oldschool (made by Protiw, demo version)

The debut from PERMANENT, the solo project of Durham, NC based musician Mimi Luse. While some  may be familiar with her work as the bassist and vocalist for the post punk band Cochonne, here she handles everything (with the exception of a collaboration track with Yung Target). With nods to the early days of industrial music in the minimalist, distorted drum machines and an experimental/DIY approach to production, PERMANENT takes her influences and molds them into a sound all her own, equally at home in your headphones on a dark night as it is on the weirder dancefloors of the world.

ON THE LIPS

Following the sedative magic of Perila’s ‘7.37/2.11’, the next auditory journal on A Sunken Mall comes in form of the new album ‘Feelings’ by Ekin Fil. 

Similarly to ‘7.37/2.11’, the album was completed throughout 2020, offering another deeply poignant response to a year dominated by isolationism and trepidations.

The resulting album contains some of Ekin Fil’s most vulnerable, yet sanguine work to date, as it sees her directly channel her emotions into sincere, visceral music.

Dedicated to Ukranian history,heritage and soul.

Tracks recorded in December 2021- January 2022. Full ep - link in bio (bandcamp).

First Photo of a Black Hole

Here’s the first photographic image
of a black hole.
In it one clearly sees
a black hole.
Millions rejoice,
discuss the event,
and circulate the photo
on social media.
White is white.
Black is black.
A hole is a hole.
That neighbor who smokes on the balcony
is a neighbor who smokes
on the balcony.
This text is now being read by you.
Yesterday was yesterday.
Let’s synchronize watches on that point
of determinacy. 
Wave to one another in the window.
Exchange glances.
And move along.

Siviyex - "Gates Of Redaura" (demo)

One could be forgiven, if stumbling upon some nameless wav files, for thinking the White Stains back catalogue was perhaps a collection of unfinished pre-2012 Lust For Youth tracks Hannes Norrvide never got round to vocalising. Layered, synthetic pads are held together under ultra-bright melodies and an all-encompassing lo-fi atmosphere. Yet herein lies the beauty of the project; that it can present a sense of absence and still feel, ultimately, fulfilling.

But this new album is leap forward for White Stains' Belgian protagonist, Koenraad Impens. Pale Desires tip-toes tenderly the line between the washed-out synthpop of old and a move into a cleaner, more delicate territory. This is a far less aggressive incarnation of the project and whilst retaining some essential elements much of the harsh lo-fi aspect has been stripped away in favour of more ambient textures.

It's a sign of maturity; once commanding presence, now reclining under fading neons, White Stains is perhaps becoming the project it always wanted to be.
