A NIGHT TO REMEMBER! THANK YOU!
We're still at a loss for words - how cool was that again? Thank you for a wonderful evening, for coming from near and far and for making the third CT Label Night a super success! Thank you for the great atmosphere and your kind words - but most of all, thank you for supporting our bands - there was something for everyone musically! Nights like this are what keep us going and motivated.

Thanks to our wonderful bands IAMTHESHADOW (including Kristien Cools for the guest appearance), LOVATARAXX, NECRØ (for the first time live in Germany with their debut album, which will be released in a few weeks) and Iamnoone for their great performances, the wonderful time together, the warmth and friendship... to Flo and the great crew of Das Rind for their trust, hospitality and professionalism. DJ Lippe (Jörg) and DJ Greywave (Jens) for the cool music at the aftershow and their friendship and to Thomas for the great photos!

See you next year!

New Pre-Order!

We are happy to support our friend Javi of JG OUTSIDER with his first solo album "Despierto" which is up for pre-order now - once again emphasising the diversity of genres on our label over the years! Official release is November 8th and you can get the album on CD and in digital format via Cold Transmission.

After a long period of inactivity, during which he recharged his batteries for his return to music production, JG Outsider took up the challenge of recording his first solo album in this new phase of his musical career. EBM, industrial sounds, post-punk songs with his own vocals and high-level collaborations make up this work. It is undoubtedly a musically mature album that shows the identity of this chameleon-like artist with a career spanning more than 30 years. The album also includes great remixes by Nightcrawler Music and Spammerheads as well as a collaboration with Ruth García/From Hell.

Buy on Bandcamp.

New Music by INCIRRINA!

Our lovely Incirrina just released their brand new digital double single "Immersion"! Available now on all platforms!

Immersion : A Poem and two Songs

The Poem
We gasp for air
In liquid jails
We learn to breathe
When all else fails
Inspiring people
Turn breath to choice
For us to share
Our human voice

The Songs
Presence - A depiction of a moment
A sudden difference in the flow of time An event
The Other as an autonomous entity Revelation as beauty
Ecce Homo then means Regardless
No desire No following
A presence inspires a hovering moment of realization
It breaks down barriers Outside the comfort zone
May be dangerous May lead to nothing
But it’s our only chance

Alien Room - An allegory
Violence behind closed doors Living room Science fiction movie is on
Isolation Dark space As if elsewhere As if no one knew
Chorus parts: Traditional lament voices for a scream in void

NEW RELEASE

The fabulous debut album "As Above So Below" by our DEUS EX LUMINA is finally out now! 18 tracks including re-mastered versions of some his hit singles combined with cool new tracks!

This album is a testament of resilience and the transformative journey of the soul, delving deep into the realms of darkwave and newwave.  "As Above So Below" is interconnectedness, the idea that we are all one. The album weaves this esoteric concept into its haunting melodies and atmospheric soundscapes, creating an enlightening experience that is both ethereal and profound. Each track invites you to explore the depths of your inner world in the vastness of the cosmos, blurring the lines between the seen and the unseen, the known and the unknown. Some songs are best enjoyed with wine, some on the dance floor.

Get your version on CD, a purple Vinyl (approx shipping late summer) and in digital format on Bandcamp or in our CT Webshop! The album is also streaming on your favourite platforms!

LIVE! Meet Deus this Sunday at Amphi Festival in Cologne/Germany presenting his new album live! Stage time 15:05 at Orbit Stage! See you there!

New Releases by IAMNOONE & NOROMAKINA!

Our IAMNOONE just released the second single "third, fourth and fifth" off their new album coming in October this year. In their own words: "Once we started discussing our experiences, we noticed some pattern: it’s kind of easy to get to do something for one or two times, the following occurrences, though, tell some story. We realized the third time we did something usually was not a coincidence, the fourth time it meant we were really serious about it and the fifth usually meant we would be going on indefinitely. Out of this unsung aspect of life, we wrote a song, jotting its lyrics right after shooting a video at the seaside. We wish you want to follow us along the least known paths of life."

Available now on Bandcamp and also streaming everywhere!

Our NOROMAKINA also has a new album coming soon! "Insomnia" is set for release on August 30th. Crafted with the dancefloor in mind, "Insomnia" delivers pulsating beats, haunting melodies, and an irresistibly dark atmosphere. Each track is a testament to Noromakina's innovative approach to music, blending vintage synth sounds with modern production to create a unique and immersive experience.

The pre-order phase has just started - you can enjoy the new single "diewithyou" already on your favourite streaming platforms. Available in both CD and LP formats, "Insomnia" is a must-have for enthusiasts of dark electronic music. Secure your copy today and be among the first to experience the electrifying energy of Noromakina's latest masterpiece.

Preorder the full album now on Bandcamp or in our CT Webshop!
