III questions with Doomcore Records - artists and fans give feedback

Doomcore Records turned 13 years a while ago.

We asked the label's artists, and everyone else, 3 questions about the label.
To get to know the "public opinion" and perception of the very label.
And here are the answers / results!
Also check our other features we did in order to honor XIII years of Doomcore Records: https://thehardcoreoverdogs.blogspot.com/2026/03/xiii-years-of-doomcore-records-and-its.html


Bohemian & Librarium

1. Back during the Covid pandemic in 2019-2020 we discovered Doomcore Records. We were searching for a place to release music under the first alias of Librarium (Zornus Maximus) which resulted in 4 releases under that alias. And also for new music styles for Bohemian to dj with. It was a great fit.

2. Our 10 favorite releases on Doomcore records and sublabels are the following:

Naos - 07 - June 2013 - Doomcore Records
Murmuur - 43 - March 2017 - Doomcore Records
Maƫl - The Night Eternal - September 2021 - Doomcore Records
Bazer - The Giant - January 2022 - Doomcore Records
Voldo - Nordmyt - August 2022 - Doomcore Records
Undercurrent (aka Li-Z) -Method to my Madness - August 2025 - Omnicore Records
Lunar Node - Opium EP - March 2024 - Slowcore Records
Mekronikal - Alone In The Dark - October 2023 - Doomcore Records
Lkpas - Sunlight Bar Lover - March 2022 - Slowcore Records
MIRVcore - We Are The Ones That Dwell Within - October 2020 - Doomcore Records

3. Just keep on doing what Doomcore Records does best. Being a great platform and label showcasing new talent as well as veterans of dark electronic sounds.

4. What can you tell us about your releases on the label? (Motivation, background, production...)

It all started with the Zornus Maximus releases. 3 Doomcore-ish releases and a Dark ambient album. Which led to the birth of Holmur. Librarium’s ambient/drone & experimental Project. And also the first official Librarium & Bohemian projects. Whether it is solo releases or collaboration projects, We are both almost always very intertwined in our work and projects. We love doing music together. We are brothers in Music and by blood.

1. When did you first hear about Doomcore Records? How did you get to know the label?

it was ten years ago, i don't have much memories left, but i looked it up in my files and i think the story was that i played at a party and a friend of a friend said you have to know low entropy and that's how it started

2. What is one of your favorite releases, artists, or tracks of Doomcore Records? And why?

AnTraxid - Akira
that i found on "Shatterdoom - Oldschool Style Doomcore Compilation"

3. What "wish" / idea / suggestion do you have for the future of Doomcore Records?

1. I discovered the label thanks to James F and Pardonax.
2. I’m particularly a fan of the Speedcore and Terror releases!
3. For the future, I think more regular activity on your Facebook page would be great to help the label gain more visibility. Happy 13th anniversary!

I think around 2018 i listened to some releases for the first time, when i looked for doomcore at RYM. I found out about it again during 2021 with the "Rave Disciples" release, the tittle caught my attention.

Artifact by Ryuroido at the best of 2023 releases. Awesome track, it's intense and beautiful.

I would like to listen to more occultish stuff and maybe more experimentation with old sounds, lofi stabs and samples, that gives the vibes of something arcane.

I have released stuff that may not be as polished as more professional or experienced producers, but always with the aim of bringing something unique and/or forgotten to the table, within the realm of hardcore and related intense music styles.

1. When did you first hear about Doomcore Records? How did you get to know the label?

I found out about Doomcore in the summer of 2023, when I was asked to make a mix for the Doomcore Records podcast. I didn’t know about doomcore as a genre, but was adding Doomcore Records releases to my DJ sets within a few months of the discovery.

2. What is one of your favorite releases, artists, or tracks of Doomcore Records? And why?

This is a tricky question as I don’t know the entire discography of Doomcore Records. I mostly know the releases since I discovered the label, 2023 and beyond. But I can confidently say that within the releases I know, my favorite album is “Stygian” by Origin of Styx. It’s beautifully haunting melodies, catchy beat patterns, and massive kicks define doomcore to me. I can relate to this music, and it is such an extensive album, with 24 tracks, there is something for everyone’s tastes. Additionally, the track titles are very amusing.

3. What "wish" / idea / suggestion do you have for the future of Doomcore Records?

What I would like to see for Doomcore Records and its subs is a continued pushing of boundaries and genre lines, as they are already leaders in that now. I am happy they don’t hide behind strict genre boundaries, and are willing to try new stuff. Taking on the experimental artist Disrrr and finding a home for that intensely mad music, for one good example. The world needs to hear Disrrr’s music, but how to present it as it doesn’t cleanly fit into any one category or genre.

1/ I heard about Doomcore Records through Soundcloud, don't really remember the year but i was by a track of Low Entropy posted on Soundcloud.
At that time, like today, i was looking for some new artists in Doomcore, Hardcore ... and i found his track.
So i looked at his page and the link for Doomcore Records and it was the discovery of this huge label , already with several albums in Free Download and new artists also to discover.

2/ The 11 by Ylion, that i released 2 tracks off on my label, on the vinyls Doomland and Doomland 2 with his alias Verminous Skumm
I really like his style of Doomcore. But there are so many albums that i haven't had time to listen to everything yet so maybe i missed other good artists / tracks ?

3/ I don't really have ideas, just the suggestion to produce vinyls in limited edition maybe like 30 vinyls or 50

4/ I released 2 albums : The Lost Souls in 2020, that was the period when i was producing a lot of Hardcore / Doomcore / Darkcore tracks. So i 'm happy that Low Entropy gave me the chance to appear on his label, and Darkness Is Your Candle in 2021

Doomcore Records, what a huge motivation when i discovered it, a label who gave a chance to a lot of artists contrary to a lot of labels who accepted only artists with a solid background / experience.
And i 'm also a small label who refused some artists , because most of the time the albums are released on vinyls so i can't produce everybody - i don't have the money.

For me, it is important to give small artists like myself the chance to share my music on a renowned label and to be heard by enthusiasts who would never have heard it without the Doomcore Records label.

After that, I released other tracks on compilations/albums from the label, which I also enjoy, being alongside other talented artists.
I have a lot of tracks never released in different styles because they are unfinished, that i keep some for my label and some for Doomcore Records and his sublabels.
So i will be back, like the Terminator says.

Thanks to everyone!
