Obscure bio-machinery conspiring against humanity, grinding relentlessly to collide with the rules and roles that reduce existence to a sterile binarism are animating ‘Phrentic Affliction’, an EP about industrial electronics that is structured consistently upon dark visions of claustrophobic sceneries that belong to a cacotopian reality. Steelworks caustic distortions shape the four original cuts orchestrating time disintegration and space collapse one hit after the other, as an unstoppable disease aiming to erase reality and frame new ways, enduring exhaustion to find exile from the pale constrictions of social assets.
This work moves on as a sequel to the 'Synnecrosis' album, approaching a fairly similar timber study from a slightly different perspective in order to add more to the core. Two meaningful artists are called to join the release as well, willing to expand even more this adventurous sonic exploration with their unique sounds matured over many passionate years of deep sonic research: Ken Karter, also mastering engineer and scientist behind the sound of Monolith Records, and Uncto, side project of Dominik Müller (in collaboration with Rafal Fürst).

Mitro - Atencion [WHA068]

Always on the hunt for gold, Treasure Series offer up the motherload once again with that signature coupling of a heavyweight, sub bass led, tech house groove with an audacious vocal sample for good measure. The title speaks for itself here, an Outrageous and in your face glitched-out vocal to spin your head straight out of that lockdown haze.

OUTRAGEOUS

“When did the future switch from being a promise to being a threat?”

 Things are running so fast, to nowhere. It looks like mankind has realised that any effort to find a reason to justify its own existence is actually useless.
At the end we finally gave up, seeing ourself as monsters rather than the amazing creatures designed to rule the universe.
Our evolution, that we can definitely assume to be an involutionary process, turned the human kind being into a condition where the race probably got to the maximum of the biological possibilities. What will come next? Is it possible that the next step will involve creatures whose basic capacities so radically exceed those of present humans as to be no longer unambiguously human by our current standards?
Probably those entities will be able to "become" or embody different identities and understand the world from multiple, heterogeneous perspectives reaching the “post human condition” while seeking to maintain intellectual rigor and a dedication to objective observations.
Mankind’s hunger for keeping the evolution of techniques and tools vivid and alive brought our kind to struggle to feed itself of artificialism, spoiling biodiversity and setting itself as a black hole which swallows everything. The act of digesting creates nothing but toxicity that keeps on spoiling our planet and the life forms which populate it.
Since mankind started ruling the world, this process never stopped. Even when the balance was found, mankind kept growing, expanding and evolving, reaching a condition which is distant to the natural feelings of our race.
Hypothetically, we’re trying to ascend to an higher plane of existence in order to have a better control of the Earth and its happenings, despite the harsh fact that life has became harder for most of the animated beings which populate it, even for humans themselves.
As humans are conscious entities, surviving isn't enough, as our needs push us to make the most of our own psycho/physic resources in order to shape our own vision of things on a satisfactory base. This allows us to feel in peace and harmony with our surrounding world.
Besides the fact that more and more people all over the world have to struggle in order to ensure their own existence, a constantly decreasing number of people are able to focus on the happiness, having no direction to follow. The balance which ruled existence got lost and probably the time for a radical change for our little corner of the universe is getting closer and closer. A natural flux of renewed energy will come to set up a new order and renew the existence cycle over our planet.
“The end was contained in the beginning”, all we can do at this point is just to wait for the advent of the new cycle, wait for the advent of the MONOLITH to set the new order.
