About the author:
I'm Sönke aka Low Entropy.
"Hardcore Raver" since 1994, music producer since 1996.
I was part of the 2nd generation of Doomcore artists, that were directly inspired by PCP (I didn't include me in that chapter of the book because, well, that wouldn't be modest, right?)
I produced in many other electronic styles too, though.
Apart from other activities, I wrote for fanzines or ran my own, and ended up documenting a lot of the things that happened in the 90s, and the decades afterwards.
Other e-books by me include:
The Hardcore Primer - An Extensive Guide To 90s Underground Hardcore Techno Labels And Artists

The Fischkopf Records Guidebook

PCP - Legends In Their Life - The unofficial Planet Core Productions guidebook

And now it was time to tackle the doom.

About the book:
The Doomcore Techno movement exists for several decades now, and there never was any danger it would falter.
What's new is that there is now a growing interest in this music by the outside world, too.
Infos, facts and knowledge are hard to come by, though.
The book caters to the "newcomers" of the scene who are hungry to know more - and maybe the "old dogs" can still learn a few new tricks, too!
This book includes a history of the Doomcore genre, information about some of its labels and producers, musings on sonic themes, and a look at topics that might not be "strictly doomcore", but are related to the whole thing.
For now, the book is hosted on these Blogger webpages.
PDF and other formats are planned for the future - and hopefully, even a printed edition.
