I made this track because this energy is so intense that painting or dancing won't be enough to express this feeling. I recorded frog sounds from my hometown using my phone and then injected some of my distorted vocals and blended it with sounds of cicadas I recorded from Antipolo. This is my first ever track and I was so entranced working on it. Frogs are fantastic singers, it's always a rainy season delight in the province. This is a celebration of my intimacy with the land. I've never felt such bliss and happiness with my hometown soil.

I just walked a ball and my Sabugatti was gone where I parked it. I should've listened to the sound of my engine while I was on my planet. Oh well, it's missing now. What to do? Where to go?

a little nostalgia: vogue beat + video game c*nt, here's an ode to Jenny the Bat, and to the awakening of queerness at a young age via early 2000's gaming (fave Bloody Roar character ng mga halata, IYKYK 👀) 🦇💋👠🔪💥

Samples made from phone recordings of cicadas/crickets at Lucnab, Baguio + synths and virtual drum kit.

I resided at my friend's family house for a sojourn. This serves as the diary of the simple precious times I had there.

Thanks Xyzhka for singing the 'seed melody' for the synth. 🐈‍⬛

"Fleece" (a sound collage): Terminal Dogma x Heresy presents: Nematocyst

A piece of angst written and delivered by Juan, swimming in electronic deconstruction by Magenta. 

RIP sa lahat ng climax na nabitin; sa mga oras na nasasayang sa mahabang pagpila; sa lahat ng enthusiasm na namatay sa kahihintay; at mga simpleng karapatang pantao na hindi maibigay ng may kapangyarihan.

Ito'y isang piyesa na di mo alam kung spoken word ba o chant o simpleng kagaguhan ng dalawang alagad ng sining na sobrang daks ng frustration at concern sa mga bagay-bagay.

Nawa'y di mawala ang pag-asa ninyo sa pag-asenso. Kapit lang mga bebeh, emz. Balang araw, matatamo din nating lahat ang climax na deserve. Unity pa more! 

❤️💚👊🏽👈🏽💦
