    An amazing label. When the other labels were dedicated to melodic synth-driven and sample-laden mainstream, this is a dutch label that explored more industrial sounds in an uncompromising way. Distortion, downtempo are the keywords here. Some tracks even ventured into a more IDM and abstract direction.

    The only synths and voice samples found here, only intensify the feeling of doom and darkness.
    There is beauty in distortion.

    That the label quit in 2011, only adds to the status. Now it is synonymous with some of the best industrial hardcore from the 2000s.
