Alec_Empire

amazing human beats - if Obama was listening to this right now in the White House, things could turn out good haha
Alec_Empire
these guys provided the best party music for us back in the day!!! red skins!!!
Alec_Empire
if you want to understand what independent music is about, take a look at Jamaica's soundsystems and record labels in the later 60ties , early 70ties.
Alec_Empire
watching the sun rise in Berlin...can there ever be peace?
Alec_Empire

Alec_Empire
classic 4am music on a Tuesday or Wednesday in my house
Alec_Empire
what can I say to that...
Alec_Empire
electro has always been a platform where the worst merge with the best. Dopplereffekt gives it a good name again. had to be said!
Alec_Empire

Alec_Empire
call this techno - 247

Alec_Empire
great driving music.or when you're not moving at all and sit in some tiny hotel room on the 16th floor and thousands of cars pass by.like flash lights
Alec_Empire
I dedicate this to the German government
Alec_Empire
good example of internet confusion. this track is not "microchipkinder", it's called "Sieg über Die Mayday HJ" - I recorded it in 1993 in Berlin. ;)
Alec_Empire

Alec_Empire

squidbrain
Lot of live SP cuts on blip. This is a bootleg of excellent quality though. Dig that late-90's angst. It has aged well.
Alec_Empire
let the gods decide.... when I was a kid I played in the German forest and I saw a bear...breathe slowly and don't look at him. he walked away...
Alec_Empire
The Berlin Wall!!!! I was a kid back then but when Sex Pistols sang about it, living with the nightmare became quite "cool" somehow...

Alec_Empire

Alec_Empire
there are moments when I feel like giving up on music. Then I listen to this and something inside tells me to never give up the fight...I'm serious.
Alec_Empire
this song united us, redskins, mods and punks back then in Berlin in the fight against the Neo-Nazis. thanks to Terry Hall & Dammers!

Alec_Empire
Michael Jackson ! stay with us! (to this day Thriller is my favorite dance record of all time.....!!! the song? the production? just amazing)
Alec_Empire
This snare roll inspired me to record the album "The Destroyer" back in 1994... Lee Perry...more important for todays (good) music than the Beatles
Alec_Empire
I love this piece... not that complicated but it's strange when you play it in the background on New Years Eve and watch the sky
Alec_Empire

Alec_Empire
