HE! Extra - released on Hicc Records

Off the Cuff 2 is the second in a series of sort of remix albums from 'Distance' where they often pissed completely turn songs inside out just for the hell off it to make them sound completly different from the way they should sound! - Hicc Records

Distance - Off The Cuff

HE! Extra - released on Hicc Records

'Off the Cuff' is the first in a series of albums by Distance and also to follow in the future by other Hicc Records (including DIH, M.A.N. etc) which highlight the band's ability to remix and in some cases de-contrast other artists altogether.

Some of these tracks will have been released previously, some of them haven't but all certainly in the case of 'Distance' for example their ability to change frequently a original song to such a degree it is impossible to recognize in it's original form. - Hicc Records

Distance - Distance

HE! Extra - released by Hicc Records in 2006

Distance was formed in 2005 by Andy N and Tony and the bulk off this recording was recorded over one day in Wika's house during a rainy afternoon at the end off 2005.

The music wrote itself.

Distance is for fans of Flying Saucer Attack, Bardo Pond or people who like Post Rock where the form outstrips the music. - Hicc Records

Distance - Distance II

HEMP014 - originally released 2006

1bomb1target - Sets



HEMP010 - originally released 2006

Austria's 1bomb1target blur the line between DJ mixing and live performance with these two live sets. VERY harsh noise, not for the faint of heart.
