08apr07   out now: alphacut 007 12inch is finally here! man, this took us sooo long... a bunch of anxious distributors and unsuccessfull attempts of persuasion later, we found back to good old underground ways of spreading out our white boom-sound babies. yeah! don't miss this bass-loaded statement of dubwize independence!
welcome "the old man" alpha omega and "the green guy" sumone to alphacut camp! doh!

about alphacut records

alphacut logo alphacut records was founded in 2002 as a drum&bass label with a strict whitelabel philosophy, featuring up and coming artists from all over europe. until today the imprint is being transformed into a platform for new kinds of energetic uptempo breakbeat tunes and beyond. we conceive and conduct a wide range of electronic music with a focus on broken beats, uncompromising sounds, experimental and informal innovations and a healthy bit of rough dancefloor attitude.

alphacut records is releasing more or less dancefloor compatible experimental drum&bass 12inch artist split singles. mainly set up for djs and collectors, reflecting in features like locked grooves, handnumbered limitations and coloured vinyl.
besides that, alphacute is a sublabel for 7inch split releases with affiliated labels, showing the background scene beyond the usual d&b bizness, dealing with experimental electronics of all kinds imaginable.

so what we did and do is just to celebrate an honest, demanding & sophisticated d.i.y. style of presentation for our music, artists, records and parties. we proudly present real artist music and no close-minded scene-exclusives, for your restful listening pleasure!
demos are always appreciated - don't hesitate to torture us with your noise.

note 

swapping, trading, exchanging, ... always appreciated! check this list and get in touch!

there is no use in sending full length longplayer demos. albums are not going to be released at all. this is mostly about artist split vinyls. you know - compiling things together is much more exciting...

alphacut will never ever sign so-called independent guitar combos, cheesy distorted teenage mc's or pseudo-arty minimal techno stuff. don't waste your time.

as this is about d.i.y., there is no need for any agencies, whether its about press, booking or production handling. go get other fools and turn their lazyness into cash!





alphacut records

is releasing more or less dancefloor compatible experimental drum&bass breakcore idm 12inch artist split singles. mainly set up for djs and collectors, reflecting in features like locked grooves, handnumbered limitations and coloured vinyl.


alphacut 009  out now!

acr009 done in december 2008, green 12" vinyl with transparent, white andor black details, including nine locked grooves

a1  randomer  down in the woods
b1  paranoid society  hi resolution

engine, engine, number nine. back on the track with the third alphacut in 2008, we proudly present two a sides pushing a retro futuristic issue with all its ambivalences but also with some great deals in common: the futurethinking, backwardlooking alphacut 009. once again we share fresh artists with you, not only both having their debut on alphacut, but also paranoid society celebrate their first vinyl release ever. guaranteed fresh & spicy, made to drop you back down in the woods!

 


alphacut 008

acr008 done in september 2008, white 12" vinyl with yellow and black details, including eleven locked grooves

a1  line 47  thousand year descent
a2  bop  noosphere
b1  throttler  black highway
b2  mendelayev  i'm zombie

to push the boundaries of what was known as drum&bass, was alphacut's primary aim when it was founded six years ago. this time it seems as if this goal has finally been reached: four playable uptempo smashers by promising artists from all over this crazy little planet. each one running his totally unique business, though all songs feel united by their obvious intention to expand the one they used to call the drum&bass. everything is possible: hard hittin electronica, deep darkstep and edgy drumfunk. this is it, welcome 2008!

"fast and dancefloor compatible, but a great mental movie at the same time. typical alphacut" (kreuzer)

 


alphacut 007

acr007 done in april 2008, limited to 777, white 12" vinyl, including three locked grooves

a1  alpha omega  concrete pillows
b1  sumone  rhythm machine
b2  lxc  lock in

at a time when everything feels said about upfront drum&bass tunes and all so-called heads turn back to deeper shades of bass like dubstep, even alphacut headquarters' feel like its time for some really meditative 180bpm breakbeat rides, walls of dub and - of course - subbass!

"if there hasn't been a label like alphacut yet, one should go and invent it. it is providing drum&bass and darkjungle with innovation and high quality and will probably save the genre from decay somewhen." (raveline)

"very nice release of odd drum and bass. that sumone tune is especially deep!" (c64)

"alphacut 7 is real dope! the cutting is damn loud, i played it yesterday in a small private party and almost destroyed the pa!" (fred e.)

 


alphacut 006

acr006 done in may 2007, limited to 666, white 12" vinyl, including six locked grooves

a1  mze  blut
a2  nalpas  oe part 1
b1  martsman  jump funk
b2  nalpas  oe part 2

without hesitating, this next alphacut release is getting things started right away with mze's dancefloor bomb 'blut', followed by martsman's probably catchiest ear worm for summer 2007.
on top of this double a side you'll find some weird buzz tracking dillentantisms by nalpas.

"different bussiness, i'm feeling it. street music - goin' on dark!" (bailey on bbc 1xtra)

"three powerful productions from the house of alphacut." (debug)

 


alphacut 005

ace000 done in october 2006, limited to 555, white 12" vinyl, including ten locked grooves

a1  society suckers & mze  fight
b1  iaka  noloop
b2  cycom  down the drain

alphacut strikes back with three deadly weapons of sound, residing somewhere between drum&bass, breakcore, drumfunk and fake-swing. destroying musical borders as usual, the fifth release is darker, faster and much more broken than the ones before. how can this be possible? mmh, just take a listen!

"there are three very evily rocking dark drum&bass tracks, which may be a match for something happening between alpha omega and intasounds. definately a must for all seeking for drumn&bass, which is standing widely besides the scene but having monumental deepness." (debug)

 


alphacut 004

acr004 done in may 2005, limited to 444, white 12" vinyl, 5 locked grooves

a1  nalpas  bad thing
a2  hi-lar  prod 692
b1  mze  waterbwoy
b2  jakin boaz  jaguarundi

we are still here. don't care what all the others are proclaiming. sit down, relax, we will help you against today's bad musical influences. because everyone is telling us that we do so, we have to believe and push it forward. even if all this should be a lie, the music will make it come true.
quite different styles on one 12inch, from idm to weird d&b and back. sometimes shameless, sometimes deep. hits you from behind.

"first three tracks point direct with broken beats and cut straightness into weirdness shortly touching tangofeeling and vibrating doing-doing attitude. hybrid anti-d'n'b that fights for itself by homaging certain deadlines of 4/4-drive. for these brain flashes: the best record of 2005!" (minor)

 


alphacut 003

acr003 done in march 2004, limited to 500, white 12" vinyl, 8 locked grooves

a1  bad matter  jazzthing
b1  cycom  rude bwoy  lxc rmx

breaks, breaks, breaks. we introduce a nearly unknown and upcoming talent from berlin: bad matter, the lost soul of jungle from germany with his very first vinyl release. listen to it and you will remember former droppin' science kind-of-stuff, made of jazz breaks and tube basslines. alphacut 001 hit the advanced dancefloors across europe one year ago, and now the mighty 'rude bwoy' strikes back: lxc redisigned cycom's work into a dark metal soldier, forcing all sophisticated feet to dance.

"definately spreading even more fire than the releases number one and two. if drum&bass really is energetic music, then this way!" (png)

"build to shake the dancefloors of the republic." (raveline)

"alphacut is bangin drum and bass from germany. all of their releases to date have been drop and this one is no exception." (soundclash)

 


alphacut 002

acr002 done in feb. 2004, limited to 500, white 12" vinyl, 8 locked grooves

a1  mze vs lxc  stick em up
b1  hi-lar  prod 055
b2  hp.stonji  reej

after a short break alphacut strikes back with this 3-track vinyl, supporting once again and surely not the last time up and coming artists from all over europe. lxc is cooperating with newcomer mze from leipzig, hi-lar is experiencing his first vinyl release and the hp.stonji guys are coming to open your ears for some odd electronics.

"the most challenging drum&bass tracks from germany for a long time - a must!" (debug)

"definately that kind of drum&bass, for which i haven't got everything else to my ears for years. nice and courageous release." (png)

"this is primetime stuff for advanced dancefloors!" (future music)

 


alphacut 001

acr001 done in jan. 2003, limited to 500, white 12" vinyl, handnumbered

a1  cycom  rude bwoy
b1  buzz  powerplant
b2  lxc  eko  jakin boaz rmx

even 3 different artist clash together on the first alphacut record: the triangle between hamburg, dortmund and leipzig became spread and shows alphacut's openness and range. the direction of music is mainly thought for the dancefloor, however nevertheless also for the brains. there are breaks, drops and other weird stuff - whatever the sequencer spits out to make your feet busy again.

"no dumb hardcore, but blessed with the spice and the roughness of a record from the underground. amen." (dhyana)

"for rude boys and beat digger" (ouk)

headquarter  mze.pltn.org

mze is an up&coming artist straight out of thuringia, still feeling at home in its local scene. leipzig? whatever should be going on there? he is an addicted home producer forgetting everything around when doing his beats & basses. sounds like strictly nerd stuff - but he is sill in love with drumnbass – ooh. we surely have to expect fresh & innovative stuff from this guy, by the way: this should be a matter of course these days, isn’t it?

paranoid society

paranoid society appearance  live

style  d&b deep & schizophrenic

releases  on modern urban jazz and syncopathic

location  tallinn (ee)

headquarter  paranoidsociety.net

paranoid society is an alliance of intelligent music and visual arts. idm, vector and arts for life - those words you'll find by browing their website's html header. even there you see a clan of future addicts doing retrospective things and tellings by them. all their works have this kind of schizophrenia involved: even the music by the group's breakbeat mastermind creep. he is constantly looking back to the nineties for deepness and variety, but at the same time heading for 2097 with impressively futuristic sounds and fx, it seems as if this man is traveling time and space to get back to 95 and steel some seqences right out of the studios of source direct or photek. so, we stay speechless and unable to do anything but looking forward to even more productions from out there estonia.

with a 90ies background straight out off a chocolate box with all ups and downs, it wasn’t until 2002, before throttler began to kick his mixture of dark, hard and fast, constantly alternating music, made of notorious landscapes and techy dancefloor breakbeat treatment. not only had he released a bunch of vinyls until now - even the press like knowledge and soundmaker got attracted to his productions - both the solo stuff and his collaborations with female vocalist lowbss. looking forward to forthcoming material and worldwide live appearances, we are excited to see whats up next at throttleversum.

releases  'fight' with mze on alphacut 005, further tracks on lux nigra, mental ind., mash, peace off, amex & kool.pop

location  berlin (de)

headquarter  society-suckers.com

the society suckers make frantic, precisely arranged psychedelic pogo trash music. born out of a frustration with emotionless dance music, 1997's debut "anti-carnivore" on kool.pop featured their trademark ultrahigh frequency melodies and precisely arranged hyper breakbeats, becoming a breakcore standard before the genre had a name. their live shows blend focused turntable skills with emotionally charged gear tormenting - it's a manic combination of breakcore opera, rave hooks, pogo anthems and structural mayhem. they have a long history of performing in europe and recently north america, with artists such as venetian snares, dj scud, patric catani, kid606, din-st, dj/rupture, hrvatski, drop the lime, and melt banana.

bad matter, also known as fixed frequency, born in berlin, acquired a lot of musical influences over the years in this city . his interest to do "something" with music increased and he started dj´ing at home in 1992, first steps in sequencing followed 2 years later. many different kinds of music derived from projects with friends or work for theatres, but he liked (broken-) beats from the very beginning. jungle / drum&bass was "love on first sight" and he focused more and more on it. now, involved in the audiomassive crew from berlin, he works as a dj, producing with them, others and solo. the contact to lxc / alphacut came via the internet and it resulted in this first cut.

iaka

iaka appearance  dj

style  d&b leftfield but straight

releases  'noloop' on alphacut 005, further tracks on plainaudio, dunkelbunt & sellout

location  hamburg (de)

headquarter  iaka.plainaudio.com

iaka released his first acidtracks on coloured vinyl in 1993. despite his indian roots, he escaped the back-then trendy goa-vibes and instead got involved with drum'n'bass. in 1997, he founded plain productions in order to freely distribute his musical ideas to other like-minded fellows, without having to compromise. today's productions by iaka are marked by a great love of detail and well-balanced arrangements. the foundation for his own blueprint of drum'n'bass is the modulation of sounds and beats. that's why there often are complex drum patterns and demanding beat structures in his tracks. in hamburg, he is mostly known as a dj and as one of the people organising the drumbule-parties. there, he regularly surprises people with two fisted club-sets, which stand in sharp contrast to his own productions.
