About this product
Making her recording debut just two years ago in 2013, Helena's first was a 3-track EP - Actio Reactio - on Actress' Werkdiscs imprint. She has since partnered with PAN (as Black Sites alongside F#x), Lux Rec, Bunker sublabel Panzerkreuz and Texan cassette imprint Handmade Birds to share her overtly analogue excursions into techno's shadowy fringes, improvised and recorded in her bedroom studio in Hamburg. Fully embracing her love of hardware, Helena joined James Dean Brown's legendary electronic improv outfit Hypnobeat (founded back in 1983) in 2013, blazing a trail across Europe with their intense polyrhythmic jam sessions on the TB-303, TR-707 and TR-808. InchI have the feeling it's more one-to-one - you do something and then the machine reacts. The machine has it's own mind too, so it gives something back.Inch Ten tracks deep, Discreet Desires is the embodiment of Helena's deep-seated beliefs about music as a radical force and unifying movement. Something that is evident from her growing stature as a selector and her enthusiasm for musical subcultures from punk to nu wave, industrial, krautrock and avant garde electro - all of which were rooted in raw experimentation and existed in polar opposition to the perfect, polished mainstream.InchPerfection is pretty boring. It doesn't really exist anyway... only in death. Death is perfect.Inch Album Tracks 1. Tripartite Pact 2. Spur 3. Sworn to Secrecy Part I 4. L'homme Mort 5. Funereal Morality 6. Piece of Pleasure 7. Tryst 8. Sworn to Secrecy Part II 9. Silver Sand & Boxes of Mould 10. Dreams in Colour

Haai - DIGITiSE (CD) [eco card sleeve + 8 pg booklet] DIGITiSE picks up where Haai's 2025 album HUMANiSE left off, dropping us squarely on the dance floor with 10-tracks that sonically spread across multiple lanes, inspired by Haai's all- night-long DJ sets. DIGITiSE continues to examine what it means to be human in an increasingly digital world the relentless pace of AI and technology, the divisions it creates, and the toll it takes, offering up an antidote to that community. To gather people in a room or on a dancefloor, to feel unity and belonging, is something Haai has fiercely championed. DIGITiSE opens itself fully to that spirit. The album brings the London-based, Australian- born producer, songwriter and DJ together with new collaborators Echonomist, Skybreak, and Cantoalegre (a children's choir from Medellín, Colombia) alongside artists Haai has collaborated with previously - Pat Alvarez, ILA, James Messiah and Kaiden Ford. DIGITiSE holds the hand of HUMANiSE and walks it to the club. Album Tracks 1. Re-Humanise 2. Printerlude 3. Ignition 4. Depth Perception 5. Digitise 6. Technology 7. Humanise Radio 8. Thank U 9. I Wanna Feel Like Someone 10. Talking Walls
