“寧為玉碎不為瓦全” 

WA?STE is the moniker of Felix Idle--producer, artist & Valley Spirit Recordings label head, based out of Melbourne, Australia. He makes music that characterizes both the curiosity and content fatigue stemming from long hours online. He rips the euphoric guts from trance, gabba & other hard dance genres, re-integrating it into slower but no less ambitious instrumentals. This aggressive eclecticism forms a bed for his saccharine vocal melodies & gently blurred-out lyricism. He has supported M.E.S.H., Air Max 97, Lone, Holly Herndon and Eternal Dragonz' V Kim, as well as having collaborated with Mya Gomez and Ptwiggs on newer productions. 

Hollow Vessel is his first release under this current moniker. The title refers to the feeling of being an observer to events in one's own life, of acquiescing to fate.

Baby, just because
they dig up   
your body
and kiss your bones
after they bury you
that doesn't mean they have earned redemption
greet them in hell
with your skeleton smile
remind them
you have been laying with your demons
far longer than you have been laying
in that shallow grave they forced you into

ARANYAL: A Mix

Artist: @menciusleonard
Catalogue Number: IM081
Album: Blinded Boy Goes Deathways 
Release Date: September 25th, 2020
Format: Digital 


For his debut on Infinite Machine, Mencius Leonard presents Blinded Boy Goes Deathways: a suggestive EP that delves into the most visceral side of the New-York based producer with a compendium of intense compositions that fluctuate between scatterbrained electronic experiments and post-apocalyptic pop music. A provocative release full of eclectic and hellish sonic explorations that discloses the uncanny side of the common.

Pushing forward the boundaries of his previous work, Mencius Leonard takes one step aside on his ethereal and relaxing productions to reveal a more forceful and harsh aspect of his music; this release represents its mutating experience of being in a constant dialogue with inner sensibilities, a collapse of crushing sensations willing to be assumed in impending ways.

Powerful industrial sounds collide with distorted atmospheres and heavily processed vocals, the altered and intense explorations that Mencius Leonard carefully composed for Blinded Boy Goes Deathways can be associated to chaotic scenarios and ghoulish sensations.

A frantic spectrum of clanging surroundings dives into complex layers of styles and references that oscillates in confrontational ways across the EP, binding together a vast number of musical influences that can be traced from japanese speedcore to punk blues.

Between the disturbing mechanical compositions and the beat-driven robotic ballads, Blinded Boy Goes Deathways explore extreme reactions to provocative transmutations. It’s an unapologetically sound piece that does not hesitate to saturate with overwhelming ambiences. An adventurous soundtrack for the end of the world.

World Canvas is proud to present the latest work of Ostrava based artist Strachkvas (Metoděj Motýl). 
Known as an active contributor of the Czech collective Gin&Platonic, their previous musical practice has navigated a triptych of abrasive club music songs, as showcased on their last year’s release ‘Break-in’.
Their new piece of music at hand, ’Blind Worm Variations’ is a display of evolving compositions which travel seamlessly within a world of ethereal ambiences & disjointed club music fragments, reminiscent of a space that once was but the memory of it still remains.
Over the course of it’s three songs, ’Blind Worm Variations' creates a world of elegance and beauty which is as eerie as it is captivating, calling and mysterious.
