Buy Link: https://autonomaindustriale.bandcamp.com/album/virtual-interzone


A critical vision on the virtual world that surrounds us, with an emphasis on the growing artificial intelligence, the algorithm of social networks and information engines, creating profiles of us, deleting singularity, standardising people hidden behind filters, becoming the filters generating personality shifts, deformations and confusion, tools created to substitute experience with information of experience in order to keep humans stuck on a screen, Consumers. Individualistic and ego-focused propaganda. Empty content visualisation. Information control. Saturation of information, discord and indifference.

This work goes through the Interzone factions from the novel “Naked Lunch” by W.S. Burroughs - The Liquefactionists: liquidation/eradication of other ideas, The Senders: elimination of divergent thought, assumption of power through mind manipulation, The Divisionists: self division, self multiplication, replication, power in numbers, The Factualists: anarchy, rejection of any/all controlling bodies.

Exponential Fall

Collapse Of A Civilization

Feat : Jared Artaud (The Vacant Lots)

I have found my weakness
Collecting the pieces
Actually, the last person
I want to be with is myself

Lost cause
Lost cause

Between 2 glasses, too many cursed faces
Still dragged down, familiar spirits fall, fall, fall

Lost cause
Lost cause
Lost cause
It’s a lost cause

Forgetting all the stress
Life’s sharp sting, what a mess !
Actually, the last person
I want to be with is myself

Between 2 stories, too little memories
Still dragged down, familiar spirits fall, fall, fall

RELEASE : The Botched Noise Makers Committee - Rupture EP (Incl. Blush Response Remix) [SFREC007]
ORDER : sfrec.bandcamp.com/album/rupture

Between mental and industrial sounds, The Botched Noise Makers Committee is at work for the next release on SF Records with three tracks made to break a dancefloor.
We are very happy to welcome the American Blush Response with a superb remix which finalizes the EP!
With Pulse, BNMC gently takes you into its industrial universe, then, with the station wagon and its Trance-inspired pad, takes you off the ground to take you elsewhere. Blush Response does not cut corners with this very industrial remix calibrated for big sound-systems. Saturated industrial sounds, big kicks - it's a success.
With the next track, the machine is launched. Diastol is truly a piece with a mechanical soul which advances towards you, with a heavy and determined step.
Broken rhythms, high BPM, Systol is the hardest track of the EP. If you like big metal sheds, this piece is for you.

Lyrics: 

Surrounded by chaos, 
Heroic demise
It’s time – time to rise
Our names will live forever,
Forever out of time
Live for today
Join the final fight

Rise, samurai!
Blades slash through lies
As the bullets fly
Ignite the city of night 
This is our fight
There’s victory in death
If you know when to die

We walk the razor’s edge
With death by our side
We will never be alone
Forever out of time

Rise, samurai!
Tempered by our trials
With steel in our spine
Never bow to fear
Our names will never die
Ignite the city of night,
Join the final fight!

Rise, Samurai! (Hobocop & Cosmic Keanu) VIDEO AVAILABLE

Victory of the day

Support: https://aphoticarecords.bandcamp.com/album/timeline-ep-aph005

'Timeline' is a 3-track industrial techno EP produced by Töria, an artist based in the South of Portugal, known for her impressive devotion to obscure soundshapes and a constant search for heavy feelings through her music.

Dare to enter this cutting-edge atmosphere created by a dark and deep bassline often cut by sharp metallic sounds and ressonant kicks, from its fast-paced beginning to its sensual sudden end. An intense ride through three moments in time - the past, the present and the future.

Lyrics:

All grows dim, time is winding down
My cheeks stay hovered over a puddle of brown
The voices outside of this cramped little box
These choices i've made to breed these cramped up blocks

The shit bubbles burst and trap all the flies
A concoction so twisted, Only someone like Bill Nye
Can decipher all these lies
Can scythe all of these cries
as this pit of stench boils in the middle of July

Out there the souls, eager for pressure to burst
Through their minds like a submarine tank submersed
Parades gather in the grass for the show to start
While these waves slowly rip my brain apart

A wetness caresses my hang lo mein
This water is rising am I going insane?
It tickles my demons but it feels so ripe
There's always a bit of shit at the end of the pipe!

I'm in a fecal position where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
Where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
The slimy hand of stench, Pulls me right down
In a puddle of madness, many shades of brown
NO NO NO NO NOOO!
Get a little taste of the waste in the swamp!

The Mysterious Decibel X Mahan Mahan - A Septic Journey (FREE DOWNLOAD)

This song started as an idea David and I came up with to do an afrobeat song together.  So David came up with this banger of a bass line and drums track and sent it to me. I added some guitars, electric piano, and organ. I then excitedly sent it to Mikey to add the sax, which I consider to be a key element of afrobeat music, and which he always does so well. David's version is much more drum and bass heavy. Please have a listen to both so you can hear how they both sound. I really had a good time making this song. David produced and mixed both versions, and what a fun thing it is to hear my instruments integrated into an elrctronica song by such able hands.

Sorry to those I owe remixes. I'll get to them one day...

Eye on Everybody

eyes bright red
levitating on my bed

i can see the sky
i can see the sea

all the trees are white
all the trees are dead

you can kill my body
you can bury me

bury me

JUST US

I'm currently experiencing the worst bout of depression I've had in my life. Which says a lot, because I usually have some level of depression constantly. It's been going on for a while now, and I have been neglecting all forms of social media. I apologize for not listening to all your tracks. I've just been uploading, and responding to DMs... Eventually anyway. My writing has changed a lot too. My tracks don't sound like they came from hell anymore lol. Hopefully this will be resolved sooner rather than later. Until then I'll just keep dumping my crap here for the few people who still are around.

Tracks vary in quality and style. I just make something and upload it even if it sucks. I just want to enjoy making noise.
