Press Info:
Two years after their debut drop as I Murdered on Mord, Berlin local Janice and US-born, Berlin-relocated Luis Flores reignite the flame with their hardline second outing and first for Reclaim Your City, ‘Blood In Blood Out’. Both schooled under the banner of mind-intrusive techno that packs a punch, the two have forged distinctively wild sound signatures, steering at a distance from weak-kneed raving pose and increasingly unsubstantial trends. As I Murdered, Janice and Luis explore the most severely trenchant facet of their respective universes, immersing their heavy-duty analogue wares through halls of noisey abrasion and further ear-splitting, gut-churning FXs to keep the adrenaline rushing in torrential downpours.

Comprised of two originals and a pair of remixes courtesy of boundary-pushing Canadian duo Orphx and Justin Broadrick under his JK Flesh alias, the EP plunges us in a wildly enjoyable kind of nightmarish, dungeon-like scenario. While the title-track makes for some Frankensteinian creature of sorts, electric riffs bringing its dead flesh to life as thunder strikes all over the place, Orphx revamp gives it a more straightforward, acid whip, cutting the raw gem into a further efficient, club-suitable weapon. Flip sides and ‘Insomnia’ unleashes the rogue, murdering stomp on a harsh EBM/cold wave-infused tip, with JK Flesh flying in on intruder mission for some last ditch heroics, breathing in a healthy dose of hyperventilating vox samples, knee-buckling breaks and face-melting junglistic moves in true Source Direct fashion. Buckle up and brace yourself, high-impact material all the way.
