Our behavior is shaped at its core by two main drives - to escape pain and to seek pleasure.


Every recollection in memory contains them,
and intentionally or unconsciously our decisions are dictated by them, conditioned by whether we expect more pain or pleasure,
at the end of any particular action.


The range between the pain and pleasure maxima experienced plays a huge role in how we are made up of beings and what we have painful or pleasurable associations with plays an important role
in shaping any aspect of our individuality.

Although we avoid pain,
if it is the price paid for pleasure and does not exceed the desired result in its strength, we are ready to go through this pain
and sometimes even love it as a presage of pleasure...

NZM 99
"Eternality" [EP]

https://vumantra.bandcamp.com/album/eternality-ep

“Eternality” is an immersive musical project that explores the soundscapes of a dystopian society in decline. Through dark electronic textures, industrial percussion and unstructured melodies, the album depicts a world where illusions of progress have collapsed, giving way to a disoriented humanity. Each track is a chapter in a story where technology, isolation and resistance intertwine, inviting the listener to delve into a future that is both oppressive and strangely beautiful.

Emerging from the depths of the rave scene, NZM 99’s sound sorcery is driven by dark and acid techno, underlaid with heavy, powerful bass. His electrifying and skillful performances leave crowds spellbound. As the founder of Tjalk Records, a heartfelt tribute to the boat he resides on in Lyon, NZM 99’s numerous releases on esteemed labels like Persephonic Sirens, Khoinix, and Flesh Or Die have brought him to international stages, with recent shows in Poland, Germany, and Georgia. Inspired by legends such as Arnaud Rebotini, The Hacker, Terence Fixmer, and David Carretta, NZM 99’s passion for vintage synthesizers has been the driving force behind his artistic journey. Ever since he acquired his first analog machine as a teenager, he has continuously expanded his setup, delivering powerful live performances and mesmerizing DJ sets that blend techno with EBM tones, bewitching dancefloors.

NZM 99 - Eternality

GLANZ UND ELEND is thrilled to unveil the release of a new remix EP. Featuring remix collaborations with dynamic roster of uniquely talented artists, this collection delivers fresh takes and electrifying new dimensions to a beloved original.

Athe the heart of this EP is `Perlen vor die Säue´ by PANTERNOISE,
a haunting and evocative piece of industrial art, rooted in both nostalgia and innovation. Built around the eerie sample of a 1990s telephone message—the kind you’d hear when dialing a non-existent number—the track transforms a mundane fragment of the past into a profound and unsettling sonic experience. These fragments of lost communication serve as a metaphor for modern alienation, where meaningful connections are increasingly rare in a world consumed by noise, miscommunication, and superficial interactions.

The opening moments of the track immerse the listener in an otherworldly soundscape, where atmospheric drones and metallic textures echo through a void, evoking the disconnection and mystery of a misdialed call. The distorted sample weaves itself into the fabric of the composition, its stark familiarity contrasting with the raw, tribal beats and jagged synths that emerge as the track unfolds.

The rhythmic core pounds like a restless heartbeat, driving the track forward with relentless energy. Layers of percussive clatter, glitchy transitions, and haunting sonic flourishes create an intricate web of sound that feels both chaotic and meticulously crafted.

What makes `Perlen vor die Säue` truly extraordinary is its ability to reinterpret a forgotten piece of everyday life and elevate it into a timeless, visceral work of art.
It’s a journey through industrial grit and avant-garde experimentation, a sonic exploration of disconnection, nostalgia, and raw emotional power.

Now, each remix tells its own story to this, blending unique styles and sounds that add new layers of magic to the track.

The EP includes remix contributions from:

EVIL DUST
HYPNOSKULL
INVERNO
KENNY CAMPBELL
LADY MARU
MESSIAHWAITS
SUBSTENCIA
THE UNDERTAKER´S TAPES
WILLILAH

to explore a dynamic range of genres, making it a must-hear.

Join us on a sonic journey through darkness and defiance, designed to captivate fans of industrial, techno, and experimental electronica. It’s not just a remix EP—it’s a reimagination, taking the raw emotion of the original and amplifying it into electrifying, otherworldly experiences.

Orca Silent - Kispiox AM 
The Long Grey [OSL039 / Oslated]

Produced by Steve Braam aka Orca Silent
Mastered by Motion Symmetry, UK
Artwork by Clément Davout
Released by Oslated from Jeju Island, South Korea
Release Date: September 15th, 2025

The Long Grey documents the extended winter months off Canada’s west coast, where overcast skies settle into the mind and shape life with quiet, bleak resolution. Cold-escapism unfolds through atmospheric passages—raw tones and bristling textures guide generative drones across both physical and geographical terrain, revealed through ambient and hypnotic movement. Trace the fading glory of summer, witness the decomposition of seasons, and ascend through winter’s isolation toward a final emergence in natural serenity.

The source of our inspiration is a place where chaos looms over the world we are familiar with,  where there is born a real wonder, all-out curiosity, and the uncontainable desire to learn what lies ahead, to get to know what the unfamiliar environment is and to see what virtual creatures await beyond it. 
Unknown and the Chaos always was a source of fear.  Yet strong enough - a synthesis of pure sweetness, cognition and emotion. Dealing with the chaos of the mind and its conversion into the Pure pleasure, power, knowledge that always invites you to find new places in the chaos. 
We do not recognize the existing model of human existence, Irrational moral categories,  And we think that all of this human reality is just one virtualization in an indefinite multitude.
The expansion of the universe has many forms, and this is our way of expanding the Borders of Known.
