The principles of the Friends of Design have always been rooted in the intrinsic Divinity of Elevated Evolution for all things, in Godly Growth, in Managed Mutation, in Righteous Revolution, running through all areas of society like bifircating lines of electric fire, through all sign-to-sign interpretations we might have of Society and the Law, from the communities that comprise the human psyche, to family units and love affairs and philosophies and sciences, to the entire normative understanding of a political State itself.

It is the understanding that we bring to our music, to our lyrics, to the way of life we prescribe for you.

Everything is in fluent flux, everything is permitted, life is a laboratory and we are chemists in experimentation: but with the Goal that, ultimately, each experiment across all levels leads us closer to a Perfection that permeates through all levels. Through continual flux derives Perfection, true social evolution. Previous revolutions failed because they did not take into account that constant mental re-volution is required for there to be Progress to the Goal: not a single, linguistically interpreted political moment, but a continual dialectic within the assembly of the lesser Mind. Let the child be suckled until it has legs to walk!

***The new album "Stories" is soon about to hit stores!

About: Swedish musician, psychologist, skateboarder, painter, carpenter and frenzied multi-tasker - two A4's of writing wouldn't be enough to get down all my activities of interest (Born: 1989). I began taking my music seriously as late as 2021 when I completed the build of my own basement based recording studio (no more excuses). I began making songs in 2008. 

Been a member of more than twenty music constellations before I decided it was time to embark on a solo career, especially since its been second nature for me to come up with original music (for quite some time now), and here we are!

8th Effigy is an alter-ego electronic artist, which may or may-not be a mid-life crisis in disguise. Inspired by the melody and ambience of Brian Eno, the esoteric and visceral prowesses of Aphex Twin, the genre blurring irreverence of Radiohead and the experimental spirits of Cage, Riley and Reich. 8th Effigy's tracks are euro-rack modular synthesizer patch performances recorded live with minimal post production. Here on SoundCloud you can find curated playlist and new original material updated on a monthly basis. Follow me on IG or Twitter for early notifications of upcoming music.
