We are proud to present Biochemical Metamorphosis by artist OCD as the final release on Noise Manifesto for the foreseeable future. 


OCD is Chiara Ricciardi, who we got to know at the queer parties of Gegen. Always impressing us with her delivery of the darker sounds of techno we love so much, it was obvious we needed to invite Chiara to Noise Manifesto. This EP was made during Chiara’s journey, starting from her cancer diagnosis and completed just after her final chemo treatment. This EP is a testament to the courage it takes to face life's challenges and emerge stronger on the other side.


Here is OCD in her own words:

This EP is a raw exploration of my journey through chemotherapy. Each track serves as a sonic snapshot of the emotions I felt during this challenging period. From the initial anticipation of the unknown, leading to feelings of despair and finally to the emergence of newfound strength to overcome cancer, this collection of tracks offers a deeply personal and honest account of my experiences. 

The progression through the EP, together with the artwork created in collaboration with artist Feo Melanin, reflects the increasing severity of the treatment and the psychological toll it took. The palette of reds is a direct reference to the chemotherapy medications I endured, while the abstract shapes represent this transformative process. This is more than just a collection of tracks; it is a personal narrative and a cathartic release.

Premiere: OCD "Depersonalization Disorder" - Noise Manifesto

Biochemical Metamorphosis marks a profound, closing chapter in https://soundcloud.com/noise-manifesto-records ’s legacy of boundary-pushing techno for the foreseeable future. Created by our beloved resident https://soundcloud.com/ocdtechno (aka Chiara Ricciardi), this release resonates with a deeply personal and transformative narrative. Composed during a period of intense adversity—Chiara’s battle with cancer—the EP charts an emotive course from the initial moments of uncertainty through the crushing depths of despair, and ultimately into a place of renewed strength and resilience.

In OCD's own words: "This EP captures my journey through chemotherapy: the fear, despair, and ultimately, the strength to fight and heal. Each track is a sonic diary of those intense emotions. Paired with artwork by Feo Melanin, the visuals reflect the chemotherapy’s harshness—reds echoing the treatment’s medications, abstract shapes embodying the process of transformation."
