"Someone has borrowed it,
etching with the Motherboard like a slate diary.
A tremor - and it will shatter.
Angels, pressing down from above.

Malice once small grows wild and careless.
The Motherboard holds the devine presumptions of the world,
yet overlooks the tunnel -
As if it already knows
the background of the next universe."

"The Day After…” is the debut EP by Taiwanese post-club producer F8TLE33 (also known as DJ XING). Following the previous single “Defiled Forest” with relentless beat and abrasive sound design, a post-apocalyptic world is set upon the false promise of lush ambience.

Piercing through the dim light of technological utopianism, F8TLE33 draws influence from deconstructed club, post-metal, industrial music, and carves into the prophecy of living after huamn tragedy.

WIth the collaboration of visual artist Mithril and poet Tsu-Wei Chang, they create a cybernetic worldview reflecting the bleak aftermath of futuristic violence, where the misfortune still lingers but is glowing with vague hope.
