Berlin, 2014 — Dj Nephil sparks the label. A few breaks, some chaos… but guess what? We’re still here.
To mark the decade we drop a 25-artist compilation — no genres, no borders, no bullshit. Just raw energy and noise tearing through the system.
This compilation is not just a release — it’s proof that the underground never dies.
We do this for the music and for the love that keeps us all connected.
Stay wild. Stay free. With love from Gravitational Waves.
The Source Material Various Artist series is back with a monster record for its second instalment once again featuring some of the realest heads on the underground – YTP, Raw Takes, Ole Mic Odd & Alonzo, and Chupacabras.
Raw Takes offers up exactly that – perfectly imperfect electro jams direct from his machines. He takes charge of all six cuts on this new Zement EP. ‘901 Area’ opens with wobbly sheet metal synths and zippy pads that eventually coalesce around a nice snappy electro breakbeat. ‘Sxx’ pairs ambient pads with machine gun laser fire and ‘JMS’ then brings a more deep and reverential viber. The rich variation continues on the flip so that there is everything from tripped-out acid to hard-hitting and ear-drum-shattering electro-tech.
