Introduction:
This is a special about Electrosexual – a French musician from Toulouse who lives in Berlin now and produces a very nice kind of electro pop.
In September 2013 he released the EP Devolution” featuring Transformer Di Roboter on Killerrrec, the label founded by the Dualesque/ guys Manuel and Mario Unterhuber and Yasmin Elias.
Last year he finished his own album “Art Support Machine” and put it out on his very own label RockMachine Records. The album features Hanin Elias, former member of Atari Teenage Riot, and Hard Ton and is a great mixture of electronic style like synth pop, house, techno and everything in between.
Enjoy his sound here with our selection of videos …
Notes:
The Berlin-based label Killekill Records celebrates its 7th anniversary tonight. For sure the guys behind the label will have a big party at their homebase Suicide Circus (see facebook event or residentadvisor entry).
The label releases a wide range of styles of electronic music – from classic Electro, wonky Techno, Acid and Wave or Industrial Techno but also housy stuff on its sublabel KilleKill House Trax.
Artists like Lakker, Furfriend, Eomac, Alex Cortex, Bill Youngman, Neil Landstrumm, Snuff Crew and others signed a contract to have one or more records on this label with very good reputation.
The guys behind the label also run the annual Krake Festival in Berlin.
Very close to the label is the video collective the29nov films who are responsible for visuals at label parties and also created a lot of promotional videos for the releases.
To celebrate the birthday of KilleKill we decided not to feature their birthday party but have a special with selected videos which were made by the29nov films. ENJOY!
Videos:
Eomac – “Spectre (Tommy Four Seven Remix)”
Introduction/Adapted Press Infos:
This is a special about Plastikman … Richie Hawtin aka Plastikman is today — superstar DJ, mastermind of the Minus label, entrepreneur, technological innovator and techno pioneer.
He released a lot of stuff that had a big influence on the techno scene. No wonder that he was already signed by Mute’s techno imprint novamute in 1993.
But it took over 2 years more until Hawtin released a new album under his moniker Plastikman. For sure the new album “EX” was released by Mute in Europe.
Here is a selection of videos …

Notes:
In a few days the guys of the29nov will celebrate the 8th anniversary of their project(s).
Sebastian Kökow and Kevin Paschold, to give them a name :-), grew up both in a small town called Sonneberg which is famous for toy making. The town lies within in one of the most beautiful landscapes of Germany – Thuringia, but not much to do for young guys.
So they started a project called “the29nov” – organising events and playing music. Later the two school mates moved to the creative melting point Berlin to start making videos for techno tracks.
They became the very well-known duo “the29nov films” which is nowadays respected in the techno scene – from fans, artists and label owners. Besides creating videos Sebastian Kökow also tours as DJ spinning fine techno.
To celebrate their birthday we have this small special with their own favourite videos they created – each of them selected 8 tracks/videos.
