Welcome to your local interweb graveyard where my passions live forever

I go by renderpunk as my online and stage moniker and, ironically, I almost never go on stage these days anymore. Being a recluse from the modern internet, neocities became my home and so I don't want my webpage to be a glorified business card, but instead a gateway to things I find interesting, topics worth exploring and music worth listening to — alladat awaits below ;з

Mid-spring 2024 I released my first ever EP called 'Gorehound' containing 5 tracks from 2020-2024 that sound presentable enough. This EP isn't meant to be a big breakthrough, rather just a dump of stale material to clear out my headspace and make way for new, better material. Although I'm considering releasing a track 'Echoes' as a single on all streaming platforms

Berenika Remixed

I didn’t expect it to be THAT rewarding when I first started sharing those first crude and rough remix demos with Artyom and Asya

"—Hey guys, what do you think? This might just work"

Their excitement propelled me into spending the next three months polishing and refining their signature sound of New Wave into Drum & Bass, Electronic Coldwave and Crystal Castles-esque house. Dreamland and Ghosts remixes came easy, almost one weekend of work easy, but Lovesong I got right from my third of forth attempt. By the middle of spring they were pretty much done and just sat on my hard drive until december, ready for their debut

When it came time to design the album cover I dove into straight Blender with an idea to reimagine Berenika's signature elements — disco balls and our beloved Mr. Skeleton. Then I received one and only note from the guys:

"—Give him a bolo tie please" It’s little moments like this which remind me why I love them so much

This collaboration wasn’t just about remixes — it was about being part of something I truly admire. Berenika’s trust means the world to me, and contributing to their unique sound is a privilege I’ll never forget

Witch House Mix 2024

PERFORMED LIVE ON 10/27/2024
Listen on YouTube

It's a very personal mix made from tracks that had major influence on my late teen years and shaped my current sound and style. Digging up most of these tracks took almost a whole week, but it was 1000% worth it, since I have a pure nostalgia blast listening to them all these days. Very end of the mix features killer tracks from CAIN's 'CRISIS CORE' released in 2021 which I haven't heard before and their inclusion was just the right touch to finish the mix

Despite that most artists featured stopped producing music a long time ago, YouTube upload of the mix has many links to almost all artists in the description

Due to time constraints some tracks regrettably didn't made the cut, but you'll probably hear them in the next mix. I ended up listening to these tracks almost daily ever since I released this mix

This mix was performed live as a part of DAUYL Vol.2 with a very poor reception. As per every event in this godforsaken city, it too was plagued with major mismanagement and lost any semblance of potential it had as a major cultural event that brings local talents together on one stage

In short, nothing good came of it. The venue, organizers and artists will never work together again, that's for sure

'175 BPM' as a whole

Read article Astana's Drum & Bass retrospective

My long-burning passion for the underground music and past involvement with the local rave scene have made me quite savvy in projection mapping, live generative visuals, music production, graphic design, and promotion. This skill set proved indispensable in managing my own drum & bass event 175 BPM, which unfortunately came to the end in late 2023. This is its story...

Spamtron - D-PAD

Listen on YouTube Download Archive

Released back in 2009, this album sat on my hard drive for ages. Apparently there wasn't any archived downloads of it anywhere online, until now. I also uploaded the full album onto YouTube and it already brought together at least two fellow spamtron fans

For some reason there's two version of this album — one listed on CrunchyCo has 4 tracks (Up, Down, Left, Right) and one listed on TRUE CHIP TILL DEATH and Rate Your Music with full 22 tracks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
