• NEWS • We are 4!
4 years have most definitely flown by, but they do say we must be having fun and it’s absolutely true. Here is a breakdown of happenings and the things to look forward to…
Promoting established artists we are digging and DJ talent has always been the focus for us, showcasing great music. We continue to receive messages of support from fans around the world, even one person saying “Don’t change!” This is the key I find, keeping the same template and letting the music speak for itself, allowing the right people to find us.
Proving this theory, we were recently contacted by producer and friend Andreas-Tek who curates a brand new channel on the world renowned net radio site Digitally Imported (or simply di.fm) called Underground Techno. You can catch our repeat shows being scheduled bi-weekly Saturday’s around 4:30-6:00pm GMT.
The premiere broadcast of each mix can always be heard online bi-weekly via soe.fm Radio in Germany.
– This official site has over 39,000 views since launching in November 2010
– SoundCloud is now over 3,631 Followers
– Facebook Page has 2,751 Likes
– Twitter has 525 Followers
– Mixcloud has 607 Followers
To help celebrate our 4th birthday, there are 2 mixes lined up, a 2hr 22mins Exclusive LIVE recording from Marcus Reichel in Brandenburg, Germany. In the next couple of weeks will be my annual Special Mix Series set featuring artists that have previously been guests or to appear in the future on Death Techno, to show appreciation for their work and taking part in this project.
Our schedule is rammed as usual… over the coming months we have Exclusive sets to feature from Israel Toledo, ALHEK, Bruno Ledesma, XHEI, Lex Gorrie, Eomac and Affin label boss Joachim Spieth just to scratch the surface…
Our label DEAD CERT. Records that began releasing in July 2013 has the 7th instalment due March 13 from the fantastic Energun. Plenty of music is in the pipeline from more great artists that are to be revealed with some even more special news to announce later in the year… Below you can listen to some previews and check out our links…
Thanks for all the continued support!
Cheers,
Jack! Who? B-)

• NEWS • DEAD CERT. Records
I’d like to officially announce that DEAD CERT. Records will be launching in the coming months.
It’s been a long wait for many involved since April 2012, but these things take time and a whole lot of work to put together. We wanted to make sure things are at their best for us and everyone else before moving forward and we would like to thank those for their patience and belief in our vision.
We are nearly finished mastering the remixes for the first few releases, so from now there should be a pretty quick turn around before the first release details and promos start to trickle out to our friends. You can expect to see remixes appearing by quality artists and friends like Audio Injection, Heron, Miss Sunshine and Hans Bouffmyhre.
As you may know, we like variations of techno and minimal, as is showcased through Death Techno and this will be reflected in the music that appears on DEAD CERT.
“Welcome to DEAD CERT.
We enjoy a deep/dark sound that excites and instills passion in the listener like none other. “Quality over quantity” is our mantra, releasing a variety of minimal and techno whilst discovering and nurturing new artists that we believe in.
Keeping an open mind at all times, we look for everything from style and originality to how a track would sound in a club for that extra dimension through years of experience.
Mastered by a high profile engineer who has worked with Magda on her album for Minus and Items & Things, amongst others.
From the Creator of Death Techno and the Owner of 22 Digit Records.”

Ideas are coming thick and fast for the future already so we can’t wait to get moving, releasing high quality music and making our own mark.
Cheers,
Jack! Who?

Sascha and friends at London based SMUT Clothing always have their finger on the pulse. Now being sported by another rising talent from Sunderland, friend, model and burlesque performer Katrina Darling in the appropriately named “Naughty Vicar T-shirt” which is available from their online store.

To let you into a little secret, she also has royal connections being second cousin of the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton. Part of her burlesque act is called “God Save the Queen” to play on the family ties. A little further below are some of our favourite photos of Katrina showcasing her versatility and awesome style.

• NEWS • SMUT x Ellis Cooper
We’ve been a fan and follower of London based SMUT Clothing for over 4 years now. Everything from the brand, blog, clothing, models and their general way of life is unique and naughty. The feeling has been reciprocated by the main man Sascha digging mixes from myself and our podcast since the beginning, even dropping them at after-parties I’m told!
In recent months, much to our elation, we’ve seen photoshoots pop up of friend and model Ellis Cooper rocking SMUT gear, who hails from our hometown Sunderland. Ellis has just moved to London and is currently signed with Girl Management which is ran by Lucy Pinder, who looks after many top models like Vikki Blows.
We are over the moon to see this collaboration happening and would like to show our support!

• NEWS • BIG DIRTY Cables : Death Techno Sponsor
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
INTRO…
I am over the moon to announce a new sponsorship for Death Techno. Since launching DT as a new project back in March 2010 there has been many highlights so far and this is top of the list.
I was looking for a new audio cable to accompany me and generally be my cable of choice for gigs. After a while of searching eBay, I was enticed by a superb stock photo, then looking closer a clear, stylised and defined product which was exactly what I was looking for. A unique, distinctive, black cable design with an orange tag at either end of the connectors marked BIG DIRTY that I could tell was made with a great understanding and passion in mind.
Reading a little more into the seller I discovered more…
“Big Dirty cables supplies custom audio and video cables to TV and Audio professionals around the UK. Before now we have only done business face to face with our clients, now we feel its time to let the on-line community see what we have to offer.”
Without hesitation I bought it and wanted to get in touch with them and let them know what a great product I thought they had. The idea of Sponsorship soon arose and after multiple lengthy emails as we talked future plans and ideas. I am truly proud that DT is now associated with the super high audio standards they strive for, this is certainly a relationship that will build.
“Thanks for all your great comments about our products and style, it’s exactly how I wanted it to all come across. I had a look at your WordPress and SoundCloud sites, it looks like you have an ever growing good thing going on with some dedicated followers. I’ve had some of the mixes on in the background whilst making up the days cable orders!”
Thanks for reading.

ABOUT BIG DIRTY…
“We are only a very new and small company/brand, in fact I only decided to make it all official December 2010. All our cables are made to order in South London, which means we can do pretty much any size and configuration that our customers want, even if they buy a pre-spec cable on eBay we can always make last minute changes.
Despite being so small we actually make cables for some big organisations and industry people. We built a whole HD video and audio studio gallery setup for UK MasterChef that was aired earlier this year, a lot of the TV sound recordists in London use our cables for shows like MasterChef, Apprentice, X-Factor and Britain’s Got Talent. Our video cables are used by a lot of camera operators on these shows too. As well as this we like to make things that aren’t available anywhere else, which is why we make our own growing range of iPhone cables like our iPhone timecode input cable (these have been used on a Channel 4 drama and a feature film) and our iPhone mic xlr input cable (hopefully available soon!).
The main thing we focus on is making the cables to the high quality anyone would expect whether they are for TV/Audio industry people or someone who just wants to plug some speakers into their TV at home or iPod into their car system.”
• NEWS • We Are 1!
A year has passed with 19 Death Techno Mixes and 1 Special Mix Series under our belt. From worldwide talent, underground sensations and UK friends, we’ve loved every second.
There’ll be a stat update by tomorrow and a couple of surprises by the end of the week from myself.
Thanks to all friends, fans, contributors for supporting what we do.
This is just the start…
