The manifold artistic roles of Lisbon Portugal-based usof - producer, DJ, label-runner, visual artist - matches his multifaceted audio output. usof has been at the forefront of the accelerating expansion of "ambient" into an increasingly liminal space, twisting and morphing the genre origins of meditative and background music into unsettling, fantastically detailed compositions. ENXPL is proud to present 𝑾𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝑾𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝑵𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒓, usof's latest album, which draws from 20th century composition, dub soundsystems, 1990s club/rave culture, cinematic sound design, post-cybernetic dreams, and the hauntological ache underlying much of 21st century discourse.

Between the exacting technicality and heady conceptual underpinnings of 𝑾𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝑾𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝑵𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒓, usof also makes room for playfulness and humor. On 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘵, electronic gurgles and croaks converse above synth pads which would not be out of place on cassettes with titles like "Dolphin Magic" or "The Fairy Ring" that litter dusty corners of thrift stores. The dub bass theatrics on the title track are inflated to an absurd degree. These excursions from more formal and contemplative ambiances demonstrate usof's fully-realized world building skills. The breadth and depth of 𝑾𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝑾𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝑵𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒓's 30+ minutes invite many listenings.

"listening to yourself between kid and future point ideas,
that evolution that obsessive always me

lmaooo looking back on the passing of time, family, friends,
when it was already sometimes good but somehow

when you, us, them, we, where, were, you when we bridged

feeling already like you might be making what I’m thinking" - Seán Being

usof (b. 1998, Almada, Portugal) is a musician, visual artist, DJ and event promoter transversally focused on ambient and immersive music.

His work dives into a vulnerable ephemerality of sounds in "amniotic suspension", materializing a space of fragility, collective reflection and shared anxiety. The landscape is built from sensitive improvisational exercises with electronic composition and manipulation of textures and atmospheres. Besides exploring the connections between music and other disciplines such as contemporary dance, visual art and cinema, he develops ideas on how music itself can be used to invent new concepts and sensations.

He is also the co-founder of Rotten \ Fresh, a label recognized as a reference of contemporary and experimental music, and also responsible for the netlabel surf, with an increasing roster of forward thinking producers from all over the world. usof has released singles, remixes and mixtapes on labels like Yunque, International Winners, enmossed, WET, nodisk, and Mizuha. With the Living Room collective, he promotes a series of mixtapes and monthly events in Lisbon, where they connect local and international artists and, lastly, hosts the program "for 0" at Quântica Online-Radio station, dedicated to the outwards fringes of sound art.

Vessels of Chaos is a musical tale - an ode to change and reconfiguration. Set in a crumbling lorescape, it explores primitive forms of collective organizations rooted in material reality and its associated imperfections.

It takes the form of a double EP, released on MONTAGE and Over My Body.

Both EPs explore different directions with similar structures. Seen as complementary, they explore the use of voice and organic noises as source material to craft hypnotizing soundscapes and cathartic rhythms. Infused with paleofuturist imagery, they imagine new forms of communities, beliefs, rituals and worships - cherishing communion, shifting perspectives and internal transformations as ways to situate ourselves in the emptiness of existence.

–
Celestial Tears blends shimmering textures with vast soundscapes, distilled with ethereal winds, heart-felt melodies, and astral cries - for a blisscore contemplation of serenity to be found in impermanence and infinity.

Mercurial Blood combines muddy subs with cavernous vocals, mutilated by fractured beats, rough textures and crystalline hits - for an abrasive harshclub exploration of friction as an integral part of dynamic change.

--
Vessels of Chaos marks Griigg's second solo release after Action Replay (TAR, 2018) and is to be taken as the direct continuation of Interbeings (Club Late Music, 2019).

It embodies the conclusion of a years-long change in his creative process for something much more raw and spontaneous, to lay new foundations for his lore and practice. As a convergence point between his previous works, it explores ways to be with the world by crafting abstract landscapes and immersive tales - seeking the sublime in chaos.

Through a sharp selection of experimental electronics, post-club compositions, and hip-hop, personalbrand crafts a mix that feels both dystopian and deconstructed. This set offers a stark vision of the contemporary world, delving into its failures, frenetic intensity, and hyper-accelerationism. The bold juxtaposition of avant-garde sounds and rap-infused tracks creates a potent artistic experience, immersing the listener in an atmosphere of social anticipation, urging them to feel the underlying urgency before it becomes reality.
