Disinformation EP

"Having been deck slaying as near their London headquarters as Germany and as far as Canada, goth techno prodigy Lesser Of is steadily approaching double digit release count. With an established residence at queer x trans focused, revolutionary event series Subverted, their efforts have been welcomed to a formidable list of industrial electronic labels and remixed by a tidy sum of high profile scene icons. Here at Depth.Request our sonars are attuned to emanant potential, and so we conscript Lesser Of to hammer out our fourth acetate offering to date. To this, harsh noise and drone music inspirations are declared, alongside an artistic secret of the trade: lights-off sessions in live room of a recording studio vibrating with the pulse of a bass guitar ran through a freeze pedal were what begot the tracks, and they are well intent on assaulting your headphones with noise. Reeko on the remix—yes, this record fucks.

Prolonged, ominous intro? Nah. Have a face full of Crude Manifestation Of Power instead, as an insatiable, 10-minute long opener braces your ears for a week of ringing with a sonic equivalent of metallic thrashing one could expect from being a sinful, rave-lusting scoundrel. On title-diverting continuation Within My Fragility the words "strength in fragility" are truly alliterated as the pace, abrasiveness and intensity of pummeling are all ramped up fiercely, with linear open hats thrown against them from time to time for good measure. Having reached 140 BPM and concrete mean, Masked proceeds in a well anticipated ra(n)ge: infernal atmosphere, sandy hats and layered tectonic tremors achieved with increasingly undefined low end consisting of a rumble line and rolling kick morphing into abrasive haze. Winding the tempo back a notch, a halftime-arranged contemplation Our Descent grows in direct, hyperborean vector: glassy drones and sharp syncopulsation first—atonal reverberations, distorted arpeggios and punchy stabs endwise. Reeko's analog reinvention of Masked convolves the drum structure by borrowing from breakbeat narratives and authorizes the dystopian ambiance to rise and fall on more gradual, panning, confined terms; adding, however, more disorder to the mix with spectrum slicing, high-range chaos.

As you would have learned to expect from Depth.Request, Within My Fragility EP is not an easy listening five-tracker. If by the end of it you find yourself feeling as if you just stepped out of a pounding warehouse at 3AM and you don't know what day it is, you wouldn't have been experiencing this mindspace alone." - rhetor

SHXCXCHCXSH - LKKKKÖÖK [Premiere | Natural Selection]

OMEN proudly presents its next sonic manifestation, featuring the avant-garde Japanese artist SHINTARØ KANIE. Renowned for his boundary-pushing experimentation and enigmatic soundscapes, KANIE delivers an immersive experience that delves deep into the darker corners of electronic music.

The release is a hypnotic journey, weaving through original compositions and remixes that reimagine the core essence of his work.

The title track, “Fragment”, is a deep dive into KANIE’s signature atmosphere, blending industrial textures with hypnotic rhythms that gradually build into an all-encompassing crescendo. The second original, “Resonate” is a track that embodies raw, unfiltered emotion, leaving a hypnotic haunting impression long after it fades.

Inside “Invalida” and “Transpose” is where SHINTARØ’s experimental spirit shines as he fuses traditional Japanese tonalities with modern electronica, resulting in a track that feels simultaneously ancient and futuristic, meditative yet intense.

Techno mastermind LUIS FLORES takes “Fragment” into a new dimension, injecting its own unique perspective while maintaining the underlying tension. Expect a more driving, floor-focused energy that pushes boundaries from the Mexican techno star.

AXKAN offers a completely different vision, stripping back elements and allowing the core themes to evolve into a minimalist but powerful tribal narrative.

1FM takes the subtle interplay between light and shadow in this remix that speaks to the very heart of the dancefloor.

This release marks a new phase in OMEN's quest to transcend the ordinary, where sound and silence collide in a delicate balance. SHINTARØ KANIE's visionary approach, combined with the prowess of LUIS FLORES, 1FM and AXKAN, ensures that this collection will be a vital addition to any discerning listener’s library.

Prepare yourself for the next chapter of OMEN Recordings. Dive deep, and let the music take you places words cannot.

The compilation will feature the presence of two Khidi residents, OTHR and Unhuman, as well as Incendie and Notausgang from France and the Portuguese EMMA.

Out November 11th. Pick it up at: https://rapture-wav.bandcamp.com/album/mors-atra-va
