Since the beginning of Freedom Club it was imagined to add vinyls to the output. The “Refusal EP” is the first of these vinyls. It features tracks by all six artists who are responsible for the first six EP’s already released. This EP is very much what Freedom Club is about: uncompromised dark beats and rough electronic sounds. Not defined to one specific style or genre but coherent in mood and esthetics: vague, raw, unpolished and dark. Auva Duhr, Monocorpse, The Wheel Of Rituals, The Untitled, Nihilist Sounds and ЯTRA all go for a full on attack mode. Some stay 100% true to their trademark sound while others explore and incorporate new dimensions and even push the limits of what you could expect from them. There is a lot of acid in the mix here and lots of industrial sounds are poured over you. When speeding up there is no surrender to the beat while when slowing down it only gets darker and colder. The “Refusal EP” must be considered a manifesto of Freedom Club. Celebrating the 50th release on Body Musick with a colossal compilation of tracks by artists from Colombia and around the world who submitted to the open call in early 2025. Special thanks to everyone involved.
