Cult classic remix wars (Wumpscut, Haujobb, FLA, Die Krupps, 16 Volt, Hate Dept.) reissued on vinyl in very limited editions – get yours now!
Twenty years ago, the ‘The Remix Wars’ concept was born. The concept was simple enough: two artists remix one another and release the results on a collaborative CD. On the 20th year anniversary of the launch of ‘The Remix Wars’, Artoffact Records will release the first 3 volumes (Strikes) on special edition vinyl. The three releases are as follows:
1/ Strike 1: Wumpscut vs. Haujobb (order here for USA/CA, order here for Europe) 2/ Strike 2: Front Line Assembly vs. Die Krupps (order here for USA/CA, order here for Europe) 3/ Strike 3: 16 Volt vs. Hate Dept. (order here for USA/CA, order here for Europe)
Each record will be released in 3 formats: black, colour, and collector’s half-half effect, the colour schemes for the coloured vinyl were selected to reflect the original colours of the CD releases. All audio has been remastered for vinyl.
You can get hold of all colours and all editions in one go too! Order here for USA/CA, order here for Europe to get the massive 9 vinyl disc set.

More people read Side-Line than ever, and there is still no paywall and no advertising. Readers pay for it instead - from $5 a month.
Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
