Assembled to accompany a short film from Manchester-born visual artist, poet and filmmaker Tibyan Mahawah Sanoh, Joshua Inyang and Joshua Tarelle’s newest is a cinematic audit of identity and ancestry. In the film, Sanoh works hard to visually illustrate an honest and vulnerable picture of her soul. Inyang and Tarelle respond by doing the same with sound, collaging disparate elements together in a way that should be familiar to anyone who heard "hybtwibt?" or their jawdropping RA mix from earlier this year.

Warped field recordings, overdriven rhythmic pressure, syrupy pads and disorienting vocals are cut and pasted over each other, generating a living, breathing study of the duo's Northern working class Black British reality. Unlike the duo's acclaimed "Somewhere Decent To Live" full-length, elements mutate and transform: mushy noise bends into street sounds, haunted vocals into echoing drill melancholia and muffled howls into shattered digital remnants.

Special Edition 10" & digital out now. 
Gold metallic Pantone printed on reverse board.  Mastered by Stephan Mathieu at Schwebung, cut by LUPO.

Space Afrika - Untitled (To Describe You) [OST] (SFERIC10") [Preview]

Exodus delves into the odyssey of the Dove family as they journey from Bryan, Texas to the vibrant landscapes of Los Angeles in the 1960s. In Nexcyia’s quest to
encapsulate the dystopian surrealism of the Dove family's journey, he aims to harnesse the power of sound as a potent tool of storytelling. Drawing inspiration from the
decaying landscapes and moving atmospheres that surrounded them, he crafted a sonic tapestry that transcended traditional music composition, immersing listeners
in a visceral experience of their journey.
Nexcyia's approach to sound design is meticulous and reflective, as he seeks to manipulate and distort familiar elements into something altogether otherworldly. He
samples the haunting echoes of lost voices weaving them into the fabric of his compositions to evoke the desolation and decay of the world around them. The subtle
but metallic clang of rusted objects are granulized, while the distant hum of malfunctioning electronics formed a dissonant melody that lingered in the subconscious
like a half-remembered dreams.
Nexcyia seeks to infuse his compositions with a sense of hope and resilience, drawing on the indomitable spirit of the Dove family as they navigated through the
dystopian wasteland. Amidst the cacophony of chaos and despair, he introduces moments of ethereal beauty, incorporating haunting melodies and soaring harmonies
that pierced through the darkness like shafts of light breaking through storm clouds.
Through sound, Nexcyia transformed the Dove family's odyssey into an immersive auditory experience, blurring the lines between music and storytelling. Each
composition is a journey in itself, an afro-sonic tapestry that can transport listeners into the heart of a multiverse. And in doing so, he not only captures the essence of
their journey but also invited listeners to embark on their own odyssey of discovery and transformation.
