Kosovo Clubbing

Ben Klock, Fadi Mohem & Helmut Breineder present CERN , their first audio-visual collaboration, exploring the new possibilities of blockchain technology.  The digital art piece showcases an exclusive 1 minute track by techno artist Ben Klock & rising producer Fadi Mohem , focusing on the classic TR-909 drum machine, the quintessential techno instrument, chopped and bent to sound like a heavy-hitting bouncing ball.  The futuristic music is being fed into Helmut Breineders audio responsive particle system to generate a fluid digital sculpture with multiple collisions.  Their first NFT is limited to an edition of one and will be auctioned via Foundation – the same marketplace used by the likes of Aphex Twin, Holly Herndon and Edward Snowden.

Cisco Ferreira ’s seminal techno act The Advent returns to Ben Klock ’s imprint this May with three distinctly turbo-charged cuts, following his release on the label’s 22nd instalment in 2018.  A pioneer of early British techno , the London-based producer began his career in the halls of the legendary Jack Trax label as a sound engineer, going on to produce cutting edge releases on imprints R&S, Tresor and Transmat.  This latest Klockworks release relinquishes the sparse energy of T he Advent’s live sets from the 90’s with these previously unreleased timeless live recordings.  Favouring off-kilter percussion and warbled bass, all three strike hard with a distorted and visceral energy. “KW30” will be out on September o4 in digital and vinyl formats.  Pre-order HERE .
