On Unexploded Device, Force Majeure unleashes four relentless blasts of nu-beat abrasion—industrial, high-impact cuts that collide distortion, breakbeat pressure, and militant rhythm into a fierce, uncompromising statement of mechanized intensity.

Nima :: Nima LP (PROGRAMM_LDN)
Forged in the pressure systems of London’s underground, Nima arrives not as a debut but as a bass-heavy declaration—channeling decades of inner-city innovation, sound-system lineage, and lived nocturnal experience into a record that pulses with survival, resistance, and resolve.
Man As Island :: AN (Local Gods)
AN is a prefigurative IDM suite where vulnerable imperfection and analog experimentation converge into a quietly authoritative, future-facing work that feels less like homage and more like the next chapter of electronic music unfolding in real time.
V/A :: ZEROTWO (Black Shapes)
ZEROTWO is Black Shapes’ second statement—a tightly engineered techno EP where four distinct voices sculpt smoke-drenched, late-night architectures of tension and release, balancing ferocity and control inside a fully immersive, hallucinatory soundspace.
Sematic4 :: Different Sky (Bass Agenda)
Channelling frozen tundra, sci-fi vastness and disciplined electro power, Sematic4 returns to Bass Agenda Recordings with Different Sky—a glacial, body-locking long player of pure-form machine […]
Acid Kult :: Silent Mantra EP (Perimeter Junk)
Oliver Dodd’s debut Silent Mantra EP for Perimeter Junk is a taut, club-ready statement of intent: three lean acid tools that prioritize pressure, discipline, and groove over spectacle, letting controlled tension and physical rhythm speak louder than excess.
Hellacopta :: Collapse EP (Onset Audio)
Hellacopta’s Collapse EP on Onset Audio is a ferocious 118 BPM industrial punk-funk statement—half-time, machine-tooled techno that balances surgical control with explosive, rib-rattling chaos.
James Shinra :: Shinra Electro Company Vol 2 (Shinra Electro Company)
James Shinra stands with one foot deep in electro’s 45-year lineage and the other stepping boldly forward, delivering a fiercely physical yet future-facing EP that treats tradition as fuel, not refuge.
shizukesa :: destroy//destroy (Self Released)
shizukesa’s destroy//destroy reframes lo-fi as a disciplined study in motion and restraint, where stuttering rhythms, minimal structures, and carefully rationed momentum turn negative space into the record’s primary expressive force.
Florian Förster :: Tyche (Pulse State)
From its opening seconds, Tyche establishes Florian Förster as a producer of rare fluency and restraint, delivering deeply crafted funk and machine soul with a calm, assured authority that never reaches for effect, only precision.
Melisa Aller :: DESTRUKTION (Clara / Blattklang)
Melisa Aller’s DESTRUKTION manifests as a hostile, future-ruined sonic environment where precision sound design becomes a vessel for aftermath, endurance, and the quiet violence of consequence.
