid to Balearic and experimental. We've got the official video premiere for 'Attak Mousaillon', check it out below...

"This video represents hope for resistance hidden in the decadence of the zombies world. The main protagonists of the RAMZi world, who are the children and the animals, are as always teaming together to trick, and this time, poison the zombies in their morbidity.

This music video is the continuation of a Federico Lamas’s VJset made for RAMZi 's live show at MUTEK Buenos Aires in 2019. Federico's video-installations, animations and illustrations always works through irony. A funny troy horse full of recycled darkness."

PREMIERE: RAMZi - Attak Mousaillon [FATi Records]
