Embracing the philosophy of minimalism in
an industry driven by excess, Berlin's UK
techno luminary BEC introduces EMBARGO,
her innovative record label. BEC's musical
journey thus far has imprinted on the electronic
scene, and now she's poised to redefine the
space with this latest venture.
"Embargo is all about escape from constraints,
mirroring my own experiences and the
universal battle for authenticity," explains
BEC. The label's name encapsulates themes
of liberation encountered in life's various
battlegrounds, where one is often encumbered
by imposed limitations.
BEC's EMBARGO is a sanctuary for creative
risk-takers within the electronic genre,
fostering an environment where experimental
sounds can flourish. Variety is key, and diversity
and inclusion play a major role for her.
The label kicks off with "ARTIFICIAL
MALFUNCTION," a collaboration that exemplifies
EMBARGO's mission of pushing boundaries through
creative alliances, BEC herself overseeing the
creative direction and visual language all herself.
Together with Bulgarian producer KiNK the first
debut release is crafted — a raw, high-energy
odyssey marrying punchy D&B synths with pure
techno. The inception of this track was as organic
as it gets: a chance meeting following a gig,
leading to a spontaneous studio session
brimming with chemistry.

that EMBARGO promises, read our full interview

set to usher in an era of minimalist innovation and
creativity.
