Zaumne's new album titled Élévation is a multifaceted yet subtle work, an abstract collage that is equally entrancing and immersive. Quoting passages from Baudelaire’s “Flowers of Evil”, the Polish musician promises to elevate the soul and consciousness “Beyond the sun / Beyond the ether”. Yet simultaneously, the artist wants us to stay where we are and focus on the immediate surroundings in search of our personal attachment to the world.

Initially recorded for the WET (Weird Erotic Tension) online community the four pieces are an exploration of erotic aspects of the environment and uncanny intimacy with other beings and objects that dwell in our nearest proximity. Just like on previous releases for labels like Czaszka Rec. or Perfect Aesthetics, on Élévation Zaumne maintains his interest in emotional aspects of sound and internet culture – he builds his compositions from fragments of ASMR-whispered poetry, samples of natural phenomena and field recordings from his family home and its environ.

What starts as an escapist exercise driven by uneasiness and ennui becomes an individual healing process, in which the subject rediscovers the strangely intimate relationship with the world and opens up to almost magical methods of communicating with other beings. ASMR samples and sounds of the artist touching, playing with and exciting different objects are an experiment in establishing contact with the non-human realm and a method of attuning the body and the mind to the reality in which everything is interconnected.

Zaumne tests Einstein’s “spooky action at a distance” through radical, sensual intimacy with what’s near, finding a glimpse of the absolute in his own room, again quoting Baudelaire: “To a child who is fond of maps and engravings / The universe is the size of his immense hunger”.

Breakling Friday's: Sofía PC invites ENEMIGO - 23/03/2024

Mice is back with his first album 0.01% after contributing Light EP and participating three compilation. The vibrating sound which like a gleaming metal shows the life cycle of a parasite . 

The whole album is divided into four chapter — a metempsychosis from fear to calm. Beginning with Warm 暖胃, the host's horror was continuously pushed by the fierce shattered beat and disturbed noise, and reached its peak in Upwelling 上涌. The parasite gradually entered the host's limbic system along with the exalted melody in Corrosion 腐蚀, secreting neurotransmitters to make the host fall into a false excitement. After the drop of the last note in Permeate 渗透, the host began to struggle with his own consciousness and slowly sink into the chaotic subconscious quagmire in Filter 过滤. From Sterillize 杀菌 to Break 突破, the host kept struggling unconsciously until death. The parasite broke out in Purification 净化 and greeted its own transformation — to a higher life form in peace. EndingStarted as the end of the album is not only the end of parasitism but also the beginning of new life.
