Album description by @woulgmusic:

The Body is a Prison is a deep dive into an emotional inner world, seemingly just as ready to explode into violence as it is to crumble in despair, but still somehow floating on a sense of wonder. Insane sound design glitches interject beautifully composed piano and synth layers, weaving together into some sort of enormous mechanism. Rhythms coalesce and fall apart, melodies float between seemingly infinite states, everything reshaping itself as we go deeper and deeper into the imagined world. Everything from the cohesive sonic palette, to the flow of each song and phrase, to the journey of the whole album has been considered in incredible detail. If this is Amaranth Todd’s early work in hyperglitch, I think we should all be excited for (and afraid of) what’s to come.

Amaranth’s sound design, oscillations between obscured and clear pulse, dynamic forms, and mosaic layers are exactly what I imagine when I think of hyperglitch, and is exactly the type of music Philippe Macnab-Seguin and I have been working on outlining in our forthcoming paper about Hyperglitch and Aural Sonology. All the while, Amaranth’s many years of musical experience bring new and exciting ideas to the style. The Body is a Prison launches my imagination into a world where we could have whole event line ups and labels of hyperglitch, and many communities and resources for new artists that are interested in learning the techniques, all helping to establish the edges of the genre while simultaneously expanding it.

Amnesia

don't deny your divinity
156 and 93  
can't you see the ecstasy in front of you

all of the words, hidden within
all of the world, buried in skin
all of your curves, 
all of your crevisces,
all of your pores
All of this world, reflected within

Scream it out, so mote it be
156 & 93
Scream it out right next to me
Spirit of Pan I am

I am divine, repeat after me
So mote it be, mote it be, mote it be
I am divine, repeat after me
We came from one cell initially
