This piece of music helps me.

when I made it, the image conjured in my mind was of a battlefield at night, uninhabited by people, but laden with technological tripwire and military traps beaming flashing blue LEDs. Inside all of the warfare was a bright white spirit, tormented and innocent. 

I wish I was in my womb again

Internal Conflict

Newly-arrived experimental electronic music duo @un_p debuts on A Flooded Need with a monumental four-track EP that violently bursts upon us like a sonic train, mixing various elements of contemporary electronic music, with the aim of abruptly liquidating all our awareness.
From the very first moment, the sensation that pervades us is like being catapulted into an icy dilapidated environment where ancient statuesque sound masses are corroded by noisy, saturated isolationist atmospheres.
The same acoustic creatures that seem on the verge of encompassing us, are able to whisper as-yet-unknown indecipherable conventions, suggesting the acceptance of the overwhelming power of noise as a remedy to the evil of modernity and a form of relief.
Ensemble Axiom is dynamic stasis. Huge stormy sound clusters meet liquid, bilious silences.
It is shining ruin and cold restoration.
It is digital sculpture and human escapism.

I made this track a couple of years ago. I remember seeing a couple of girls on Sauchiehall street and being really attracted to them. I had the sensation that due to my low self esteem I would be literally incapable of approaching anyone I was that attracted to. It was a strange moment. I went home and made this track. I was spending a lot of time in bed and rushing essays at the time; Sleeping through all my classes.

I'm not in a very good place in my life at the moment. I've recently started working for a gardening company in Edinburgh after coming home from getting cheated on in North Carolina in Febuary. I'm stressed and keep fucking up at work. I'm in a band also, which doesn't give me enough time to work on my own music the way I'd like. Everything in my life feels rushed and fleeting, some mad scramble. I get depressed often and wish I could cry but I never can. 

All I want to do is create great music and share it with the world the way my idols have in the past, that's all i've ever wanted. But sometimes I doubt my ability to follow in their footsteps, even though I know I'm capable. It often feels there's just an endless sea of musicians these days; infinite competition. Everyone is trying to get their head above the surface to breathe in the air of success and recognition, even if only for a moment before someone else pulls them back down and replaces them. 

I don't want to work some pointless job I don't care about for the rest of my life. I'm already drained. I'm not very smart, or confident. My ultimate nightmare is giving up. If I stopped making music I'd be nothing. Sometimes I think it would be better just to make music alone and not share it, but the act of sharing art and making a connection with the wider world is really the point of the act. I want to belong, but I don't want to be something unnatural.

I want to release ID#2 soon. I think I'm going to put a few hundred pounds behind getting it promoted. I don't really know how to do any of that stuff though. I'm tired.
