A label dedicated solely to the output of the ffm shadow orchestra and syrius 23 aka darius g

Zone 1 - FFM Shadow Orchestra - D.N. Acid

Words fail me to describe this record. The chanting goes

"from here to there,
from star to star,
from atom to atom,
i'm surfing..."

And i think that puts across the sentiment of this record very well.
But if we were to use more technical terms, it's the trademark ffm shadow orchestra style blend of techno, doomcore, and hardcore. And one beatless dark ambient that is described as being the ritualized "terminator of death".

99 / 100

Zone 2 - FFM Shadow Orchestra - Killing Zoo

If we want to describe it by poetry again, the lyrics here are:

"It will make you feel
like the rest of the world
is in a bubble of glass
and that you're rubbing up
against it
like a bad
windshield wiper."

While this might sound not so pleasant, the surreal content of the above quote is definitely heartfelt there.
4 tracks again, 2 faster ones, and 2 more doomed ones.
"Je suis un chien".

98 / 100

Zone 3 - Darius G. - Starfucker E.P.

A very libidinal release on interzone.
The style is oldschool gabber, underscored with fast-paced synth madness, cooked up with a syrius 23 twist.

55 / 100

Zone 4 - Darius G - Addicted & Insane

Going in the gabber/terror direction again, with metal guitars and everything.
Super bleak mood!

61 / 100

Zone 5 - Darius G. - Trash E.P.

A more experimental release, with different sounds. Includes some "slower" tracks that border on doomcore.

62 / 100

Zone CD 1 - Darius G. - First Exit: Interzone

A compilation featuring all the tracks from interzone 3-5 (i.e. all those released under the "darius g." Moniker), and some bonus tracks.
