Time is running and a lot of distorted frequencies have passed in our eardrums since that first self-produced release on Sony cassettes in 2016.

Raw Culture turns 5 and for its fifth anniversary it is its handyman Asymmetrical to blow out the candles.
After his first EP “For Muthafucka Use Only” released in 2017, Asymmetrical returns to his little baby with an album, Blind Faith.
Inspired by Ben Elton dark, savagely comic novel where he imagine a post- apocalyptic society where religious intolerance combines with a confessional sex obsessed, self-centric culture to create a world where nakedness is modesty, ignorance is wisdom and privacy is a dangerous perversion, Blind Faith aims to be a critique of post capitalist society and to redesign the idea and the relationship in the
contemporary club.
Two densely engraved sides for a total of 8 tracks ranging from Ebm to techno, from electro to New Wave, all connected by raw rhythms, noise and distant voices.

All tracks written and produced by @asymmetrical at @FAUNA53 , Roma 2020.
Mastered at Sensorium.
Distributed by Rubadub.
Design by Linkin Bios.

It's no secret we endorse the way Bandcamp supports artists and labels. Their unique approach on selling independent music is why we’ve opened an account 7 years ago and not even for a second did we regret it since.

On May 1, June 5, and July 3 Bandcamp is waiving their revenue share again (every first Friday of the month). It’s a reason for us to launch "Pinkman Digi Lab", our new digital only release series. Expect your monthly dose of experimental electronic albums served fresh and ready to download for a price you decide by yourself. That's right, pay whatever you want for a limited period.

First up, TYVYT|IYTYI. He previously released a cassette on Pinkman, and now the connoisseur of groove-fueled wave electronics returns with a 17-track album. Dark but not bleak, Untouchable is a rather mischievous dance with misery. Filled with coarse synth-lines, percussive kicks, pierced with eerie vocals and submerged into nostalgic ambience it’s a cinematic sound journey for those brave enough to take it.

TYVYT|IYTYI - Shade Beneath

In Aeternam Vale is an electronics fanatic who has experimented continually with the analogical synths and old rhythm boxes in his collection. To this day his music remains incredibly powerful, cold and caustic and takes cues from punk rock nihilism and aggression. He was in a band back in the eighties but also was inspired by Kraftwerk and conjured up his own inhuman musical universe with haunting singing front and centre. His nightmarish atmospheres also come with a sense of satire and humour and though confrontational in nature, are hugely rewarding. His visceral relationship with music has played out with releases on Minimal Wave and went on to take in trance-techno, ambient and even house in recent decades. Opening up is ‘La Plage’, with vulnerable vocals lost in a mix of jittery drums and hits that are innocent yet powerful. It’s a brilliantly unusual sound that is both danceable yet emotional. The stiff and coarse ‘Bathroom’ has deadpan vocals and flat footed drums. The edginess of the voice is offset by a more playful melody and the whole thing prowls at a slow and predatory pace. From there, ‘Rattlesnake’ rides rough on a corrugated bassline as metallic hits light up the groove like a strobe. Mangled vocals add a layer of grime and eeriness while the drums work you into a slow motion dance that will send clubs wild. Last of all, ‘The Missionary’ is the most industrial and brutalist of the lot, with gauzy textures, drilling bass and dystopian moods all finished with a voice that is refracted around the mix. This is utterly thrilling and fresh sounding electronic music that is truly timeless.
