**FS012 Pulsific Planet : Asteroid Is Out**
The new era is on the move, and Void Tactical's Broken Bass is back on the scene, announcing Pulsific Planets debut release. Sure, it's a new name the man himself hit the scene as Selector Catalogue and a From the Gut collaborator back in the Detroit years. An old hand in Void Tactical, and the mastering engineer of our very first record, he is also the owner/operator over at Reject Records (Ann Arbor, MI).  An amazingly detailed and versatile producer, in the Asteroid EP he presents his next equation, melding the intricate programming of Breakcore with dance floor vibe of Broken Beat.  The result is explosive, and provides us with three mixes of hard broken acid core taken to maximum splinter level, a unique perspective with deep roots in sound of the Detroit Metro Area. Asteroid M is the DJ friendly slammer, complete with mix-in and mix-out segments for moving these staccato beats in and out of other tracks. The original Asteroid plays 2nd, supplying the full epic statement of slow build zooming from outer to inner space. And that's not all either, an expert level acid mix is available only for download if you spring for the fully quality waves at bandcamp.  Composed, mixed, and mastered by one man alone - whether you know him as Pulsific Planet, Selector Cataloge, or Anti-Cheat the situation is undeniable, we've got one skilled craftsman on our hands here.

Another long time From the Gut ally, Eric Stephenson, steps in to provide original artwork, with final layout is by Key. After a break, this is our first release of 2013 and sets us up for another big round of releases we have in waiting!

**New Void Tact. Website is... almost... done....**
What can we say.  This was supposed to be done in August.  Now it's March.  Turns out that the project of organizing all our releases, designs, writings, artists, show fliers, and transformed space pics is kind of a huge project.  It's so close that we can taste it, but still need to spend a few more nights in the zone.  In the meantime you can satisfy yourself with the knowledge that we'll be releasing the underlying CMS and unstyled html stack as open source, so if you have a record label that needs an awesome site, you can join in the fun (and also consider contributing the cause if you've got skillz).


**European Tour wrap up / Detroit Industrial heads up**
What can we even say, there is still so much to tell about out trip to Europe that we haven't had time to put out there.  It's like a quantum memory that's bigger on the inside than on the outside.  Once our website goes up you'll be able to catch up on the fragmentary archive, while we run the cycle again and start planning for more international collaboration with those of like mind.

We'd also like to direct some attention back toward core in Detroit, where some new structures are emerging.  Some of our best collaborators are getting their node in order with a new project called Detroit Industrial.  Check Fluxion, Redrot, Deadlines, Adjust and others on March 16th in Detroit if you are in the region!  Solid.


**Upcoming releases!**
2013 is shaping up nicely.  We're still keeping most of the plan secret for now.  If you've got your hear to the ground you might know that Cry of the Peacocks and Fluxion both have Form and Structure releases in the works.   What you don't know if that we've already got Void Tactical Media 003 vinyl prepping for production and a good chunk of our gang of Form and Structures for 2013 plugging into the channel.  VTCL003?  We're not saying who it is just yet, but trust us it's gonna feel really good.


So long for now, but lots more in in the gears.  This year will be a great one for continued coordination of music, art, and ideas.  To collaborators and allies : be in touch!!

- Void Tact.
