We kick off 2020 with @realvanboom 'MORFEUS' which manifests sounds drawn from early 2000s bass music and industrial club, with the bullheaded desire to create floor-shattering tracks.

'MORFEUS' is influenced primarily by the horror media that had stuck with Van Boom since childhood, namely 'Resident Evil'. By channeling the feel of those works, Van Boom has coloured the complexity of this EP's raw drums with dread and aggression.

Also featuring unique and shattering remixes from @mynameisbulma, @ansystem, & @thegn-joynet.

Taken from SBKT034: Nahash - Flowers of the Revolution

‘Flowers of the Revolution’ is the new album from Nahash. 7 original tracks, including a collaboration with Osheyack, plus remixes from Elvin Brandhi featuring Kanja from Duma, Gabber Modus Operandi and DJ Plead

‘The album was written while researching and reading about the role that the US played in installing dictators in central and south America. The harsh and industrial sounds I used as a way to talk about what happens when the harsh reality of neo-liberalism takes over a country that could do very well without it.

I was reading and watching documentaries about Haiti and Cuba and trying to imagine what those countries would be without any western influence.

The ‘’flowers of the revolution’’ are the flowers that never grew, the fields that were burnt down, the plants that were trampled by boots.’ – Nahash

Silver Blade, Shattered Mirror, Deceiver.
three tracks that lament in awareness of
the dual nature within,  

To reify ego through intense self scrutiny bears new life of the self one divided across domains. 
The identity and the identifier face each other. To spawn and destroy a vessel for sins, externalising the ego as another entity and then killing it.

Like observing the life and death of atomic particles, sound waves throw themselves into ears with violent self destruction that pulls on heartstrings. 

Dirgelike drones absorb noise dampness with massive inertia. Silver Blade chronicles the destruction of the self, glossy metals and heavy bass nestle chants of chaotic self aggrandisement, preparing the target for assassination.

Bringing awareness to the dual force within us all and then allowing it to die. 

The identity and the identifier face each other in Shattered Mirror. ‘You see yourself from the inside out’ pieces of glass embedded into the infrastructure of the psyche. Process of illumination of flesh carving the details of our sins, subconscious merging into consciousness shattering old patterns into dancing shards.

The ultimate conclusion comes with Deceiver. The immune response flushes negativity out with intense distorted polyrhythms echoing through the body. Pulsing to purge the self, veiled screams etch deeper the void outside the two halves. When there is ego death what is left?
