Bleep

Fundamental Records presents '100 tears' a brand new album from DMX Krew.

This is a one off exclusive Bleep edition of 100 copies pressed on deluxe double white vinyl and housed inside a metallic cardboard jacket screen printed by hand by designer Alek Stark. Below are a few words from Ed DMX about the making of the album.

These are nearly all tracks that were written at the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014 when I was in the process of moving house, which meant I couldn't have my studio set up.

Instead I made these tracks using one or two synths and one drum machine, recording into a laptop without a mixing desk. I guess this is the way a lot of people make music but it's new to me. Having the restriction of only a few pieces of equipment on each track helped me to focus on musical ideas. When I felt too restricted by the machines in use, I would put a couple away and get a couple of different ones out of storage.

So the whole thing has a slightly different production vibe than some of my stuff, and a slightly different thought process, but the inspiration is the same: science fact and fiction mixed with the emotions of daily life.
