about

78 78 is a dark and paranoid trip into an uneasy headspace. Thudding kick drums pound and shudder through the track and into one’s frontal lobe like a rush of blood through dilated arteries.
The eerie and industrial atmospherics, awash with reverbs, and the indecipherable but attention grabbing speech samples play into the psyche like memories of meaningful, but almost forgotten conversations.

Fearless and uncompromising, Shifting is an intense and electrifying burst of kinetic overload. Like harsh strobelight sunshine through trees, as one rapidly descends down alpine roads on a Kawasaki Ninja, the main component of the track - the discordant and edgy synth stabs, relentlessly rush through resonant reverb tunnels and under jagged outcrops of spikey delays while twisting and turning through the sonic landscape.

Fading takes the listener into a deep dub mountain valley of rolling thunder stabs and white noise rain, where each frequency, from the subterranean bass to the high-end wash, seem to find its own moment to pull one into the track while occasional high synth notes sparkle like intermittent sunlight on an Alpine lake.
