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

Mastered by Paul Mac, Hard Groove, UK

Produced by: Shamus Coghlan

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.

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.

First Two Videos: “Docking Procedure” and “Distance”

There has been some new sounds happening in the background with Shamus well he is working on some new material. Not to be strictly dance floor in these two tracks/songs but more of a sonic journey. Yes there is a time to play with the eyes and ears together and something to hopefully expose more of the techno music. The two new videos linked below where shot, edited, by Shamus himself. They include time lapse flights from Toronto to Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada in Docking Procedure and the TGV train footage from the Journey starting in Munich-Paris, then Paris- Marseille, and a final stop in Dresden. If you are watching carefully you may notice it is all in reverse 😉

The Docking procedure is time lapse, well the Distance video is actual real-time speeds of the TGV. Both where shot with iPhone video and edited in Final Cut Pro X.

Sound in the studio for the music was done with Korg Volca Beats, Elektron Analog Four, Eventide Effects and Plugins. Lots of Analog there captured at 24bit 96KHz.

Please enjoy and thanks for checking them out.

Technophile Release Date November 29, 2010 – Keep your eyes open :)

Technophile EP (12″, EP)

(807) Recordings second release brings back the dedication of Shamus Coghlan’s quest to Destroy Mediocrity. From the very onset of a-side Truth Serum he releases an all out Sonic bliss of pure unapologetic techno. Fast paced and layered with analog modulation this sets the pace of those who dare to be tested.

180 Grams brings even the most hardened of “Technophiles” back home. With a BIG warehouse jacking beat, layered with deep, dark, cold war Sci-fi sounds you will be into Coghlan’s fantasy . With the same passion that started (807) Recordings this release digs in and farther in a dedication to the “Technophile”.
