Following stellar tracks on Eastern Nurseries' 2022 compilation 'Wild Love to Grow' and 'Songs For Sirens' earlier this year, Mirror Organs' label debut "Sunless" sees the London-based producer deliver a strident selection of compositions that shimmer on new horizons of what contemporary ambient music can be.

Known for his previous work on his own imprint Steep Incline, Mirror Organs' second album sees the artist in a moment of transition. Sculpted granular harmonics and glitched-out drum programming encircle one another while spectral disembodied vocals cut through with an uncanny valley sensibility. Sonic blasts and ghostly drones offer dynamic richness throughout the album's opening oeuvre, while the tail-end of "Sunless" conjures an altogether headier atmosphere driven by its dancefloor aesthetic impulses. Cut-up breakbeats introduce a readiness to embrace a stroboscopic point of view, set against a glorious backdrop of youthful, post-rave nostalgia. Playful by design, 'Sunless' markedly bears influence from the UK's rich history of dance music innovation as much as it does from recent European ambient movements - a returnal moment driven by Pooley's first experiences with electronic music in the late '00s.

Elvin Brandhi and Nadah El Shazly refuse to turn away from the horror. The intercontinental duo’s Pollution Opera album is an uncompromising futurist depiction of our disfigured, dystopian, and dying reality. Facing hell in full defiance, the experimental noise album catapults itself through a volatile compound of breathless shouts, screams, and screeches, in collision with vocal samples, environmental recordings, and acousmatic sounds. Ten tracks cover the spectrum of electroacoustic fragments and vocalizations, treacherously suspended between the roar of engines and synth distortion, of evocative intonations or guttural retching.

First conceived in 2020, Pollution Opera bubbled up organically from a first tandem motorbike ride through El Shazly’s hometown of Cairo. Singing and screaming through the second-loudest city in the world, Brandhi and Shazly found the extreme noise pollution served as catharsis from the suffocating smog that surrounded them. They then took these sonic specimens into studios across years and countries—from the initial recording and sessions in Egypt to Uganda, where their so-called “cacophony carbon orchestra” would carry into simultaneous but separate residencies at Nyege Nyege in Kampala. There, Brandhi and Shazly reprised the role of the motorbike as their “stage,” in a city where motorbikes are the main mode of public transport. They then developed a live A/V performance from video material captured by Arno Mery, collected from their travels, and reworked by Egyptian artist Omar El Sadek during Banlieues Bleues Festival 2023 in France.

The result is what the artists themselves describe as “an uncompromising world-spew, a shameless alloy of love and hate.” Haptic knocking, barking dogs, and human growls trample El Shazly’s famously evocative Egyptian singing style on “CRÎi Me A River.” Breathless vocal cut-ups and samples are bulldozed by arrhythmic acoustic percussion on “Danse Le Flou.” There are moments of respite within all the chaos, however, whether in the heavily pitched, Auto-Tuned opening of “Pollute Bold” or the wonderfully melodic closer of “Crisp Heart”—its derelict rhythmic thrust giving a listener something to dance about.

Both artists lend their unique positioning and idiosyncrasies to Pollution Opera, whether it’s in artist, vocalist, and musician Brandhi’s avant-garde noise music pedigree as both a solo artist and member of father-daughter duo Yeah You, or
singer, composer, and producer El Shazly’s hybrid catalogue combining electronic music with contemporary classical. Together, in asking the question of what a postmodern opera might sound like, the duo offer their existential answer in the true spirit of the often playful and ironic philosophical position by offering no answer at all.

A deliquesce afterimage forming through slow collisions - trembling erosion, weightlessness, and substantiality, dissolving into granular ripples. Fragmented, porous sequences wrapped together in mellow stasis.
