With 𝑽𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒄𝒕, exael’s offering to the ENXPL series, the artist furthers their exploration of what they refer to as “the jester’s gaze”, wherein a variable array of emotions of the fool are less than obvious to decode. In this emotively charged interzonal reflection point, exael probes these psychedelic anxieties through eight varying tracks of accomplished electronic music production. Excavating the root role of the jester and it’s cosmic objecthood, exael takes on a synchronous identity; human and computer, jester and virus, superimposed. Far from a glistening ambient escapism, or sentimental shoegaze meditations, or obligatory club tropes, exael has created a sonic terrain unique to their own narrative and positionality as an artist. Side A of 𝑽𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒄𝒕 showcases exael’s comfort in fast tempo constructions, while the B side offers slower tempoed ventures with guest vocal duties by writer Zoe Darsee moving between trip-hop and industrial affectations.

exael is an alias of Naemi, an artist residing in Berlin. Their work under this moniker aims to upend elements of divergent sonic aesthetics and musical styles, reassembling them with the intent to create diffuse, mulitfunctional contexts. Utilizing exael as an avatar, Naemi attempts to access a collective subconscious via their own, externally processing the sounds and images that permeate contemporary life. Thus, highlighting the ways in which people merge and re-combine with culture on a molecular level as a result of this near-constant immersion. They present stimulating, lysergic sounds in an organic and explorative manner instead of the sometimes exhausting vibe of highly-calculated, experimental club music.

A hyperreal exploration of identity, transformation, and the boundaries between organic and artificial realities, Isaka’s EP Elytra is built on her »hyperbass« framework and a blend of hand-drawn collages, sketches, and AI-assisted 3D imagery. Merging aggressive low-end energy with sound design, glitchy textures, and hyperpop vocals that balance experimental abstraction with dance fever immediacy, themes of insect moulting thread through the work: metamorphosis as a cyclical, layered and often traumatic process.

來自雪梨的製作人 Meathead 以他原始而強悍的聲響風格聞名。他的音樂將 Tribe 元素與早期 techno 的金屬撞擊聲巧妙融合，以俐落又極簡的手法詮釋舞曲美學。他熱烈的類比錄音與飽和的 909 節奏，讓每首作品在舞池中掀起狂熱浪潮。異質旋律與難以辨識的聲音紋理增添迷幻氛圍，讓聽眾彷彿進入一場令人困惑又刺激的聲音旅程。

繼首張專輯《Performance Enhancers》於 Newtown 獨立廠牌 Unknown Tendencies 推出，以及年初於新南威爾斯 Outsider 音樂節的精彩演出後，樂迷們正熱切期盼他更多未曝光的作品。

Sydney-based producer Meathead is known for their raw, muscular sound. His sound is characterised by a playful, minimalistic approach to dance music, blending elements of Tribe with the clang of early techno records. His heated analogue recordings and saturated, percussive 909 rhythms push his tracks into dancefloor frenzy. Unusual melodies and indecipherable sonic textures add a psychedelic edge, making each listen a head-scratching trip.

Following the release of his debut CD Performance Enhancers on Newtown’s Unknown Tendencies label, and a standout set at NSW’s Outsider festival earlier this year, heads are left craving more unreleased muscle.
