Deathmachine debut album, Engines of Creation OUT NOW



The most anticipated hardcore techno album in years is finally upon us. Deathmachine's debut full length album, Engines of Creation is officially released today on Third Movement and what a beautifully constructed belter it is to!
There's plenty here for the die-hard dancefloor fans to get stuck into, but be under no illusion, this isn't just a collection of 12" tracks cobbled together on a cd, this really is an album, with every track working together to create a well oiled machine that improves on every listen. The production is of the highest quality, but the compositions themselves show that Deathmachine is not only at the top of his game, but he's pushing the game forward for everyone.

Engines of Creation is available to buy digitally on iTunes, Beatport and Juno.  The CD can purchased direct from Third Movement HERE.

Breakcore...at it's finest


We're happy to announce another batch of new breakcore signings to the family.

Please welcome, Ladyscraper and Dr.Bastardo!  Both artists have a long history together with their involvement with such UK crews as Wrong Music, but sonically they definitely both have their own unique sound and their own ways to rupture dancefloors across the globe.  They will also be joining Skull Vomit on Miike Teknoist's next Ninja Columbo release (due out in the next month or two).

But before we get to them, here's some news of one of our other breakcore superstars, Stazma...

Ladyscraper


Coming at you like Phil Anselmo with his cock in one hand and a canvas bag full of Gabber kicks in the other, new MethLab signing Ladyscraper alternates between beating the shit from your bowels and transporting you to lovely fairy castles surrounded by flying unicorns.

So far in 2013, Ladyscraper has released ‘The Witch’ as another free DL album on Grindcore Karaoke.  The legendary Agrophobic Nosebleed posted this about the release ‘This shit is LIGHTYEARS ahead of anything ANB has ever done musically. Grindcore is almost 30 fuckin' years old, it's nice to be listening to something that actually sounds like 2013 for a change’. Following The Witch we have the second free DL Ladyscraper Album of 2013, The Wizard, which will be landing on Rotator’s Peace off imprint late April, followed by a split on Ninja Columbo with Skull Vomit and Dr. Bastardo early summer.

Dr.Bastardo


Dr. Bastardo's first practical experiments were made available to the public in 2006 on the 2x12 "When Dub Plates Attack" on Peace Off. He has since had work released by Ad Noiseam, Proboscus, Rancourous, and Our Fucking Jungle. He is also well known for his live practical demonstrations of techno science at events around the UK and Europe.

The Doctor has made a special promo mix exclusive to MethLab, showcasing all the tunes from his numerous upcoming releases.  Download and listen to it here...

The new CORE of MethLab

At MethLab, we've always had our toes dipped in to the worldwide Core arena as much as we have with cutting edge techy DnB and dub fused electronica. We've wanted to keep the roster as diverse as possible, whilst at the same time representing artists that could quite happily sit alongside each other at any rave in the world. We know the most discerning of you like variety as long as the quality is maintained. Well, quality is not something our roster lacks. All our artists are at the top of their game in their respective fields and our latest signings are certainly no exception.

Please welcome to the stage, The DJ Producer and Deathmachine!


Luke McMillan aka The DJ Producer


If you've been anywhere near the dirty end of techno in the past 20 years, you may know the name.
If you've been anywhere near a UK or European festival in the last 10 years, its more than likely you know the name.
But, if you've had any dealing with the underground hardcore techno scene since its conception, then you DEFINITELY know the name!

Luke has been in the game long enough and strong enough to have played pretty much EVERY relevant underground organisation there is to play for. Over 20 years in over 20 countries. Damn straight. But Luke's motivation is beyond purely clocking miles, or scratching notches on bedposts.
His passion for music stems way, way back, and his hunt for the elusive and exclusive cuts made him what he is, couple this with a devastating mixing technique that rivals most computers and his over keen spidey sense to adapt to the dance floors demands and you have one of the most enthralling jocks ever to emerge from the UK's murky underground depths........The music may be filthy, but Luke understands its every nuance intimately, and his performances demonstrate this....control freakery within chaos, and no sync buttonin sight :)

Stef Eyre aka Deathmachine


Stef has been actively involved in the underground Hardcore scene since 1998 and has now played at nearly every major Hardcore Techno event in the country.  He started dabbling in production around 2000 and released his first track on Corrupt records in 2001. The next few years were spent developing and experimenting but soon more tracks followed including notable releases on the iconic Rebelscum and Deathchant labels.  Soon, a connection was made with The DJ Producer who supported Deathmachine's sound greatly, and eventually they worked together on various releases which included the very successful track "Pixelshifter" on Rebelscum.

Always active in the studio, his focus is on creating powerful genre-pushing (but still of course danceable) music that engages the listener on a number of levels. At this time (start of 2013) there are forthcoming releases on Rebelscum (2 collaborations with The DJ Producer), Nekrolog1k Recordings, Future Sickness and more yet to be announced.

Deathmachine is currently working on his first solo album which will represent every dimension of Hardcore Techno that he knows and loves. His background in underground Hardcore along with his new work in the direction of Crossbreed and D'n'B results in great diversity both in the studio and in the clubs.
