Dave Henson has been producing electronic music on the fringes of any discernible scene since the late '90s, operating outside of the boundaries of good taste and slowly formulating his own very particular sound. Since 2010 he's been recording as Nochexxx, and firing the influence of vintage electro and early bleep techno through an arsenal of barely-working gear to create a sound that's as grubby as Wolf Eyes but with the unmistakable slap of late '80s Detroit. Plot Defender is Henson's third proper album under the Nochexxx moniker, and is his most developed to date, anchored by clattering tape-distorted rhythms and synth squelches that make the TB-303 sound well-mannered. Whether giving the nod to Incunabula on "Between Two Stations" or to the masters Drexciya on "Stinson Fish," Henson's vision is never anything but unique, offering a cracked-glass vision of the last few decades of electronic music and doing so with a very British nod to the camera. Anyone who fell in love with 2014's transmissions from Ekoplekz would do well to investigate. Mastered and cut by Matt Colton at Alchemy. Edition of 500 copies.

Ramp are ecstatic to announce Nochexxx's debut album Thrusters. Beginning his career in 2010 with "Smashing Your System," featuring Jungle Brother Sensational on Werk Discs, and Ritalin Love/Timepiece for RAMP, NCHX has kept his discography lean. Keeping his head out of the scene, NCHX has built a castle of delirious arpeggiators and intertwining bass lines which recollect the rich synthesized lexicon of Drexciya and the prismatic glory years of Zomby. Thoroughly funky and profoundly nasty, Thrusters is a producer pushing himself to the next level, generating a kaleidoscope of sound that is all his own.

RAMP 044EP

Having junked his computer in favor an MPC and an 8-track tape and a rougher, more technoid sound, Nochexxx steps back into the Ramp fold with his unique, lopsided, turf-footed, beat-smithing, post-everything beats.
