Hiiro Issiki’ s "Tannins" is a 6-track mini-album that blends immersive ambient, cinematic dance music (CDM), and techno, crafted with minimal repetition to shape an environmental soundscape. Inspired by movie soundtracks and emotional atmospheres, it merges ecstatic expression with meditative stillness, questioning modern society through deep, unshaped sound waves and abrupt noises.

To transform the structured art of “music” into ambiguous particles of memory and space. It is neither “story” nor emotion. It is the sensation of fragments, the memory of reverberations, the minute tremors of the unconscious. In other words, I want to present as a work of art the very sensation of “a faint blur in the silence. Time is not a line but a layer, melody is not will but an accidental stain, and “ to listen” is not to enter into the sound but to be blurred by the sound. I want to scoop up the contemporary “submerged sensation of being flooded with sound.

58: Portraiture

Girl… finally! I was worried af… Quick… IDKLANG is playing now! Step closer, you’ve just slipped into the haze of their world. Don’t even try to breathe steady, the air is thick with distortion and bass snarls that cut sharper than glass. Where sweetness flips into menace, where trance melts into chaos, where every kick hits like a bruise. Girl… this isn’t calm, this place’s about to blow… I’m dragging you through glitch and shadow, sweat and static, until you can’t tell if you’re dancing or dissolving. Oh god I lost you again… or wait… is that you?

IDKLANG is the moniker of the Vienna-based musician, composer, and producer Markus Steinkellner, whose many projects also include Mermaid & Seafruit, Arktis/Air, Jakuzi’s Attempt, and many more. Over the course of the last ten years, they’ve been performing live shows, conceptual improv sessions, and DJ sets around the world; writing music for theatre pieces and dance performances. Their body of work is characterized by highly-energetic compositions that masterfully handle tension and release, oscillating between loud blasts and heartfelt, grandiose melodies. Seamlessly blending genres such as post-punk, witch house, pop or hardcore, IDKLANG crafts post-nihilist outbursts of an erratic mind. Influenced by club music as well as noise or industrial, their music ranges from accelerated, high-energy tracks to haunted drone sceneries, creating the perfect soundtrack for dystopian euphoria.
