Mental Decline

Chansons for the replicates. Hymns for the algorythmed. Operatic minimal wave. Spoken words. Otherworldly electronica. Oh pop, Oh techno. Oh Pose Dia. Now on R.i.O. simulating herself on an album full of weeping synthlines, melding melodies, unreeling heatre between the notes, camouflaging in fashion and rhyme. Impulsive, destructive, yet so perceptive, gently
repetitive.

“Simulate Yourself” is her second album since “Front View,” released in 2020 on Bureau B. Now the Hamburg-based filmmaker, DJ and musician Helena Ratka, aka Pose Dia, brings a notion of digital archeology. Nine otherworldly chanting cold blooded Lieder and tracks, manic, longing for the real in the unreal. The matter of her poetic-abstract lyrics is
rhizomatic, linking psychological “Suspiria” fantasy with sociology, media theory and all that never obsolete post-structuralism. Hyperreality for the hyped.

Fully illusionistic. Wrapped in touching airs, drilling into cold waving Risiko spheres. X-mal rotating towards novel corners, shading light on old ones. Track make-up transforms into lacquered songs. Fog and fire. Night and light. Hairspray and cigarettes. Pose Dia transfers fine-tuned dissatisfaction to all those fully satisfied. Welcome to the other side of the Ocean.

Красный Террор (Red Terror) live

---------------- ( English )------------------------

In his quest for peace,
the knight never ceased to fight for it.
But after countless battles,
a question pierced his armor:
Why am I here?
What is good?
What is evil?

Thus began his descent into a deep duality
and so he fell.
After striving so long to reach the light,
he found only shadow.

His battles led him to defeat many ennemies
in the name of peace,
and yet, to some,
he was nothing but a bloodthirsty monster.

So be it.
He surrendered his heart,
and abandoned his soul to the darkness.

But remember this:
where there is shadow,
there is always light.
And where there is light,
shadow is never far behind.

---------------- ( Français )------------------------
En quête de paix,
le chevalier ne cessa jamais de livrer bataille pour l’atteindre.
Mais à force de combats,
une question finit par transpercer son armure :
Pourquoi suis-je arrivé là ?
Qu’est-ce que le bien ?
Qu’est-ce que le mal ?

Alors, il sombra dans une profonde dualité,
perdit pied,
et malgré tous ses efforts pour atteindre la lumière,
il ne trouva que l’ombre.

Ses luttes l’avaient conduit à vaincre d’innombrables ennemis
au nom de la paix.
Et pourtant, pour certains,
il n’était rien de plus qu’un monstre assoiffé de sang.

Ainsi soit-il.
Il abandonna son cœur,
et laissa son âme glisser dans les ténèbres.

Mais souvenez-vous :
là où réside l’ombre,
la lumière n’est jamais loin.
Et là où brille la lumière,
l’ombre veille toujours.
