Erik Stein, aka Wavewhore, has experimented with audio waveforms and styles of electronic
music since the early nineties. His early years were spent playing metal guitar in a host
of bar bands which toured the New York City area. In 1991, Well Primed records released
'The Thorazine Stretch Factor', a compilation which featured his first dive into the
realm of electronic dance music titled ‘Voodoo’. In 2001, Wavewhore founded Audio
Tactics, an audio production house dedicated to styles of electronic music such as
breakbeat and contemporary dub. The following year, Wavewhore’s ‘Bulletproof’, a drum
and bass track, was featured in a film by Julie Covello titled ‘Prohibited Beatz’
documenting the New York drum and bass scene. As a DJ, Wavewhore can be found delivering
high energy breakbeat or chilled out dub sets at various venues in his home base of New
York City and he currently maintains a residency called ‘Unbreakable’ at the award
winning Sullivan Room in Manhattan. His DJ skills have been featured on numerous radio
shows such as BreaksFM and upcoming shows include 92.3 K-Rock FM, Proton Radio and an
artist feature on www.BijouBreaks.com.
‘Breakin The Law’ is his first single for Electrofly and takes the label down a more
funky dance floor friendly route… jump up beats & bass stylleee!

I owe you one… Yeah, Breakin’ The Law is really good shit mate!" Jez of The Autobots
"Loving it every time I play it!" Bill Vega
“A new release from Electrofly is always welcome; a label who seem to have found
themselves in that kind of progressive bracket; the kind of breaks that I imagine Sasha
or Digweed might play, but definitely not Mechanoise. They have put out some really
interesting releases and occasionally some that have been, how shall we put this, a
little ‘light’. Anyway, this is not one of those and is actually one of their most
playable, dancefloor friendly releases to date. It’s strangely reminiscent of really
good, solid house music from the mid 90’s and brings a warm feeling with it. It’s pretty
simple really; a tight little groove which keeps repeating, warm synthy sounds are added
to the mix following variations of the same pattern and it just keeps building and subtly
changing. The 40,000 watts mix is the one that’s aimed more firmly at the floor. It’s a
bit more stripped down but with extra kick and attitude in the bass and drums. Simple but
really effective tracks that are instantly accessible. Solid.” Soto (M8 Magazine review)
