Back from the trash

Last year we interviewed The Impermissible for his first time playing officially as his latest alter ego during Deadtown 12. Now, with Nekrosystem's Forbidden Zone 2 near, let's see what new ever since.

Welcome back! What have you been up to since last time?

Thanks. I've been mainly busy with the Melting Point EP I talked about last time. Besides that, I was also coordinating the 'Berserk vs. S.O.D.O.M.' party, that took place in February. This was accompanied by a record release I coordinated as well.

Furthermore, I'm busy writing music demos to compile some EPs, with the aim to release them on vinyl. Nothing is really done yet, building an EP is always a bit of a puzzle that must fall into place. I also played at some cool events. Examples are the two times I played in Hamburg at Strike Back (invites Speedcore Italia and invites No New Style), Rigormortis in the UK, and a bit closer to home at the return of Dr. Peacock's Innercore.

And last but not least, I have a little scoop over here. I'm back at the drawing board, working on upgrading the WASBEER live act with a new alt and vision. I hope to share more about that at the beginning of 2026.

Where do you get the inspiration from to make your music, even outside of music?

I can get inspiration from pretty much everything. A great example is my current work in progress. I literally had a dream that I was producing a track. I remembered how this sounded and successfully replicated the sound in this dream.

I get a lot of inspiration from music genres from the 80s, rock, metal, and ambient music, but also from movies and their scores et cetera. The list can go on endlessly. I believe every sound can be warped to a point where it's usable in producing music.

How does a typical production session look like for you?

I have a book where I write down my ideas and notes, where I pick something from. I always start with the sampling process if needed, like sampling speech and sounds from videos and movies. Then the actual soundcraft will start. It's mainly trial and error in my process. I feel a sound that I can make, and I try to replicate it or by dissecting/tweaking patches in certain plugins. If I'm satisfied with the result, the (quite lengthy) rendering phase takes place, to render the track stems. Then I mix them afterwards.

A tip I can give to other producers: always render multitrack and then EQ, edit, mix, tweak, et cetera. Don't do this on the current project file. It also doesn't burden your computer CPU as much 😉.

We already talked a bit about your Melting Point EP, what's the status of this?

The EP is released and is received well. It's quite a happy achievement that makes me hungry to release more records.

For those that haven't checked the release yet, you can listen some previews on Soundcloud. And for the vinyl collectors is the EP available at Ultimate House Merchandise (It's almost Christmas, so this could be a perfect stocking filler).

How do you usually prepare your sets?

I'm pretty much always preparing myself if I have the time before the set. Always digging through music and checking new releases. If I have to play somewhere, I compile a map where I put in like 40 tracks and do my thing with during the night. If I'm a bit short on time (like with the warm-up mix under here) I just go through my list and hope it turns out well. Which often does.

Initially I always aim to bring a mix of everything. My own music, tracks from others, cool music from the past, and so on. We are a small niche scene, so I love to play good music from other artists as well. The old music I play is mostly to make it not to be forgotten. Some stuff stays legendary in my eyes. For example, I can't even imagine doing a set without at least playing a track from Skullblower or Heretik.

What do you do when you're facing an artist's block?

I'm currently having one right now! In all honesty, I haven't had much inspiration in making terror nor speedcore this year. But I just can't sit still, so I create music from other styles. This is mainly French hardcore under my Wasbeer alias (no, that's something else than frenchcore). Occasionally I try to create something new terror/speedcore wise to get out of this block, mostly with the usual trial and error.

What's your vision about Nekrosystem's Forbidden Zone 2?

It's really a great evolution from the Speedcore Italia versus No New Style event we held a couple of times. Those nights were great and well received by the audience. Now with the third area included, it makes it even better.

Having three areas with extreme music, oldschool terror, and an industrial area, I think that there is pretty much something to check and discover for everyone. This is a vision that's often lacking on events nowadays.

What are you looking forward to the most during this event?

The visit of the SKRD crew. I remember seeing Loffciamcore like 10 years ago on a speedcore night in Breda, and it was one of the coolest sets till date. I'm also excited to the extratone sound of Diabarha.

A night like this is always a reunion with the Italian families of SCI and No New Style, so that's always very exciting. The nights at Mikroport are always a total social gathering, with lots of friends and fans.

Any last words?

I'm bad at convincing people haha. I am playing, I guess. No, but seriously, look at that beast of a line-up and judge for yourself. Are you craving rare oldschool terror at a party or some extreme music? Then what are you waiting for? Just come visit this event!

Thank you again Jonas and no other words needed. If you want to get to this unique event as well, you can grab your tickets on our website.
