"These guys between them have put out 3 EPs on Don't over the years and put simply, if you've never seen them live then prepare to have your minds blown! Below is a recording from the show August 2012 at Don't party, DO listen to it all the way through and it may go some way to explaining the genius, humour, creativity, bad-assedness and brilliance that you have to look forward to.
Expect a brand new, never heard before live set and i urge you not to miss this one out :)" - Jerome Hill / Don't records
"What we have here are three loud, proud and intrinsically psychotic dancefloor stormers injected with near toxic levels of squelching sci-fi funk, closely reminiscent of the golden era’s hedonism. Whereas Boner M’s two previous releases have been comparatively tamer in their genetic makeup – DJ Rush-type kick drum bombardments, Mills-ian melody shreddings and dangerously high BPM levels aside – this latest three-tracker seems to offer a more distorted and deranged snapshot of the man’s 4/4 ideology, perhaps even looking outside of techno’s oppressive foothold for inspiration.
Whether this is true or not, “Kopkopkop” – which actually represents the gentler side of Boner M’s furious beat hysteria – isn’t exactly your average techno workout, and although its arrangement broadly adheres to the common criteria, there’s still a high dosage of grit manifested in its fullest thanks to the grainy, almost VHS quality of its texture. Moreover, whilst the progressive build-up of slicing snares extends for almost the entire course of the track, Boner M allows the rest of his sonic battalion – composed of sludgy, torn low-frequencies and moulded drops of saturation – to penetrate violently into the mix and produce a thick sphere of sweltering technoid noise.
The situation only grows more hysterical with “Poke”, where we’re now fully immersed into a brutal clash of sounds which, apart from their more immediate Birmingham slant, sound impressively fresh and surely noxious enough to cause an abundant burst of euphoria on any large soundsystem. Each individual sound is raw, dirty and ridden with just the right amount of hiss, whilst the arrangement sounds improvisational and largely DIY, especially once the initial slot of overdriven bass-drums and the track’s recurrent synth stab lose themselves in a winding cyclone of tape bypass, only to end with a sudden halt of the machines resulting in a true poke of the senses.
The intensity remains intact on “Fakmii” which seems a fitting way to end Boner M’s debut for the Pennyroyal household; the hellish wormholes of the first two tracks would have seemed like leviathans next to a weaker, less daunting counterpart. However, the preceding four-to-the-floor flex is now mutated into a more broken, more electro-sounding prospect, where its individual parts have much in common with the Bunker or Panzerkreuz mentality of large, distorted, fast-paced 808 punkism. This Finnish producer really shines through on this final number, where we enter yet another dimension of his aggressive techno mind-frame and experience what could have been the possible soundtrack to the xenomorph’s terrifying corridor jumping in Ridley Scott’s Alien saga." - Pietro Barbieri-h

VÄÄRISTYMÄ
Minimism Records // Innocent Hands Recordings // Ilse // Field Effect Records // Rajatapaus Recordings...
Janne Liimatainen and Jarko Hedenius, two brothers from Helsinki, Finland, began creating music with computers in 1992. Within a few years, the computers gave way to the raw and primitive world of analogue gear. When some experimental, self-made sound-sustaining structures were added, the music began to evolve into a more unexpected and exploratory direction and vÄäristymä was born. The music was created without synchronization, without any kind of metronomic coordination, and recorded exclusively in one take. During the group’s first ten years, a lot of music was made but never published. The archived songs had to wait for the last few years when vÄäristymä started to use their archives to produce music videos with the same uncompromising spirit with which the music was originally created. Today, vÄäristymä's works can be heard and seen on many different labels.
STAK ETOP
P'tit Gris Records // Spin Dynamics // Skeletor Records
Musician, DJ, true underground activist, label owner of Tenkale. In fact since 1999. If you hear about a Finnish illegal rave in the woods, or in an abandoned factory, you can be sure it was done by Stak and his team. The tracks he writes on analog equipment built personally in his underground lab in Tampere. In them you will find a deep and brooding minor nuances inherent to residents of Suomi!
funktastically pimplicious wonktastically spaztastic wotta mess.... a.k.a. that cunt who don't take request's ;)
He has played at various squat parties around london as part of sonic sound system, including multi-riggers and also at, what he would say is, finlands best techno nightclub "ctrl alt del", also at electro evangelists club night "fly-gotic", as well as playing on nye 2012 in borken, germany, for the bazzmacho crew, also on nye 2013 for E.T.C in edinburgh, and he has played at jerome hill's club night "don't- techno". He has also played on illfm.net/, pitchless industries radio, and electro evangelist radio.
He now hosts his own internet radio show's, "the mid-week wonkfest with wotta mess" and "the warm up to don't", and has also become a bit of a regular feature on the feierAbend Kombinat/Bazzmacho friday mixlr.com internet radio link up session.
The main style of music he plays is techno of the wonky/brighton genre, also known as wonk or no-school techno, however he also incorporates into his mixsets hard techno, underground electro, brakes, brakecore, hardtek, mutant bass, mashup stuff, noize, max bygraves, rolf harris, and various other nonsense, and anything with a wonky twang. I guess the best way to describe the music he plays is to call it "genre bending techno wonk" as you can never be sure what sort of tunes will get thrown into the mix. Also he plays a lot of crossover tunes causing more confusion as to what genre this dj fits into.
Regardless of what you want to call it, his aim musically is to wonk your senses, and make you jerk your limbs to the wonktasticlly spaztastic sound which other techno does not offer.
So be prepared to have your senses well and truly wonked!!!!
