Pre-Order LP Edition 

LP Edition will come on audiophile heavy weight vinyl and will include a digital download code for the tracks.

Pre-Order CD Edition

After successful releases on Robot Elephant Records, Disaro and Clan Destine Records, as well as a litany of digital self-releases and remixes, Minneapolis producer Fostercare releases a bold new album entitled ‘Altered Creature’. 
For ‘Altered Creature’, Fostercare worked 12-16 hours a day, endeavouring to create emotional electronic music that combines elements of techno, trance, rave and their many sub-genres. With heavy visual influences from the hyperrealist world of advertising, pornography, violence, virtual environments, post humanism and fetish societies; Fostercare has shaped a strange world behind his strain of electronic music. Driven by arpeggiated sequences, breakbeats and apocalyptic sentiments, Fostercare is music for the simulacrum - a peeling away of future underworlds, neon pulses, alternate screens, genetic maps and urban sprawl. Skating between many genres, his music is connected by its emotional intensity and third-eye hyperactive visions. 
His credentials as a producer extend back to 2008, where he earned praise for exploring a darker, syrupy, warped-808-inspired sound teemed with surreal visuals. Inspired by Deleuzian and Zizekian trajectories of thought, Fostercare makes music that’s impossible to pigeonhole. Never is this more accurate than with ‘Altered Creature’.

1. The Empire Will Drain U

4. Welcome World

“Although he’s seen as an operator on the Witch House movement,Fostercare’s music moves 
beyond those limitations” The Quietus

“The latest release from Fostercare has everything we love” Electronic Beats (on ‘Burn this City’)

“All the usual witch-house baggage doesn’t obscure the inventive sounds coming from 
the Fostercare 12” NME (on Fostercare and Ritualz split 12”)

“Blurring the lines of terror and ecstasy…one of my favorite tracks of the year so far”Get Off the 
Coast (on ‘Stray’)

It’s tonight - The Haxan Cloak at The Witch Haus / Slimelight!

Unfortunately The Church of Synth can’t make it anymore, but a replacement band has been confirmed - Heretics from London. Also the whole WH LND crew will be DJing, that is myself Robot Elephant, ••∆••, CRIM3S, and AMY KR∆KHAUS.

Burial Hex - new exciting addition to our 11/11/11 clubnight / viarobotelephant:

Burial Hex added as Co-Headliner to 11/11/11

Very excited that we manage to get Wisconsinite Burial Hex playing in London 2 years after his last show here, taking the concept of an “okkvlt klub night” to be taken to it’s literally extreme - the music of Burial Hex is largely inspired by old religions and incantations.   Expect everything from magic ritual, gothic theater and straight up post-apocalyptic disco machine!

Thee Single Spy are playing on a boat - The Tamesis Dock  -upcoming Wednesday.

Some song-crafty goodness to be enjoyed on a boat on the Thames - why not?

via goddontlikeit:

Got a great show on The Tamesis Dock this Wed with one of my long time favorites These Single Spies (prev. Thee Single Spy)

Main support are some new friends of TSS who I know very little about called Binko Swink!

Got a video here though which sounds pretty lovely.

The following is some shameless self-promotion of my activities with my record company robotelephant records ;)

Some very exciting times ahead- as eagle-eyed followers of Robot Elephant Records might have already noticed, we are releasing a record called “†‡† vs. Fostercare” in July 2011, containing possibly the most elaborate material yet by these two outstanding artists! I will announce further details soon. In the meantime, read this public service announcement by goddontlikeit about the Record Launch Party - which features another artist who soon is going to debut on Robot Elephant Records - The Church of Synth, and an exclusive preview stream of one of the tracks from the Ritualz side of the upcoming release:

I’m very excited to announce the debut London show from Mexican Witch House artist Ritualz aka †‡.

Described by The Line of Best Fit as “pairing snowblind, disordered haze with thundering low-tones, you hear Wolf Eyes, Portishead and Lil Jon in the same space, crushing the pretenses that divide influence. “

                           

Featuring on Robot Elephants ISVOLT Compilation & releases on Disaro we are really really happy to have him over for his first ever London show!

In support we have little known German electronic artist Church of Synth.

His tracks have been getting us very excited in Robot Elephant HQ and we will be doing a release with him soon!

                           

The show is at CAMP Basement on the 20th of June and more DJ’s and live acts with be announced very soon.
