Antifur is one of the original hardvapour labels (alongside HVRF and – to an extent – Dream Catalogue). It’s ostensibly run by a man from the Ukraine, but it’s truly the project of… spoilers!1 Raizer is the label’s first hardvapour release in a couple months (they issued a jazz/neoclassical album in September 2018), and it’s by the artist Anubis.

I guess we’ve got the parody-sequel of wosX’s End of the World Rave here. PERREO DEL FIN DEL MUNDO (roughly translating to “end of the world rave”) by SIMON OPTIX is a forty-one minute megamix released by the hardvapour label Antifur. This album is pretty much entirely a sample curation work of reggaeton and Latin-American hip-hop music that’s been pitch-/tempo-shifted […]

The eight tracks here are probably best described as lo-fi samples of East Asian traditional music with a sample curation vibe – although given that it’s antifur, it could very well […]

Hot off of last year’s Industrialism is new music from hardvapour artist Baiyun. Music for Trading is a new four-track EP for the Antifur label, which is owned by wosX. Music for Trading is industrial techno music for fans of Garbage by Autechre, minus the focus on overwhelming ambient. Each track is clearly and cleanly produced in contrast to the […]

Say what you want about hardvapour as a whole, but Antifur certainly does push the envelope of avant-garde in music with a lot of its releases. Ape Head by Tommy Tommy II is like a mix between the vaporwave style of ECCOJAMS with hardvapour music, featuring extensively pitch-/tempo-shifted and screwed vocals with the electronic distortion found in 2017/2018 hardvapour music.
