The Contexterrior label was born when TuningSpork Records ringleader Jay Haze relocated to Europe from America. Contexterrior's goal is to bring sub-bass, click- and glitch-heavy music to your bedroom and to the dancefloor. The sounds heard are a bit darker, with use of field recordings, unusual sequences, and an experimental attitude. The label's first several releases comprised mostly material from Jay himself, but soon many of Jay's influences, contemporaries, and followers joined the crew, such as Jeff Samuel, Ricardo Villalobos, Robag Wruhme, and Inxec. Whether it's a peak-time workout track heard in the club, or a subtle minimal composition heard on headphones, Contexterrior's output will take you to a different mental plane with its sexy psychedelia.

CURRENT RELEASES OUT NOW:



Alessio Mereu & Andrea Ferlin - Deep Thoughts EP

CNTXT39 - 12"/download



Contexterrior is pleased to present the first collaboration from Italian producers Alessio Mereu and Andrea Ferlin, three immaculately produced techno cuts as slick as melting ice, with eerie voices woven so deep into the mix, you’ll wonder whether you’re actually hallucinating them. "'Deep Thoughts' is a great bassline roller. good all round package." -Konrad Black



Bloody Mary feat. Argenis Brito - Sed non Satiata

CNTXT38 - 12"/download



Bloody Mary’s Black Pearl made quite a splash this summer, receiving a storm of praise from DJs and critics alike. One of the standout tracks was “Sed non Satiata”, marked by its latino flair and gritty spoken word from Argenis Brito. We invited three of our favorite producers to put their own touch on Mary’s original, with three drastically different results courtesy of Shonky, Alex Celler and Sierra Sam.



Sierra Sam - Mannequin EP

CNTXT37 - 12"/download



Following his saxy single “The Swarm” on TuningSpork and his remix for Monika Kruse on Terminal M, Sierra Sam is back again with the Mannequin EP, featuring two tracks "Suit Yourself" and "Phony Man". Two sides of the same coin: an experienced producer showing his penchant for versatility. Played by Tiefschwarz, Todd Bodine and Martin Eyerer.



Danton Eeprom - Scoring Only To Be On The Safe Side EP

CNTXT36 - 12"/download



London-based Eeprom has proven himself a major force, having released on Freak N Chic, Tsuba and Fondation, plus remixing Röyksopp and Simian Mobile Disco. He made his first Contexterrior appearance on Bloody Mary’s Black Pearl album, and now delivers a full EP with the abstract “There’s Nothing To Be Afraid About Now” and the electro-based “My Life In Parallel”. Philip Sherburne says, "Great stuff as ever from Mr. Eeprom (plus, some of the best track titles going). 'My Life In Parallel' sounds positively luscious."



Falko Brocksieper - Adobe EP

CNTXT35 – 12”/download



Falko Brocksieper takes his idiosyncratic, analog-driven aesthetic into the shadowy depths of the Contexterrior universe! Vinyl two-tracker plus the bonus "Cool Water" only on the download version. Supported by Sebo K, Luke Solomon and Len Faki, who said, "Great for my late morning sets at Berghain."



Stefny - Blind Pig EP

CNTXT34 - download



Stefny Winter is a DJ of 10+ years, originally from California but having settled in New York City. In the past few years, Stefny has focused on production, releasing her tracks on labels like Archipel, Addon and AirDrop. Stefny finds inspiration in the resonances of our planet, from creatures dwelling in the depths of the ocean to the more troubling sounds of contemporary city life, giving them a fresh musical context within her productions.



Shonky - Chocotox

CNTXT33 - 12"/download



Berlin-based Shonky returns with his second EP for Contexterrior, offering four more immaculately produced tracks that take the label into a housier direction. Olivier Ducreux first made a name for himself as a DJ in Paris in the late 90s, and has lately been affiliated with the city’s reputable imprint Freak n’ Chic. With his new EP, expect stomping workouts with a plethora of interlocking rhythms, jacking syncopation and some heavy-duty organ action.



Lump - U Need Me

CNTXT32 - download



Whether crafting meditative ambience for the headphones or kinetic workouts for the club, Arttu Snellman is probably one of the most diverse electronic dub producers around today. “U Need Me” is perhaps Lump’s most sublime creation in his seven-year repertoire -- melancholy, but with a sense of hope; rhythmically forging ahead while at once peacefully floating in midair, with the haunting voice sweetly singing the track’s title throughout.



Bloody Mary - BLACK PEARL

CNTXTCD03 - full album on compact disc or download

CNTXT30 - Black Pearl EP pt. 1 w/ remixes by Sascha Funke and Jay Haze

CNTXT31 - Black Pearl EP pt. 2 featuring Argenis Brito and Danton Eeprom
