Digital Finesse is proud to present Alex Barbu's Adolescence EP, a five-track vinyl that gives voice to a shy, introspective mind shaped by uncertainty. Oscillating between electro and techno, this record captures the raw essence of youth—where emotions are both unfiltered and deeply complex.

In June 2024, when we first listened to Alex Barbu’s tracks, we were immediately struck by their precision and sincerity. A bold minimalism, straight to the point, yet infused with intricate sound design and immersive atmospheres inspired by mountains and Mediterranean ambiances. Adolescence EP encapsulates that fleeting moment between innocence and self-awareness, between the effortless and loud grace of youth and the quiet nostalgia in the coldness of adulthood. As simple as the strong emotions of adolescence. As intricate as the places they transport you to.

To the three original tracks by Alex Barbu, we added two remixes that open new emotional dimensions. First, a never-stop-evolving rework by the Monolith, who fully JimmyBattified "Living Without Ego." Then comes Blinkduus Dischetto, closing the record with his signature raw sensuality, a tactile and almost cinematic reinterpretation that lingers long after the needle lifts. Each track tells a story. Each sound is a memory. Unique, like every life experience.
This is the kind of emotion Digital Finesse strives to bring to life.

Hydrocrystallized thorus-chorus on the edge of cliff Wintersandman. Clarity of Mind pierce through complexed complaints of the neighbours of ignorigorous plasticle soldiers of holy mold for the lost and the ones that suffer for the sake of ungrateful fat asses!

Frost

She cried with nothing to cover her mouth
behind the citizens, for citizens,
yeah, citizens, citizens

He cried to see her in an unlocked jail
searching her evidence, her evidence
yeah evidence, evidence

That's enough
You wished for somebodies
You'd better let you go
You'd better let you go
Bring you back from above air what if
you were not a hero
you were not a hero

You smiled to be a savior of our kid
around the parasites,and parasites,
yeah, parasites, parasites,

I tried to see you on a rudderless boat
holding my apologies

That's enough
You wished for somebodies
You'd better let you go
You'd better let you go
Bring you back from above air what if
you were not a hero
you were not a hero

That's enough
You wished for somebodies
You'd better let you go
You'd better let you go
Bring you back from above air what if
you were not a hero
you were not a hero

How can you help without your hands?
How can I find your portrait?
How can they thank you all the way?

You'd better let you go
You'd better let you go

you were not a hero
you were not a hero

not a hero

(Lyrics)
"You men are worried about the wrong thing. You want to know how i really am don't you? You want to know how I really feel don't you? Cause I could tell you the truth weither you like me or not. I could talk to any woman, cause I don't have anything against anybody, But that's not what's really going on. I have more humblness than i do pride, but do you know how many women want me to stop? Only talking to spanish women? Cause alot of women do, including ebony women. I'm not stupid, I know what color I actually am. And I wouldn't have treated any other woman different, but where I came from caused me to develop a preference. Some of you men already have women and some of you women already have men. Stop worrying about who I'm talking to. Stop focusing on what I'm getting. You men can't have all of those girls, you can only pick one. And it's not my fault that you women picked the wrong one. He's more concerned about you satisfying him than him satisfying you. I guess that's what happens when you jump to conclusions just because you didn't know the person. You shouldn't have let racism get in the way, you shouldn't have let prejudice get in the way, you shouldn't have let pettiness get in the way, you shouldn't have let him get in the way, you shouldn't have let your anti-religious views get in the way, then you could have saw me sucking my two fingers. That's what you get since you didn't like this négro. Now you're stuck with a man that can't satisfy you so you're satisfying yourself instead. Don't talk to me no more cause now i'm looking for another woman. Don't talk to me no more, cause now i'm looking for another woman. I'm not trying to turn this into a competition with those boys, but I liked those girls just like they do. But I'm still tired of sounding so negative all of the time because of it, when I don't know how that woman may have really felt. All I know is that I was upset, angry with what alot of them, angry with what alot of them, actually put me through. But I'm too tired at this point to desire revenge. So I'm going to stay away from them. I just hope someone gets to me before another woman ends up my wife. I tried talking to you but you did me like that. I'm sorry I already have one now, so what did it profit you just to see me hurt? Cause you didn't gain anything other than jealousy. Seeing me behind her and seeing her on top of me, so you might as well hate me like the men cause I won't take your dislike personally.

Arrington - Marked For Death

Airy and soulful description of a world not understood and in that uncertainty something is bugging us, but we don't quite know what it is.  Hareston Clay's soulful croon calls out to us to take note and listen.
