…and go shopping….
“20thanks”.
That’s all you need to know.
Happy Thanksgiving / Black Friday / Cyber Monday / Tofurkey Day(s)

I Have A Couple Of Questions…
OK – shoot

(1) Can I get 20% off everything?

Yes – that’s why it says “20% off everything”

(2) What about stuff that isn’t listed on the website?

No – if it isn’t listed, it means we either don’t have it or its not in the sale for whatever other complicated reason that would be too boring to explain in detail here

Although generally speaking the vast majority of DWA’s releases come and go on schedule, inevitably every year there are one or two exceptions – particularly when it comes to vinyl, which as a medium not being widely produced is therefore more difficult to source reliably.

At the start of this year we faced some truly horrendous delays from one supplier (unsurprisingly DROPPED afterwards) with regard to the 2LP version of “CygnosiC” – which completely destroyed months of planning and publicity. And just recently, a slight ‘mare with the sleeves of Rave The Reqviem‘s “Is Apollo Still Alive?” the first batch of which we had to reject because of cracking on the folds, and a real horror show with the initial pressing of Die Sektor‘s “These Broken Shields” which came back simply infinitely looping a voice saying “I Am” over and over… (although these might be considered “collector’s items” in their own right SORRY we are simply going to SHRED all 200 of them to avoid any mix up with the second CORRECT pressing!)

Fortunately we have nothing like that to report – just an update on the production status of a couple of vinyl titles that are presently lagging a few weeks behind schedule: (1) C-Lekktor‘s “Radioakktivity” 7″ and (2) Nitro/Noise‘s “Censorsh!t – The Remixes” 12″.
In both cases, the vinyl itself was already delivered – and is currently lodged at our EU distributor Audioglobe’s premises in Italy. While historically-speaking it has usually been the vinyl itself where we experienced delays, this time in fact it has been the printing of outer sleeves – which have been produced separately. All that remains in both cases is for one to be united with the other – records into sleeves – and pre-orders will be shipped, with general release following…
To this end, we are now shipping sleeves to Audioglobe, Audioglobe are now shipping us vinyl…and we would like to thank everyone waiting on pre-orders of both these records for their patience, which will soon be rewarded (think “a couple of weeks” from today, as estimated remaining delivery time).

Overall, having now run through no fewer than FIVE separate suppliers for vinyl, we seem to have arrived finally at a fairly reliable source – which in turn may mean a few more titles being announced on vinyl in the near future.
“Watch this space”

Even as the cyborg horde of SERAPHIM SYSTEM decends on our imperiled planet, threatening to assimilate all things Swaggrotech, the foul-mouthed messiah of the sub-genre himself Jay Ruin returns with the brand-new single “All About The”.

An impressive 6-pack of tracks including remixes from Faderhead, Binary Division, Acidrodent and Alien:Nation, RUINIZER also brings the bling with his own alternate “666 Billion Dollar Mix”.

“All About The” is out now on DWA’s storefront on Bandcamp and spreading like an unpleasant rash across all other usual digital retailers: http://dwa-digital.com/album/all-about-the

The first single to be taken from the forthcoming SERAPHIM SYSTEM album “Automaton Assisted Annihilation”, the digital EP version of “This Is Invasion” is out now and features in addition to the title track a smashing drum & bass alternate version and remixes from NOISUF-X and ISZOLOSCOPE…

Tracks #2 and #3 (the “Bass Invader Version” and NOISUF-X remix) are exclusive to this release, while the ISZOLOSCOPE remix will also be available as a bonus track on the CD version of “Automaton Assisted Annihilation” (DWA390) – which is released worldwide on November 13th.

The SERAPHIM SYSTEM is landing – in a speaker cone near you.

As the final flourish of the Indiegogo campaign for DIE SEKTOR‘s US Tour, DWA is proud to present perhaps the most unexpected “perk” of all – a brand new single “This Broken Shield”.
The title track was supplied today as a free download to everyone who made any kind of contribution to the campaign so far,and who has therefore helped to take the campaign to 3/4 of the $6,000 USD target – so if you are among that number please check the Inbox of whatever email account you used to make your contribution…because you should find there a message from the campaign team including a code to get your download.
And to hopefully take us through the remaining $1,500 required, “This Broken Shield” comes also in 3 additional paid formats at various price points:

(1) Ultra-limited edition of x20 copies on lathe-cut 10″ vinyl, b-side = another brand new and previously unreleased DIE SEKTOR track “This Shattered Sword”

(2) Massive 36 minute 6-track CD EP in card wallet featuring both “This Shattered Sword” and a further 4 remixes from CHAINREACTOR, SERAPHIM SYSTEM, WYCHDOKTOR and the enigmatic FAULTS (see if you can guess who this is a new pseudonym for, from the music…) – limited edition of 200 copies

(3) 6-track digital EP

Release date for the CD version is Halloween – the day the Indiegogo campaign ends. The vinyl version will follow one month later – due November 27th.

With a little less than a month to go until the worldwide release of their second full album for DWA “Satellite Empire”, it’s time for us to unleash the second single from that album – the ominously-titled “Full Scale Revolt”.

And there has been no economy of scale involved in putting this together either. “Full Scale Revolt” comes as a 6-track EP featuring remixes from DOPE STARS INC., IVARDENSPHERE and DWA labelmates RUINIZER and SERAPHIM SYSTEM, plus the exclusive B-side “H.E.V.”

And it literally is “a B-side” too – because in addition to the digital release timetabled for today (October 9th), we have had the entire EP re-mastered for vinyl by Kolja Trelle at Koltron Music Production and sent it off to be lathecut on heavyweight transparent 12” vinyl. This ultra-limited edition of x25 hand-cut hand-numbered units will come mid-November with full-colour labels and a wraparound poster to display the clear nature of the vinyl through an outer PVC sleeve.

For the insatiable collectors out there, this limited edition clear lathe-cut vinyl version is another must-have artefact from DWA’s burgeoning library of analogue curiosities..!

For the third and final single to be taken from Swedish industrial metal-step crossover act RAVE THE REQVIEM’s self-titled debut album, DWA has taken full advantage of both the song’s length and the length of the 3 remixes presented alongside it to squeeze both 4 tracks of CD-audio and – on the first 100 copies ONLY – to lathe-cut the title track for vinyl playback.

Yes – you read that correctly. The first 100 copies of the “Is Apollo Still Alive?” CD are in fact “a hybrid CD/vinyl” – a format so rare that it doesn’t even really have a name and is only produced by one company on the planet. In fact, we weren’t even sure whether to give it our standard CD catalogue numbering “DWA” or our usual vinyl standard “DWV” – but “DWA381” won out in the end, given that (a) it IS “a CD” not “vinyl” and (b) only the first 100 units are “vinyl-cut”.

The CD comes with a special plastic adaptor already inserted, in order to facilitate playback on a record deck. The vinyl track is lathe-cut around the outer-most part of the CD, with the regular CD-audio data occupying the remaining space inside, and is presented in full-colour card wallet with mythologically-themed artwork executed like the previous 2 singles and album by DWA’s lead designer Vlad McNeally.

Intended as both a final flourish for the current album and an advertisement for the “Remix The Reqviem” digital album unleashed last month, this is quite literally “an analogue-only release” embracing both CD and vinyl technology to create a truly unique artefact. No digital release will be made. The title track can of course be found digitally on the original album, and the IVARDENSPHERE and W.A.S.T.E. remixes on the “Remix The Reqviem” album. The fourth and final track however is exclusive to this CD release – VPROJEKT “Version 2”, which is a substantially alternate mix to that which can be found on “Remix The Reqviem”…

“Is Apollo Still Alive?” is released on October 9th, and can be pre-ordered now. Be fast if you want to be sure of picking up one of the lathe-cut CD-vinyl hybrid disc versions:

Those cheeky chappies at CYFERDYNE are back – this time with a massive 2CD Limited Edition of current album “Keep Your Silence” positively dripping with sonic delights…

The smooth, assured sounds of this British trio’s second album “Keep Your Silence” saw the original release rise as high as #6 in the Deutsche Alternative Charts last year – as the band moved into leaner, cleaner and more polished production territory. “Keep Your Silence” demonstrates a quintessentially British sound reminiscent in parts of MESH or DEPECHE MODE on tracks like “Numb” and “Weak”, not merely in terms of vocals but also the plaintive synthpop melodies.

Capped by a captivating performance at Resistanz Festival and followed by a huge promotional campaign of release parties across both sides of the Atlantic, “Keep Your Silence” subsequently spawned the singles “Jigsaw” and “Numb” – the remixes from which are now compiled alongside another 9 all-new and previously unreleased remixes from PANIC LIFT, TERROLOKAUST, GINGER SNAP5, CYGNOSIC, SERAPHIM SYSTEM, C-LEKKTOR, DIE SEKTOR, RETROGRAMME and PETROL BASTARD to create the 2CD Limited Edition.

Packaged as per DWA’s other recent 2CD reissues in jewelcase with a 12-panel foldout poster/lyric insert, carton overcase and traycard hand-numbered on the inside, painstakingly visually-remixed from Vlad McNeally’s original designs “Keep Your Silence (2CD Limited Edition)” is the definitive collector’s edition version of this album – strictly limited to 100 copies worldwide.

Into their 3rd consecutive week of “bubbling under” just outside the Top Ten Albums in the Deutsche Alternative Chart, Greek duo TECHNOLORGY today release a second single from that “Dying Stars” album – the electroclash-flavoured “Damsel In Distress”.

Mixed and mastered as usual by Dimitris N. Douvras – engineer and producer of many of the top names in both the industrial and metal scenes in Greece – and with artwork as for the album itself by Vlad McNeally, this 5-track EP version of “Damsel In Distress” adds the exclusive “b-side” bonus track “Femme Fatale” and 2 different versions of remix by Ukraine’s GINGER SNAP5 – plus a digital release for the CYGNOSIC remix otherwise found only on the limited edition CD-version of the album.

“Damsels In Distress” is available now on DWA‘s own Bandcamp-hosted online store…and spreading out through all usual digital distribution channels from today:
http://dwa-digital.com/album/damsels-in-distress

Collector’s edition reissue of the current album from the American hardstyle industrial act!

Since dropping their debut “Blood, Sweat And Fear” for DWA in 2012, BLAKOPZ served as tour support for AESTHETIC PERFECTION‘s “All.Cities.Destroyed” 26-date North American tour over that summer, opened for SUICIDE COMMANDO, FGFC820 and TACTICAL SEKT in the US, and made their first European live appearance in 2013 at Resistanz Festival in the UK.

Mastered by Jan L of NOISUF-X/X-FUSION, their slick and powerful second album “As Nations Decay” took BLAKOPZ‘ already pristine production to a new level, while moving their music in new and intriguing directions – such as on “#culturedelete” or the almost ballad-like “Before The Rust” and title track.

Fans of the sound established on the 2012 debut “Blood Sweat And Fear” could hardly be disappointed either, with the inclusion of classic BLAKOPZ cuts like “Behind The Curtain” and “The Beginning”, the jackhammer instrumental “Turn Key Tyranny” or jokingly titled “Business As Usual”…

With stocks of the original digipak edition (designed by Nathan Winter of Industriarts) rapidly dwindling, the time has come for a special 2CD Limited Edition – packed with an outstanding array of top-drawer remixes (including 9 previously unreleased) from the likes of labelmates CYFERDYNE, CYGNOSIC, TERROLOKAUST, SIRUS, SERAPHIM SYSTEM, DYM and RUINIZER alongside scene stalwarts like ALIEN VAMPIRES, NOISUF-X and ESA, or emerging talent like CHAINREACTOR and WYCHDOKTOR.

Presented in 2CD jewelcase with 12-panel fold-out lyric booklet and a carton sleeve overcase (featuring alternate cover art by Vlad McNeally), the 2CD Limited Edition of “As Nations Decay” comprises of the original 15-track CD release as CD1 (including remixes by AESTHETIC PERFECTION, ALTER DER RUINE and CRYOGENIC ECHELON as bonus tracks), and the 12-track CD2 “Nations Reborn” – strictly limited to 100 copies only, all individually hand numbered on the inside of the traycard.

As with other recent 2CD reissues on DWA (some already out-of-stock), we expect this one to sell as hard and fast as the music is itself. The 2CD Limited Edition is sale NOW and available to order HERE:
http://dwa-digital.com/album/as-nations-decay

“Just” want it digitally? We’ve got you covered too. A standalone digital version of “Nations Reborn” is also available from today, adding in those 3 bonus tracks from the original digipak version to round things up to 15 tracks. The digital version of “Nations Reborn” is available HERE:
