In 1992 Alec Empire and Carl Crack started a sound system
called Bass Terror.
About a handful of other DJs joined right away.
They promoted the first ever purist jungle and breakcore raves
outside the United Kingdom.
In Berlin squads and run down warehouses a new sound was
developed.
Journalists couldn't compare it to rave or breakbeat anylonger.
A new term was chosen:
Breakcore.
The sound was harder, faster and way louder than its UK
prototype.
One other significant difference: Bass Terror was highly charged
political with its Anti-Nazi and Anti-Racist slogans and artwork.
Empire and Crack saw the extreme right wing having a rising
influence on the German techno scene.
Bass Terror was formed as a movement of resistance.
One of the first tracks released was called "Hetzjagd auf Nazis!"
(German for "Hunt Down And Kill The Nazis").
Frankfurt based techno label Force Inc. Music Works started
a sublabel called Riot Beats to give this sound a new push
and platform.
A year later Alec Empire would start
Digital Hardcore Recordings (1994).
The original EP series were only released on vinyl
in the years 1992/93.
Now 15 years later, Alec Empire is about to re-release these tracks
for the first time in digital remastered format -
plus previously unreleased tracks from that era!

its cool to have those stuff available again…but were’s the vinyl version…this is old school, it was kind of a religious thing back than…to understand 1992 you have to put the needle down…
in the and its about feeling and the music - of course!!!!
but back than it was also about vinyl or not vinyl
big up! buuuujjjaakkkaaa!

we were lucky to save the original masters…believe it or not…the lackers form the original Force Inc 12 inches are all gone, the pressing plants are out of business, and my original masters on DAT tapes were almost lost when a water pipe broke back at DHR ages ago…
vinyl is the best media format I agree - I wish the rest of the world would see it like that. but we really made sure that the digital masters sound great. (they actually sound more powerful than the original vinyl versions - it was work, but we did it!)
