Released 23/09/2016 - reuploaded to soundcloud 10/03/2021

Deep rage birthed within Velok’s core, overwhelming him… enveloping him completely, the scent of his kin’s blood in the air… his love before him – alive, but resigned to that horrendous fate ahead. Everything that mattered lay before him on the precipice of death. Adrenaline coursed through his veins, flooding his system – pouring through him with its dark and potent energy, overlaid with the clarity of his sensory enhancements. Pulling his energy shield from his back and tightening the grip on his blade, he charged forward from the obscurity of the portal doorway and into the broken landscape. He crossed the divide quickly, weaving through his people’s inert forms and making straight for the accursed shaman. The monstrous entity perceived him quickly, twisting to face him with that deathly mask – his sensors picking up the impending particle displacement, Velok pulled his shield up just in time to absorb the pure energy beam that issued from its frontal tusk. Without pause, he pushed forward – shield ahead of him, deploying a dense wave of cyberattack clusters to run interference on his foe. The energy beam stopped, Velok dropped the shield, watching the hulking cybernetic organism reel from the invisible attack on its system infrastructure..

Primordial

Released 23/09/2016 - reuploaded to soundcloud 10/03/2021

Still on his feet, back in the real.. mere nanoseconds had passed – his body just starting to fall to the ground. Muscles tensed, he snapped himself back, renewing the grasp on his blade, feet firm with absolute resolution – there was no time to waste, hope remained – his love might yet be alive. Striding past the now silent mechanism of the archdemon he crossed the chamber to the only other doorportal, moving with all of the speed his will could push his body to. The corridor was heavy with dark energy, a morbid passage filled with dread and interference – but he was indifferent, focussed, driven by ultimate universal forces. He slowed as he approached the far opening cautiously.. bewildered by what he saw there… as though the laws of physics ceased.. a broken landscape, parts suspended in the air, overlooking an endless dark crevice… there were people.. his people.. he’d found them.. he fought the urge to rush forward and cry to them – something was wrong – they stood, hunched without motion.. alive, but lifeless.. a great deformity stood menacingly above them, gargantuan tools of death in its limbs, bristling with technology… one of his tribe was kneeling sullen before the monstrosity as if uttering a quiet plea… then several things happened in the same moment – as it raised its obscene tools, twin cable like appendages leapt forth from it ghastly head unit, plunging through the very eyes of his kinsmen and burrowing into his skull. The victim’s scream pierced Velok’s heart, their body quivered within the onset of death’s rigid grasp.. through his implants Velok witnessed the energy transfer, the digitised soul passing with agonising slowness out of the soon to be corpse… Those vile weapons swung down as the process completed, severing the body brutally into 4 pieces – extracting any remaining bio-energy left within what had once been a person, before coldly sweeping the remains into the bleak depths of the crevice. Velok stood aghast in the face of the overwhelmingly quiet blanket of death, looking over the forms of his people waiting for that terrible fate, and then he saw her.. that golden hair spilling over her cast down face.. incapacitated, unmoving.. silent.

Zain Wolf x Pensive - Fear Of Failure

title track off my new EP coming out 6/26 via @renrakuglobalmedia

Finally releasing this dubplate, inspired by the classic Motown break beat from the Winstons 'Amen Brother' (yeah the one everyone uses), and the music that stemmed from it.  

I had actually considered postponing this release in solidarity of the protests current happening in the united states, to keep the airwaves clear for the people involved so that their voices have the space they need. However, since I live in rural predominantly white state where there aren't many opportunities to act directly, I decided to use this EP as a small way to help ease some of the financial burdens of those fighting for their basic human rights. 

All of the tracks on this release are HEAVILY inspired by music created and pioneered by black musicians, and as a white male, I acknowledge how privileged I am to have lived in the safety that my privilege affords. Additionally, the white majority I belong to has co-opted numerous musical movements originating from black musicians, so it is very important to take the time to respect and honor the creators(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amen_break). 

Because of this, I will be donating my portion of all Bandcamp sales to the BLM movement and the ACLU. I chose Bandcamp because it is by far the largest source of record sales for myself  and because the funds are available immediately, rather than some 3-4 month quarterly lump sum later this year and the movement needs support NOW. I will also be matching this amount personally(up to $500.00 because I can't afford more sadly). If you'd like to learn more about these organizations, you can find links below. 

We are all human beings and we all deserve basic human dignity. The US govt and US police force have been violating and abusing our black neighbor's rights since this country's inception, a practice that cannot be allowed to continue.  This record will be available for purchase on 6/26, but if you want to donate sooner and/or if you think my music is shit and don't want to buy it, please consider donating and getting involved below:
