(CR127) Ten Years Inna Coma (2010-2020)
18 track digital compilation (2024 - Pending Production) and gatefold double vinyl release (2024 - Pending Production).
The final release for US web label Comarecordz distributed by ENDE Records. Comarecordz folded in October 2020 after the untimely passing of it's founder and Label Manager Ras Edwards aka sOuL_sCientiSt (RIP)
ENDE Records is proud to distribute the final posthumous release for a label that was so close to us it was almost incestuous. Comarecordz was a major inspiration on ENDE Records as well as a number of labels around the world in breakcore including UK label Core Collective Records.
Ras Edwards vision for a web label that included helping to give exposure to and promote a wide variety of artists from underground music styles from metal to witchhouse to goth to breakcore and jungle to noise saw a decade of more than 120 high quality releases and over 80 free DJ mixes driven by his boundless passion and enthusiasm for his label, which he promoted as often as he could from his home in West Virginia in the USA.
ENDE Records were avid followers of Comarecordz and I myself had already released on it as Noistruct before ENDE began. We were close friends and as of 2018 I was a part time label assistant at Ras request for assistance. We inspired each other on many levels and shamelessly poached each other's roster of artists....so to speak.
Ras Edwards was the only person in the breakcore scene running a label (after Matt Bleak) that I felt had a similar approach, work ethic and dedication to the music as I did.
In conjunction with the Edwards family and closest friends. We have stepped up to help them finance, compile, manufacture and distribute the final Comarecordz compilation that Ras Edward was tirelessly working on at the time of his passing. The compilation was meant to mark the tenth anniversary of Comarecordz on CD in 2020 but now stands as it's final release and it's swansong. It was decided it would sell better and be more of a fitting end to the label if it was released on vinyl.
To me personally if the compilation he spent 2 years working on just didn't happen after he passed. I thought that would be a travesty. It made no sense to me to see all that work go to waste.
Now it's been two years since he passed and it was a crazy two years for the world in general and after many delays. The time has come to see this project completed and to see Comarecordz given the final send off it deserves.
TEN YEARS INNA COMA (2010-2020) is a digital compilation hosted by ENDE Records on behalf of Ras Edwards Estate. ALL PROCEEDS OF THE DIGITAL SALES AND VINYL SALES go to the Estate of Ras Edward. ENDE Records takes no profit whatsoever from the sale of this compilation.
