The concept for Schacke’s, Apocalyptic Decadence was thought out during the dark days of the first lockdown in 2020, it is essentially about the desire for hedonism and excess being amplified when faced with apocalyptic omens and the annihilation of the familiar.

When faced with destruction, the psyche approaches a duality, it can either swallow the pill of bitter realism or withdraw and escape into the imaginal, constructing a world of hedonism and pleasure, the paradox of the latter, which the album explores, is that this approach only accelerates the process of impending doom and the delusion that through the pursuit of eschatological pleasure, the world might be orgasmically reborn.

Apocalyptic Decadence sees Schacke exploring the full spectrum of his musical discography, taking inspiration from the industrial, dark and rough sounds from his early days, combining it with the hyper-sensuality of his later works. The sound is twisted, psychological, sex-fixated and intoxicating.

The album can be considered the 3rd part in his “Pleasuredome Series”, following his prior two releases on Instruments Of Discipline: ‘Welcome To The Pleasuredome’ & ‘Artificial Intercourse’.

Schacke - Miasma Of Filth

Broadcast of daytime nightmares is a quintessence of insomnia, derealization, and a pinch of eastern vibes. Feels like surfing internal radio waves in search of the right frequency.

äsc3ea [es 'tse: a]

Emma Grünwald Hamzayeva is an audiovisual artist and musician, currently based in Kyiv, Ukraine (born in Baku, Azerbaijan in 1994).

Emma writes music under the alias "äsc3ea" and creates visuals, combining such media as generative art, AI, design, video, and photography.

She creates works analyzing and reflecting on topics in the field of psychological science and neurobiology such as mental health, cognitive dissonance, and sleeping disorders.

While creating music she is searching for some warm analog sound, which takes you back to childhood, and creates a naïve comfort sensation. At the same time, she mixes it with the glitchy, warped, detuned sound that tends to confuse you and creates some dissonance.

The aim is to uncover the contrast between the comforting sensation of naïve childhood memories and the glitchy, distorted, out-of-tune, messed up, dissonance reality that we experience nowadays.

@ctrls plunges head first into a fragmented future of gleaming metallic sound design, crystal clear bass pressure, unreal sonic detail and high-speed sensory hypnotism, soaked in quantum mechanical ambience.

With little resemblance to what’s come before, the Danish producer fiercely mutates forward-thinking electro with machinist bass music into a cold-blooded and carefully programmed record, for the mind and for the floor.
