Louisville, KY’s Backbreaker Recordings recently dropped their first single, Body Language’s “Hijack” EP, with a bang. Backbreaker spans the future sounds of acid house, electro and techno and happens to be one of only a handful of electronic labels fronted by women. The first release from Body Language, comprised of label owner The Lady Foursquare (AKA The Riveter) and The Sad Robot (AKA Kool Disko Kurt), is already getting plays on the national scene. The cuts are getting dropped by artists ranging from house masters like Bear Who? to the techno greats Frankie Vega and Sassmouth. Their debut EP features two versions of “Hijack.” The first is a smoothed out, more minimal mix from The Sad Robot; the second is a seering synthed out jacker, just what you would expect from The Riveter.
