Episode 1, the first reference of Onna Bushi Records, marks the debut of the new independent label.
Available in digital format and in a vinyl limited edition, this release presents the first chapter of a saga that begins with a solo EP by label founder, Dinamite. 
With three devastating tracks, a powerful, strong and dark epic, and a sonic journey of marked tones and textures, Episode 1 reveals the first signs of a singular mystique.
This is how Dinamite begins the show, the curtain falling loudly, the result? An essential album for techno lovers, who, after listening to it will want to run to the clubs or why not, teleport.

Kribs - Hybride

On this first release on Lømsk Records, four characterful & sly tracks reside.

Starting with “Greven”, its focus is on an eroding & melodic synth line, with pulsating & abundant drums and clattering hi-hat patterns. Next comes “Skamsen” twisting things with wriggle-inducing detuned polyrhythmic sequences & straight machine funk. With the two tracks on the B-side, things take a shifty turn with the first one being the nervous “Svett”, a sweaty energy entity with haunting reverse elements. The record rounds off with “40W”, a hysterical action-filled no-nonsense track rooted in classic dance-floor action. 

About Lømsk Records:

Lømsk Records, masterminded by Alexander Johansson & Mattias Fridell, is dedicated to our own musical output, is firmly rooted in the mindset and spirit of utilizing a somewhat playful & mischievous, but always genuine, approach to the concept of underground dance music and as a label.

An approach that is faithful & influenced by the characteristics of old Swedish labels & artists we were inspired by as young techno enthusiasts. These are also components we often feel are deprived in the world of contemporary electronic music. And when something is repressed it’s natural to seek to add to it. FillIng the vacuum.

It’s equal parts being faithful as well as paying homage to an idea & spirit that we revere, both then and now. We believe molding the mentality from the past with our current devotion to electronic music is the ideal direction for us. The name itself spins on this, “lömsk” roughly translates to “sneaky” “sly” or “shifty”. You may rely on us.
