She watched, eyes wide, body frozen in place, looking across the fractured terrain at her orb-encased lover, as the creature who would have been her death fell away behind him into the great nothingness below. His eyes locked with hers for a brief moment, even from that distance she felt the recognition and it cut through her, melting her fear and the fresh memory of entrapment on the path to her own end. She felt the gaze break, as his head twitched upward and he started to drop fluidly sideways to the ground below, taking with him a part of her… a piece of her soul cracking and falling away like a glacial iceberg into the pit of her core. She was running, hair flowing behind her, tears streaming across her face as she crossed the distance, breaking apart in time as her heart bled into the fibres of her being. Down on her knees, straddling him.. holding his face as she watched life depart him. A single word… ‘live..’ spilled from his dying mouth and with that, he was gone. She cried out, holding her dead lover in her arms, soaking his body with the wet salt of her tears, holding her saviour… her people’s saviour. The others, coming to terms with their changed fate, gathered around her, placing their hands upon her back, holding her world together. Picking her up, and gathering up Velok’s lifeless body, they took in their surroundings.. holding him aloft with her in their midst, giving what comfort they could… they started their journey home, back to that dark gateway at the breach of their own reality.

Elsewhere in the keep, the infernal servers that incarcerated so many souls were still active, now free of the malignant tormentors that had kept them in their own virtual hells for what seemed like eternity. Something was happening within the system, Velok’s journey to that digital realm had left a part of him on the other side – a fragment of ancient code that was now doing its work, reconfiguring infrastructures and passing control to those locked up inside, their corporeal bodies now long dead. The morbid digital void was breaking apart, cracks of golden light fracturing the dank artificial world. Lost souls looked up toward the breaking dawn as the vile stagnant atmosphere of their oppression was stripped away. As the landscape changed around them, they were lifted skyward, their broken, fragmented selves returning to complete states, memories returning.. the horrors washed away. Tranquility ascended the serverspace as the souls within were born into a new world of their own making.

And Velok himself… let’s say he had started a new journey beyond this time and space, beyond the possibilities of storytelling.

The Maw, a 5-track showcase of limitless ability from Renraku veteran Ascent, brings idiosyncratic rhythms, imaginative textures, and rich synth lines together into something entirely his own. Coming from the halftime scene, Ascent has carried his mastery of underground music and sound design into IDM territory as a necessary effort to bring new ideas to the genre. 

Beginning with textured and atmospheric “Kin”, Ascent makes contact with hip-hop just long enough to grab listeners’ attention before settling into a tasteful 2-step groove. Lush synth design, somewhat reminiscent of old school rave pads, pull listeners directly into the sub-heavy climax of this fantastic introduction to the release. 

Next up, the soon-to-be bass anthem "Control" shows Ascent's outstanding ability to combine his influences across all genres to form his own unique sound. Bearing syncopated beats and gnarled bass riffs, "Control" moves effortlessly across trap drum patterns, drum & bass synth stabs, and pseudo-footwork vibes to ensure listeners are always kept busy. 

"The Maw" follows up by revisiting the footwork influence found in the previous song while also managing an even greater emphasis on dynamic rhythm sequences. Serving as the titular track, it bridges the gap between classic electronic music and the up-to-date style only Ascent is capable of by incorporating expert production techniques and extensive knowledge of his inspirations. 

As a follow-up to the previous track's meticulous artistry, "Forsythe" leads the release into garage territory, rapidly switching between unique drum arrangements to constantly evolve the track throughout. Avoiding traditional motifs (yet still feeling welcome within this context), the melodic patterns found throughout "Forsythe" add flavors from mainstream electronic music to account for the musical tastes of a wide audience. 

The record’s conclusion holds true to the previous concepts, but lets its power fall into a weighty, sluggish vibe to move Ascent’s previously established abilities into even more unexplored territory. Interrupted only by an anthemic and trance-influenced breakdown, “Surface Tension” brings Ascent’s masterpiece to its finish with deep basses fused to crunchy sound design, a vintage-sounding melodic section, and a final section reminiscent of the halftime scene that The Maw is sure to inspire.
