Axine M - Bupropion Honeymoon

By Joonas Siren aka Forces:

"In June 2024 I was in the midst of making a new live set for an upcoming concert. Instead of making new tracks, I decided to use archival recordings and experiments from the past 20-22 years that I have stored in six old external hard drives. I wrote a SuperCollider algorithm to select audio randomly from a massive folder, where all the archived audio was copied. The recordings range from early ‘00 Board of Canada inspired electronica, to analog noise/drone recordings around ‘06-09, to ‘11 modular synth improvisations, to all the way forward to unused SuperCollider experiments of recent years.

Using the algorithm was uncanny. I encountered a lot of sounds that I have no memory of ever making. This felt like unearthing deep, hidden sediments of myself.

What do these different layers reveal? Much has changed during these years of music making, personally and historically. The early recordings have a sense of melancholy and longing that I can’t quite access anymore. Still they are distantly familiar. During those years, my gaze was turned inwards to personal struggles and a sense of sadness that I wanted to reflect with my music. Nowadays, I want to focus on more general discourses instead of personal ones.

After the concert, I used the SuperCollider algorithm again to make this album. All the tracks have been chosen by it. The algorithm also provides some additional manipulation like sudden jump-cuts and fx’s while recording. Only some fade-outs and mastering have been edited
afterwards.

I hope that the serendipitous nature of the album reveals something hidden, perhaps interesting, beautiful or meaningful, among the shifting aural sediments of different temporalities."

Lyrics:

[Chorus]
Days
Passing by
I get
Reminded
How
Lonely I am
Lost in this keyboard
Playing emotions
I can not speak

[Verse 1]
I lost track of
Seeds
I sow
And it feels
Nothing is worth
I don't know
For how long
But I think
I forgot

[Verse 2]
Does it
Matter?
Will you
Answer
If in you
I seek
Shelter?

[Verse 3]
I
Feel so hollow
Singing for the morrow
That will
Never come
I don't know
What or who
To
Follow
Other than
These pills
I swallow

[Chorus]
Days
Passing by
I get
Reminded
How
Lonely I am
Lost in this keyboard
Playing emotions
I can not speak

days
