Praxis News for July 2012
The Party at Subversiv and New Releases
First of all a big thanks to everybody who played and to everybody who partied on June 9 at our party at Subversiv! For us it was the best party in a long time and a success both artistically and in so far that about 250 euro were raised for the printing (and other) cost for the forthcoming 12th issue of datacide.
You can find some cool pics of the party here:

Praxis 49 – Bulkrate: In the Temple of the Serpent
Praxis 50 – Electric Kettle: News from Berlin Also just out is:
DM12004 – V/A: Accretion EP from Darkmatter Soundsystem featuring tracks by Minion, Fiend, Poxxe, Resurrector and Baseck, which is exclusively distributed by Praxis. all releases come with download codes for free high quality downloads from our bandcamp site, where you can also buy just the files if you don't care about the vinyl. New Praxis Online Shop The Praxis Online store is getting a complete makeover and will be launched in the next few days in early July! The shop is completely re-designed both graphically as well as running on a different software. In terms of content there are many more audio snippets as well as embedded bandcamp players or youtube/vimeo etc clips. In general there will be a lot more information about the different items. Hundreds of new scans and snippets have been added and a lot of prices have been slashed! Get in touch if you want to open an account before the official launch and help us test the store! For shops, distributors and wholesalers there is a special login which will enable them to see the distribution prices. Please contact me to set up a distro account. NoiseAngriff
In the meantime the regular NoiseAngriff nights at Lauschangriff continue. The next dates are July 4 and July 18. After this we will take a summer break for one month and will be back September 5 and 19 etc.
Please check our blog here for line-ups close to the dates:

Praxis 20 years anniversary
At the end of November and the beginning of December 1992 the first two releases on Praxis were officially released. This means the label turns 20 this autumn!
We are currently in the process of organizing a few events to celebrate this – again, if you’re interested, please get in touch (praxis party and datacide event could also be combined!).
Next releases?
We have many new releases in the pipeline but not the funds to realize them as quickly as we would like to – Help us by ordering Praxis records directly from our shop, downloads from our bandcamp site and support datacide by taking out a subscription!
We’d like to hear from you:
Give us feedback about the new releases, the new shop, your encounters with Praxis over the last 20 years.
