Phenotype

For those who know  !

Dig Deeper and witness.

Back in the days, radio waves transmitted music across the land, taking listeners on a sonic journey.
Sounds of the future, where light gleams off objects and transports the mind to the farthest reaches.
Through modulation, time itself is stretched and warped—
not by racing BPMs,
but by the depth and movement of sound digging and churning the grinding machine.

Breath deep……

Contains such sounds as:

Lifted

Flowers

Legend (807-005)

Once upon a time, locked in a room where human contact was reduced to a screen and public outings required security passes and masks, the streets lay sparse and silent. Workloads only multiplied, yet I remained bound to a 1.5-square-meter home office. The coffee was exceptional, the sound system tuned to perfection, and the commute reduced to mere seconds—but the air was heavy with change.

As pandemic deniers mocked remote work and pushed for a forced return to the office, I received terrible news—friends gone within hours. Others, lost in tragic accidents, were only discovered through posts of those saying we miss you. Family members faced serious cancer diagnoses, and we had no chance to travel and help.

There are no words to truly capture such loss and deep feelings.

Legend they are !

Ausländer EP (807-004)

Back in 2008, moving into 2009, the culture shock hit me—and it hit me hard. Here I was, in a land where I wasn’t a native speaker, struggling to understand the language, dealing with the authorities, and without internet or an easy way to communicate back home. Most of the time, I relied on cafés for brief internet access, but back at the flat, there was no TV, no internet—nothing. It was a different time back then. 😉

The feeling of not belonging, of not being able to play any records, with so-called friends making excuses for why I couldn’t come over (even when I offered to pay), cut deep.

The result was Isolation—darker, colder, bangers built for the dance floor. 😉

Penetration was about the passion to resist and push deeper—to bring the culture we had worked so hard to build and weave it into society. You don’t fly across an ocean to make mediocre sounds.

This EP is about overcoming, not isolating—because when we work together, we are all stronger. And in the end, non-compromised music is the only thing that changes the situation.

INIT 6

An Idea in the back of my mind:

Techno and music reduced to a binary beat—like digital code—transformed into everything from images and sounds to full-fledged programs. Observing some lovers of the music process the sounds being played, while others simply dismissed it as noise, was fascinating. The concept of Java came to mind. Just as computers require the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) to decode and run programs, listeners needed the “run-times” to understand the music. Without these “run-time” modules, they could neither interpret nor appreciate the sounds.

Humanjava is another evolution!

SPIRITUAL EP (807-003)

“Spiritual EP” 807-003

This is a very special release that has been waiting a long time to be revealed. In the spirit of 807 Recording’s mission, “To Destroy Mediocrity,” artistic intent has remained paramount. Throughout this journey, no corners were cut in production, mastering, or talent. Of special acknowledgment is the mastering by Nilesh Patel of The Exchange Mastering in London. With his passing, this album took on even greater meaning and responsibility for me.

Out of this sense of responsibility, I did not want to release this quickly or cheaply. Unfortunately, due to many circumstances, it became nearly impossible to get the vinyl out, aside from a few promo white labels.

After over a decade of waiting, it felt like a disservice that no one was hearing this release.

The first track, “Gemini,” marked a major turning point in my music production techniques and personal growth toward creating my own sound and meaning. Facing many crossroads at the time of my 30th birthday, I poured everything into this track. It features deep, pulsating bass and a groovy, warm dancefloor vibe.

“Spiritual” showcases my love for dub techno combined with dancefloor energy. Over a decade later, it still captures my sonic signature without sounding mundane. Completing this track solidified the vision for the EP.

REQUIEM by Shamus Coghlan

Digging deep and with a slightly slower BPM I present to you Requiem. This is a bit more towards the Dub Techno side but with some heavy modulations that should dig you deep.
Requiem was done with a deep focus on analog delays, analog synths, and something for the mind to explore.

Combined forces on a very special collaboration with Sean Tate on Remember Why You Started Records RWYS 005 this was pressed to vinyl. Vinyl was mastered by the legendary Simon with myself helping get the digital files mastered with Paul Mac. We all agreed to make the artists sound the best and fullest over the loudest. In short the louder it is played the better it sounds.

The vinyl includes some very talented artists and exceptional and unique releases that must not be missed. If you love Techno, and especially Detroit style techno you owe it to yourself to grab a very limited edition of this vinyl.

Our History, Our Heritage, Our Culture Vol 2 RWYS 005

Artists Include:
A1. Josh Garret – Another Scarred Earth
A2. Roger Van Lunteren – Outer Views
A3. Shamus Coghlan – Requiem

B1. Space Time Distortion – Particle Accelerator (LHC Mix)
B2. Sean Tate – A Matter Of Separation

Thunder Bay EP (807-006)

In this modern world of technology it truly is a marvel that we can share our music across the world for all to hear in basically the same high quality that came out of the studio monitors. Yes I do have good monitors and acoustics so what I make here in the Magix Snap Studio is very close to what the final art should be. No loss in generations, tapes not being calibrated correctly, lacquers changing the sound due to the physical limitations but rather an exact representation with out middle men and incompatible costs not to mention compromises.

The Thunder Bay EP marks a change and direction in acknowledging where I come from, why I make the music I do and subtly pays homage to a part of my heritage. IT IS about the MUSIC and having it accessible to anyone who wants to appreciate this in the least compromised format(s).

Working closely with Paul Mac on the mastering I believe we have achieved some of my best sounding music to date. The Buzz EQ Paul used seemed to be the perfect tool to help us achieve a dynamic and not compressed sound scape that stretches wide, deep, with all the subtleness of the analog gear used. No question the acoustics in the studio have helped greatly to achieve a more accurate mix also and an great ROI but being able to send files back and fourth in perfect quality is no small change in the progression of how far we have come as a society.

Collaborating with the best people around the world to help push music and art forwards well not forgetting the important values quality is what this EP is about well being it accessible on all streaming services.
