Jimi Tenor & Bizz O.D.'s Traffic E.P. out March 27th 2020 on Temple Traxx (TTXX0010)

Jimi Tenor & Bizz O.D. met 1989 in a Helsinki club called Berlin. They decided to move to New York City in 1992 to start the band "Public Extacy" which never saw the light of day. A few years later, Jimi had already left NYC but was visiting so the two met to record "Bizz O.D. & Jimi Tenor's Traffic E.P.". Released in 1995 on OZON Records founded by nobody less but Jammin' Unit and Biochip C.

Originally a 3 track e.p.but we at Temple Traxx thought that it was the right time to remaster and reissue this acid jewel and add an unreleased bonus track called "Girls". This 4 track e.p. shows once more that the two artists are real inovators and pioneers of a sound that is hipper than ever in 2020.

FIERCE RULING DIVA "The Berlin Project" TTXX0009 out Dec. 15th

Fierce Ruling Diva “The Berlin Project” TTXX 0009

For the end of 2019 Temple Traxx presents another Lower East Side Production: "The Berlin Project” by Fierce Ruling Diva.

The duo released their 1st house 12" in 1989 when Jeff "Abraxas" Porter and Jeroen Flamman made a name with their larger than life rave anthem "Rubb It In”, and the Sound Factory classic “Atomic Slide (You Gotta Believe)” as Fierce Ruling Diva. They played a pioneering role in the early Amsterdam house scene with their after hours clubs Subtopia and Planet E. In the early nineties Fierce Ruling Diva took their show throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico & Europe. In Germany they performed at MayDay "The Judgement Day" and Christopher Street Day, Berlin.

Earlier this year they released "Sniff The Bassline” and now with "The Berlin Project” they show once more that no-one else deserves the crown for deep, dark and pounding house music like they do: Fierce Ruling Diva!

Tracklisting:

A1 - The Berlin Project
B1 - Rave 2.0
B2 - Woman Like Man

Bizz O.D. "House Of Domination" TTXX0008

Bizz O.D. “House Of Domination” is her second 4 track e.p. on Temple Traxx. Bizz O.D.’s trademark ruff Chicago acid stomps are ear bleeding love songs to a hedonistic lifestyle she is celebrating to this day.

4E "Pills & Thrills E.P. out now!

4E “Pills & Thrills E.P.” - Vinyl 12” & Digital (TTXX0006)    

A1 Pills & Thrills
A1 Lift Off
B1 Purification
B2 Pharmacology

4E used to be Khan’s apartment number in New York City’s East Village back in the late 90’s. 4E became the trademark sound for his downbeat acid infused electro work. On his kitchen floor he produced a very unique brand of futuristic funk tracks with only a ROLAND TB-303, SH-101 and the Hip-Hop fundamental SP1200 drum sampler.

Besides a couple of 12”s for Force Inc. Music and the “Gentle Killer E.P.” on Freddy Fresh’s Socket imprint, 4E released the highly acclaimed downbeat electro album “4E4ME4YOU” on German glitch label Mille Plateaux.

Back in 1998 4E shared the now legendary 12” with I-F “Space Invaders Are Smoking Grass” on the “From Beyond Series” by Ectomorph’s Interdimensional Transmissions.

“Pills & Thrills” on Temple Traxx is four previously unreleased acid-electro stomper that are as funky and noisy as it can get on an East Village kitchen floor.

Masstrubator 12" out Feb. 1st 2019

Massturbator was originally recorded 1995 in Bizz O.D.'s kitchen in Brooklyn, New York. This hardcore acid 12" went straight to number #1 of the CMJ techno charts back in the days and has not lost any of it's Acid-Punk power. The four tracks are somewhat of a blueprint for bands like Animal Collective's hyper-jazz or Sleaford Mods proto-punk. They mentioned Massturbator in interviews as an inspirational force. For most DJ's too fast, too hard, but thanks to modern technology you can always pitch down 30bpm to please some fat ass, old, Berghain crowd. Jack Off and hail mAssturbator!

Massturbator live at South 2nd Street, Brookly/NY 1994

Bizz O.D. "The New York Push" TTXX0004 out now!

Bizz O.D. is somewhat of a mystery.

A known fact is that she released noisy hypnotic acid-house tracks on Force Inc. and Smile Communications back in 1993-1998. “Warship The Speakers” was taken very literally when Detroit was kneeling in front of their sound-system praying to the allmighty bass drum. “I’m Coming Out Of Your Speakers” went heavy rotation with Junior Vasquez at Sound Factory NYC. A collaboration with Jimi Tenor for OZON Records in 1995.

A few live shows have been proven to be Bizz O.D. herself. She would send someone, kinda anybody, to play her trademark Casio RZ-1 drum-machine and tweak her TB303 acid-lines. The vocal loops coming off some defunkt Dictaphone. So she’s never been really seen or photographed. Bizzi has ZERO social media except the mentions on Discogs and some up-loads on YouTube.

“The New York Push” is two previously unreleased tracks. Fetish club, distortion and newyorican-soul all in one. Set aside some pretty bizarr promo pictures that will add to the mystery.

It’s House, New York House with a Latin-Industrial subtext.

Ok, whatever

JAMMIN' UNIT "Remote Car Babe" (TTXX0002)

Khan presents:
Jammin’ Unit “Remote Car Babe”
Vinyl 12” & Digital (TTXX0002)  

OUT: February 20th via www.metabanana.airforce

A1 Remote Car Babe
A2 Don’t Eat Before Going To Sleep
B1 Life Shortening
B2 Wherever Distinguished People Congregate

Jammin’ Unit is not only my brother but one of the most prolific producer of electronic music since the early days of techno. He is one half of legendary electronic supergroup Air Liquide and made his way into history books with tracks like “If The Was No Gravity” and “Revelation” lately featured on Nina Kraviz - Fabric 91 mix.

“Remore Car Babe” was originally released on clear 10” via Temple Records NYC in 1997 and is now remastered by the man himself for our 2018 ears. Re-issued on 12” black vinyl for more gain and better audio quality.

In his own words, he describes the 4 track e.p. as: “The sound was created for headphone listening during remote car racing. Enhancing the feel of speed and aggressiveness was the goal”.

To me, it feels like a manga comic strip etched on vinyl. No headphone necessary to go on this speed racing trip of ecstasy and pounding bliss.

“Don’t eat before going to sleep but DO eat before going out!”

Yours sincerely,
Khan (Of Finland)

CUBE 40 "Bad Computa" (TTXX0001)

Khan presents: CUBE 40 “Bad Computa” TEMPLE TRAXX is my brand new label specializing in material from the early days of techno and house. “Bad Computa” was originally released in 1995 on Temple Records NYC and is now the second re-issue on TEMPLE TRAXX. Produced by my brother Jammin’ Unit, who also signed for re-mastering, and myself as Bizz O.D. in four-on-the-floor matters. CUBE 40 was always meant to be “The Ramones of Techno” by repeating the same track idea over and over. Compare with “You Make Me Function” and you’ll get the idea. Cube 40 played only one show ever: 1998 at Berlin’s E-Werk, dressed in ripped jeans and t-shirts, long black hair, and a can of Budwiser in each hand to resemble their Gabba-Gabba-Hey heroes. Hey Ho Let’s Go Bad Computa!
