We are very pleased to present the debut album of Stockholm's Daniel M Karlsson, 'Expanding and overwriting'. 

Encompassing themes of transhumanism, capitalism, electronic music history and police brutality, 'Expanding and overwriting' is a work of intense focus and attention to detail, while retaining a sense of playful wonder in its many gleaming surfaces. Moving from processed acid workouts to topologically longform FM synthesis suites, Daniel M Karlsson's inherent curiosity and individuality make for a unique, sublime listen. 

Created with live coding software TidalCycles, along with processing both during recording and after, jittering rhythms boom and collide in an uncanny space, as if propelled through a viscous cloud. Monolithic tones fold in on themselves and reassemble. A new music for a new world.

Expanding and overwriting

Experimental electronic and computer music.

a multitude of everything is a desire to listen to all the music at the same time.

It is the struggle to try to do everything and maybe just do nothing.

The current music project of darken malign an organiser and artist from Ireland, based in Berlin. The project is a discordant data dump of multiple streams and crumbling realities, overlaying first take vocals, with voice notes and field recordings, tossing in YouTube plunderphonics, abstract turntablism, a plethora of disembodied voices and choirs of angels. Incorporating influences from drone to lo-fi singer songwriter, Irish folk, baroque, ambient, and diving deep through a lifetime in music subcultures they try to find a voice through anxiety, a sense of hope and meaning in the data, seeking community through divergent streams for generous ears.
