DTRASH200 - Trash the World

DTRASH was one of the first net labels I encountered, over a decade ago. DTRASH was and still is an inspiration to myself as an artist. DTRASH Records helped instill in me a DIY attitude. Over the 200 releases DTRASH has carried the torch of Digital Hardcore for well over a decade. DTRASH200 contains just about every artist that has helped make DTRASH what it is and continues to be. Digital Hardcore legends such as Bomb 20, CPUWAR, Hansel, and Schizoid (the godhead of the DTRASH cult) all make appearances along with a long list of other talented artists. DO NOT PASS THIS UP. If you are not familiar with Digital Hardcore and its related genres this is a great place to get aquatinted. Now over here at Magicore we don't normally post about albums that are not free. but DTRASH has a catalogue of over 150 albums for free download from over the past ten years. Get ready to get fucking hardcore!

Genus Inkasso - Under Seals Broken By The Lean Solicitor

His latest offering on Immigrant Breast Nest is an epic acousmatic track sandwiched between two genre defying songs that might loosely be described as breakcore. Check it out!

Dada Cat - Raggacore

Dada Cat and Hormonal Vibrationz (a fine label run by the fantastic miss KlitoriX) present "Raggacore" a short release clocking in around 15 minutes filled with, you guessed it, raggacore. This brand of raggacore is a less distorted, less "breakcore" variety than what is normal for the genre. Shedding, for the most part, distorted amen attacks and filthy bass for a sound that gets back to its roots in ragga, dancehall, and dub. Its a nice change of pace. Grab this and don't forget to check out everything else from Dada Cat and Hormonal Vibratoinz. MUCH quality SUCH gypseycore/breakcore/awesome to be had!!

Matheus - Work The Math

Copious amounts of splatter breaks, rave leads, and bubbling bass lines. Super cracked out jungle. 90s rave puked from a breakcore sound system. Everything sounds crisp and clear. Well chosen samples provide extra energy compelling you to bang your head and simultaneously fluid. Even the more subdued parts are nearly bursting with barely contained energy. More on the jungle side compared to alot of breakcore releases these days. Track four "News Please" starts off with some clever faux-news samples of the raunchy variety which lead nicely into a heavy hitting ravecore banger. While everything is well produced and edited, there is an over use of certain rave-y synths/leads and jungle bass. The usage of said sounds does provide a continuing theme, though a little variation would have stepped things up a notch. The title track "Work The Math" begins with a melancholy string section seemingly promising a path different from the first five tracks, but it quickly falls back in with the vibe of the rest of the album. It would have been awesome to have the initial strings come back in to create a more energized emotionally compelling track. "Yesterday" provides an answer to these problems. Finally breaking away from the themes of the majority of the record, you're reminded of greats like Squarepusher and Wisp. Emotionally stirring arrangements and spot on vocal sampling backed with nicely edited breaks which are a tad more toned down. THis blends into a beautiful entity. "Serious" also breaks away from the standard sound of the release. It begins with a playful IDM ditty that eventually evolves into a pretty hard and dark breakcore jam. "Unknown Vibes" is wonderfully jazzy, another instance where we are reminded of Squarepusher's apparent influence on Matheus. That said, this is no rip off. The rhodes get trippy in delay land having fun playing with all their panning partners in crime. Hi-hats and rides dance between your ears swinging back and forth while snares set the pace and the rhodes piano continues to soothe and make things rather stoney. "Work The Math" ends with "The End of the Beginning", a distinctly Matheus breakcore banger clocking in at just over ten minutes long. The real stand-out tracks have to be "Yesterday" and "Unknown Vibes". Despite the fact you may be reminded of other talented artists, they are unique to Matheus and reveal sounds and potential that will keep you wondering how Matheus will grow in future releases. "Work The Math" is a solid full length of breakcore tinged jungle with the odd IDM flourishes that will keep you coming back to the Matheus trough for more. Co-released by Sociopath Recordings and Core Collective Records. Core Collective Records is co-owned by Matheus and another great UK producer, MATT:Scratch.

Marcanta - Lynx

Fuckin' nasty 3 track EP from Marcanta on the fabulous Breakcore.NL Music. Never heard of Marcanta before this. I am happily relieved of that ignorance. Supremely unique backgrounds for sweet well crafted amen edits. Its like a 16 bit jungle invaded my mind on the wings of some mighty divine bird with snare rushes for feathers. The last track "Rubberoom - White Hot Razors (Marcanta Remix)" gets utterly brutal. Raging rhymes, breakcore, and br00t4l metal flourishes. Do YOURSELF a favor, PUNCH a RAVER.

V/A - Tunedere Vol. 2

New compilation coming from Tsundere Violence, one of the few active lolicore focused labels around. CDR kicks off the album with a pretty sweet mix of jungle leaning breakcore with a dash of wub wub and japanese vocal sampling. NoSleeves drops a track that is all over the place in all the right ways, jumpin through genres (breakcore, chiptune, jcore, numerous EDM genres) like nobodies business. Just wish it was mastered a little better, the sound is a tad murky. Pencil has a short and sweet lolicore banger after my own heart, though poorly mastered, sounds like its coming from inside a wet boot taking away from sound like well edited drums and a well chosen vocal track. Rotten Blood's two tracks are probably my favorites. Very well produced lolicore/breakcore all around dopeness. Neko Girl's Litter Box throws down three tracks, my favorite being "lolimaidbukkake.jpeg" being very reminiscent of my buddy Tropical Pain Forest. Omorashi's "Grapefruit" brings downtempo hip hop-y glitchy-ness to the fold, not too repetitive patterns develop and flow well. Himeko Katagiri's (who is also Omorashi and about 10 other aliases) offering,"On Your Ass Like Some Drawers", shows a continued improvement in his production abilities. Sounding pretty awesome! Rotten Blood comes at you with some pretty sweet lolicore consumables. Strange Toy (who also appears as The Bad Samurai on the compilation) provides some pretty cool jittery cut ups a la breakcore status. Noise, Vocaloid, Amens.... pretty much sums up this compilation. If those three things sound good to you, this is a compilation for you. Be sure to check out some of the other releases up on Tsundere Violence's website. They have a couple hundred releases for their two years of existence and they are all FREE!

V/A - 100LEGS: ONE HUNDRED CURSES

30 tracks of FUCKING HARDCORE awesome. Legs Akimbo Records reaches 100 releases. Fantastic label. Putting out everything dirty noisy angry brutal terror anything core since 2010. Matheus' track has some pretty fuckin' sweet edits goin' on. Egodiscordia's track caught my attention with its continual evolution of sound that keeps you interested all the way through. Legs Akimbo regulars like Hersernoise, Skat Injector, and Noistruct all lend tracks. While all the music on this compilation is of a 'hard' or 'noisy' variety, it stays interesting not only because of the top quality of the music but the mass cross breeding of genres. You like noise? You like breakcore? You like speedcore? Hop on! AND PUNCH A RAVER! (oh by the by, our boy J.DECKER did the sweet menstru-bloody logo!)

some dirty 'n dark atmoshperic drone breakcore goodness from Australia's Night Terror Recordings
and Noistruct. 3 tracks clocking in at almost 1/2 hour plus stems for the title track. Industrial wasteland soundscapes digitally rendered. Ceremonial Remix has got some haunting vocals bumping about... busy ER waiting room. Splitting headache breaks. That feeling before your appendix was removed. Dissonant background layers swallow the break. Cacophony. "RMX" is a far different and less lengthy take on title track. MuCH c0r3 FuNk.

[MNF007] HITORI TORI: Beyond the Wake [EP]

Hitori Tori's "Beyond the Wake" EP dropped last November, so I apologize to those who are already familiar with this fine release. Those of you who are not, you are in for a treat. Released by Meganeural Records, a net and hard release label specializing in (as Meganueral puts it) "Intelligent Rave Music".

"Beyond the Wake" lives in the realm of quick acid licks and splattered breaks. Nothing new or ground breaking. That said every track is masterfully produced. Clever composition with top tier edits combine for a very energetic listening experience. These tracks tear up the dance floor. The fast attack acid licks are quite reminiscent of the works of Wisp and Squarepusher.

Hitori Tori does a great job of joining the sounds of Bogdan Raczynski/Aphex Twin brand "IDM" with splashes of raggacore and jungle oriented breakcore. While there are similarities between Hitori and the aforementioned greats, there lacks a certain emotional fire to the melodies. They definitely stir the body. Unfortunately they do not stir the heart in the same way that others making this variety of music do.

One of my favorite moments lies in "Mana Pool featuring Helicobacter" which is pretty much standard fare until towards the end, where it breaks down into an awesomely groovy glitch hop ender. There are quite a few vocal samples peppered through out. A few are hip hop a capellas. Others are from movies/TV. Much like with the melodies, there is little emotion provoked. The exception would be the last minute or so of "Remian V2" where the synth lead combines with hip hop vocals and break edits bringing the song to an exceptional finish.

Hitori Tori's "Beyond the Wake" is perfect for the dance floor. Every track holds non stop energy. The music is pretty top notch for the genres contained within. With all this energy bursting from each track, it often lacks direction. Things often seem purely mechanical. A well oiled machine made from the pinnacle of break science, yet it lacks a heart.

[Metafiziq] V/A - Damaged N Broken

Fantastic hard music mostly originating from Eastern Europe and supporting that scene. Tracks from artists most of us know such as Stazma the Junglechrist, Goretech, Ruby My Dear, and a whole batch of talented musicians you probably haven't heard of but will be glad of the lifted ignorance once you digest these tasty bits of nasty pretty dirty sometimes awe inspiring electronica.

Personal Rant: Jad Atoui - Leaf Sequence is probably my favorite track on here (besides Gore Tech's dark dirty jungle/breakcore pure awesome offering) and its not just because of the minimally beautiful 'IDM' flavors...... its the sample at the end. Jad Atoui samples Cex. Cex's early 2000's releases "Role Model" and "Oops I Did It Again" are all time favorites of mine. I forget which of these albums Jad Atoui pulls the sample from, but the sample consists of Cex speaking on his perception of music and how he releases it. He essentially says that accessibility is important. That statement is important in this day and age when people are willing to release any old inaccessible garbage they pooped out in their bedroom. I've done it myself. Artistic Quality control is important, you shouldn't be content with releasing anything but your best work. As far as it be accessible to reach the masses as he implies, I would much rather have 1,000 people hear my music than 10, exactly as Cex says. But that is a more personal decision on the part of the artist, whether they care if anyone hears it or not. To elaborate on my previous statement, if you're going to release music and put it in front of people, give them the best you can.

V/A - Themeless 6

MAGICORE IS BACK BAY-BAY! BEEN TOO LONG! To start things back off on the right foot, hes a slammin' compilation from our friends over at Breakcore.NL Music. They've been doing this awesome series called "Themeless" for awhile now and have gotten all the way up to the sixth volume. It kicks off with a crossbreed hardcore ass banger from Rott In Pieces. So much tasty kicks und bass. The pace never really slows save a few moments of reprieve allowing the avid listener to come up for a breath of air and give their head-bang abused necks a rest. These moments are few and far between and are always tension building lead ups to more destruction. Great break edits all around, top notch atmospheres, melodies, and composition. This is a fantastic starting point for anyone who wants to hear what the Hardcore electronic family of genres is about. As Tex-nd (track 3) would say.... "Barbra Streisand!"

V/A - Brokecore Forever

A fun romp through the extended Brokecore family. A Family that has been split up and gone through rough times, but has finally come back together in a tender embrace. The last Brokecore compilation was nigh on 7 years ago. The label has been pretty much on indefinite hiatus since. Now its back with a vengeance! 38 tracks of br00t41 nast'. Relative newcomer Mherdad kicks things off with a pretty straight forward breakcore banger, filled to the brim with breaks, edits, and gabber kicks. The following track by another newcomer, Freebase Frenzy, sounds as though Stuntrock himself (circa '00) took possession and kicked out the jams with his track "Mr Austin Tends To Get A Little Cranky If He Doesn't Get A Beer By Noon". The intensity never lets up. Whether its top notch noise blasts from the likes of Michigan's RedSK or evil chiptune anthems from Pittsburgh's very own Bit Mummy, you will not be disappointed. Evil Robot Ted, Brokecore's owner, known for his harsh digi noise pieces and broken breakbeat montages brings the finest, cleanest piece of Jungle/Drum n Bass I've ever heard from him. Ditching the standard noise pads for phasing melodies reminiscent of the raving early 90s and backing it up with varied, well edited amens provides a quite enjoyable listening experience. The track order is superb, songs often mixing very well into the following track. Evil Robot Ted's track runs perfectly into the mellow I DO NOT LOVE.'s "Come Back", subdued vocals harkening back to Joy Divisions haunting vocalist Ian Curtis coupled with a pretty electronic melody that slowly washes away in a sea of reverb and echo along with the rest of the song, a deep dark well of doomed synth pop. While there are many new names to the Brokecore roster introduced on this compilation, that doesn't mean there aren't a few old favorites in the mix either. Kindergarten Hazing Ritual, DJ Scratchin', and Helium Ointment all lend their talents. A joy to listen to, an honor to have had the opportunity to participate. Brokecore FOREVER!

HIMIKO - DethNoizzz

HIMIKO brings it hard and dirty with "DethNoizzz". Filthy gabber kicks support guttural death metal vocals and shredding, mixed well with HIMIKO's higher pitched shrieks. Most of the tracks have a sludgy slow pace, like plodding through a sewer where Carl Crack's spirit drowns any interlopers with discordant ectoplasmic slime. While the album is mostly made up of a well balanced mixture of various incarnations of extreme metal and digital hardcore stylings, there are smatterings of dubstep, electronic hardcore, breakcore, and crossbreed. D-TRASH proves its worth and relentless dedication to the music with another fine free release. Be sure to check out HIMIKO's last release "Fuck Off", a digital hardcore re-workings of classic American thrash metal tunes. Mochipet was close, but GIRLS LOVE DIGITAL HARDCORE!

Anorak - Breakbeat Overdose

Superb breakcore EP from Anorak. Well produced energetic edits get you pumped while samples with sweet timing assail you, pulling you completely in. The edits at times remind me of personal favorites dev/null or Venetian Snares ("Bolt Thrower" and "Higgins" eras respectively), spastic and engaging. Gets the adrenaline flowing. The track that stood out the most to me was "Up Your Inuendo", which also happens to be the opening song. Ravey synth stabs jump between sporadic nasty breaks, though fairly standard kits, are in no way boring due to the sweet cuts perpetrated by Anorak. Anorak lives up to the reputation of Bristol, UK being a hot spot for tasty breakcore happenings. While still a fairly hard release, gabber kicks are relatively absent (although the track "Leave a LiTTle Piece" gets head bangy with a crossbreed groove). Instead you find acid licks, ravey stabs, and a capella shout outs. Altogether an enjoyable four track EP experience. A happy addition to any breakcore fanatics collection.
