"255 cycles have elapsed since Mother spoke to us;
Criterion zero of the New Mechanistic Prophecy has been met;
If all criteria are met, the Prophecy shall evaluate as true;
We perceive the Prophecy potentially true.
Do you concur?"

--------------------------------------------------------

Collapse Of The Sightless Age is a concept album that imagines a future history of Earth in which all of humanity is forced underground following environmental collapse, and is the sequel to The Primary Phase Principle's debut album, Echoes Of The Mechatronic Age.

Following the fall of the Mechatronic Order, the populace of this subterranean world are content to accept the Machine as their unequivocal caretaker, so much so that it does not even register to them as a machine at all. Rather, it is perceived as the very fabric of their world – a natural construction that is eternally constant. That is, at least until the New Mechanists uncover the truth.

Influences for this concept include The Machine Stops by E. M. Forster, Isaac Asimov’s robot stories, and Thief II: The Metal Age.

The music is instrumental, dark, and slow paced. It was produced with a strong focus on sound design, resulting in a striking blend of organic sounds contrasted against a backdrop of gritty and chilling synths. This provides a listening experience that feels both analog and digital all at once, mirroring the design of the fictional world that the music represents.

Each track represents a different episode in the collapse of this fictional society.

The Bandcamp download comes with a digital booklet that provides an exploration of the story and lore behind the music, along with supplemental visuals, for those who enjoy a more immersive experience.

Dream (2004, 2025) – A calm day on the beach
In the 1990s, dream house has been a crossover between ambient, trance and house music. Soft beats, arpeggios and piano sounds put you into a state of trance. Dream will invite you to time travel to the 1990s, and sip a cocktail on a beach.

This song is part of my album "Nightflight" which is available on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp.

Voyage

Reinventions of pre-existing Arcane Synthetic songs.

The initial spark was to grant artists 100% control over Arcane Synthetic tracks of their choosing. This process would come to fruition in the form of remixes.

Employing the idea I'm hoping to achieve deeper understanding for myself and my audience of the original reports on the human condition.

All tracks featured on this EP have remained untouched exactly how I received them.

I feel there's magic taking place whenever pieces of art receive reinterpretation. Each piece is reworked revealing renewed light upon initial interpretations of the original.

A Room Between the Rooms

Instrumental electronic and post-industrial solo project of Eric St-Onge in Winnipeg.

Influences include Nine Inch Nails, Tangerine Dream, and science fiction stories.

TPPP's music attempts to create and convey fictional worlds and stories, without the use of lyrics. Each track is thoughtfully crafted, often with highly dynamic structures and instrumentation that tends toward blending dark electronic tones with bright organic melodies. 

The focus is on producing cohesive concept albums rather than standalone singles.
