Bleep

Dress to impress and prepare to be turned away at the door, here comes another Berghain mix! As the club’s resident DJ since 2017, Dominick Fernow - aka Vatican Shadow, Prurient, Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement, and countless other aliases - takes his 25-plus years of experience as an experimental noise musician and turns in a surprisingly snappy mix of the infectious and the insidious. Released as a double LP, Berghain 09 features darkly pulsing cuts from similarly brooding artists like Genesis P-Orridge, Virile Games and Los Angeles Death Cult. The release also contains a number of edited Merzbow tracks with a locked groove on each. These loops can go all night — or at least for as long as it takes to induce auditory hallucinations.
