Taken from 'Kleis' (G&P021) by Somaticae, out June 5, 2022.

Active since 2006 with multiple projects, evolved in countless DIY or festival performances & putting out a handful of hardline releases, on their latest project 'Kleis' out in May via Gin&Platonic, the Saint-Etienne based musician and respected performer Amédée De Murcia alias 'Somaticae' examines the disturbing concept of dichotomy, fundamentally shaping the world around us.

Being a follow-up to his noise, electronica and techno-oriented past releases via Brainstorm Lab, Lost Dogs ent. or In Paradisum, Kleis (meaning key in ancient greek) offers two iterations (the third is a cassette-only bonus) of an epic and raw, yet genuinely fluid sonic riddle. Composed and recorded during 2020 in Lyon, Kleis is a rebus encrypted with grubby drums, entangled irregularly like sonic tentacles of an octopus, unpredictably rolling on tossed with the cold streams of sharp noises. „The symbolism of the key has a double connotation since it has the power to open and close. It commands access to a place, inside a box, and to an acquaintance. Conversely, it can forbid this same access, so the key has both a role of initiation and discrimination,“ says Amédée.

Mente3000 - Street Knowledge 93 (Digitonica Remix)

在FINAL有你從來沒有聽過的音樂，也有你耳熟能詳的音樂，充滿實驗性但又不失趣味。 

At Final, there is the familiar and the unexpected; the entertaining and the experimental. 

這裡是每一個躁動不安靈魂的歸屬。 

At Final, there is a home for all the restless. 

在音樂上我們嘗試不同的可能性，試著打破類型限制與規則，很多時候我們會搞砸，但每當我們完美抓到平衡的時候，是世上最美的事情之一。 

At Final, we strive to create new possibilities. While we screw up sometimes, when we get it right, it's pure magic. 

它帶給了我們希望與絕望，賦予痛苦與喜樂，但能因此碰到很多志同道合的朋友，人生本不就如此？ 

This pursuit brings us a lot of hope, pain, and joy. But in this struggle, we are able to meet many like-minded friends and build a community. 

張合輯收錄了五位跟我們有著緊密關係的音樂人，代表FINAL的聲音，獻給台北。 

This compilation is dedicated to Taipei. Inside is the work of five artists who are very dear to us, and who represent the sound of Final. 

「這裡是我們的故鄉，活得沒法不自在，祖祖輩輩根就扎在這片土地上，用不著你遠道再來尋找」—高行健。 

"This is our hometown, it's impossible to live uncomfortably here. Our ancestors have been rooted in this land for generations, you don't need to come all the way to find home." - Gao Xingjian.
