Terry Benedikt - Losing Control
Track description: This track is very close to my heart. It was not a very conscious process of composing it, things just unfolded and I let them be. All I knew was that I wanted it to sound original. The sketch of it was made during a spontaneous all-night session when I couldn’t sleep, sometime in February 2020 in Berlin. Losing Control aims to embody how life can be lived by most of us in these daring capitalist times, always at the edge of getting your shit together.
Control can take many forms. The losing of it as well. Losing control of awareness, losing control of patience, love, peace, order, you name it. I wanted to convey a feeling of selflessness which is then relieved towards the end of the track with hopeful warm pads, which make the losing of control feel almost pleasurable. Because consciously losing control can also be a very good thing indeed.
I tried to keep the percussions very raw and edgy to underline the roughness of control being lost. Friends told me that the lead synth, in the beginning, sounds like a Super Mario game. Hadn’t thought of it but now I can’t get this picture out of my head anymore. Unlike many of my previous tracks, this one still makes me happy after listening to it more than 100+ times. Therefore, I chose to submit it for the open call and I hope it triggers something in you too.

Artist biography: After diving into the electronic music scene in Barcelona with the Kommuna crew, Terry now returned back to his hometown Berlin with the ambition to perfect the crafts of DJing, composition and event curation. Being part of the Love Foundation network taught him how to bring like-minded people together to acknowledge the importance of music in life. Recently he co-founded the Berlin-based event series Orbiting Souls next to his dear friend zodya, which aspires to become a music label and multidisciplinary platform in the very near future. Other interesting projects, such as the launch of a new festival in Poland, are in the pipeline and will be shared very soon.
