Berlin based artist Max Dahlhaus grabs our attention with 'Short Morrow', his latest album on ‘Infinite Machine’, which is not only a view on life at the moment through the artist’s eyes, but a shout-out to everyone who is listening to see that change is inevitable.

Max’s third album is a collection of thoughts on society and the way we navigate this digitalised world while being observed by technology every step of the way.

Many sounds on 'Short Morrow' were recorded by Max during quarantine in 2020 in the empty streets of Berlin. "There weren't many people outside, but the all surrounding energy of what humans are was still there.", Max explains, when asked about the creative process.

His wanderings through the streets of his city took him to experience places that usually were filled with life and motion from a completely new perspective. "I had time to think about all the years that had passed and explore what I felt in exactly that moment. 'Short Morrow' represents my inner dialogue about different aspects of our digitally connected society and the life around it.", Max recalls and explains that "Electro magnetic fields are not visible, but they are recordable. For days I collected those sounds during the first lock down in the empty streets of the usually so quirky streets of Berlin."

The audience can follow Max’s explorations on the album, listening to the atmosphere shifting from experimental to rather clubby, and then back to sentimental in a blink of an eye. Sometimes it might give you the feeling of being lost, while the next track gives you a feeling of being hunted. The sound of the omnipresent electromagnetic waves in our life trails thought the whole album and gives it a dystopian undertone, which makes ‘Short Morrow’ an eyewitness record of the here and now, but also a tale of a possible near future.

Short Morrow

Max Dahlhaus - O=C=O

For decades, the town's stones have been mysteriously moving in summer,

And old-timers still whisper fairy tales.

It's even said that they meet discreetly every summer,

Fairies from the four corners of the earth to make us dance to the rhythms of their kingdoms...

𓆩Ӻīɍⱥƶ𓆪 : Le Deuil d'un Papillon

relentless blast of industrial energy—high-tempo techno, pounding big beat, and emergency alarms fused with cyberpunk flair.

INDIVIDUAL DROPS by ICE_EYES is a cold-blooded showcase of dynamic sound organization, where sputtering shreds of sound cluster into larger scale rhythm units, before shattering into new formations once again. Sounds here are sliced, combed, atomized and always performing new acrobatics around the indeterminate no man's land of the rhythm-pitch transition zone, yet somehow never straying too far from advanced dancefloor-ready syncopations. 
The tonal medium of these broken rhythmic arrangements immediately suggests something trembling with cutting edge technological infrastructure, where harmonically dense pads evoke a long forgotten IDM cgi landscape, where hybridized sounds rattle through an elaborate piping system. Warbled mumblings remind us this music is still situated in the realm of the human, but one where every transmission first passes through a chain of paranoia, interception, re-encodings and subversive content barricades. 
The album is finished off with each track rearranged once again by a handful of masterful remixers. 

ICE_EYES about INDIVIDUAL DROPS 
“In seeking of new challenges, our latest work Individual Drops, is focusing on new evolving sonic material from a more microscopic point of view, by integrating more obvious granular synthesis ideas. The purpose is to create a new formula that works both in sculpting sound design, and the same time respects our dystopian orientation as an archetype. At this point, we engage more intensive, ever changing, faintly anorgasmic, sonic motifs, that work as a guidebook to an overall fragmented picture. 
Arcadia, as an art form that can be used as a metaphor of utopia, is always present at the background of that image, holding all parts together, like an anchor in a turbulent sea, resembling the Argo floating on these angry waters. Space or Khoros is a variable of time balancing from small to large places, but not in an paternal way. Granular synthesis at its core, forming each sound in a discrete way, like a drop of rain falling in a pit of clear water.”

SBVRSV 013 w/ Soft Matter & Venus In Foil - Internet Public Radio

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.
