’Ego Death’ examines the hero's journey, the death and rebirth of the self, with the psychedelic experience as the narrative mechanism. It’s also a story about how I was changing as a person, a chronicle of my vision, values, and aspirations as an artist during the time of writing.

I’ve been fortunate to have electronic music as a place of healing in my life, a safe space to escape into and explore. Diving into this project at the start of the global covid-19 pandemic when everything was shutting down and things felt so uncertain was a sort of coping mechanism. During the 8-10 months prior to that, I had been overcome by this feeling that I had something more I needed to tell and explore within my work, something that I had been struggling to find and understand. It wasn’t until the mandatory isolation of quarantine that I was able to really parse out and confront what I was feeling and luckily I was able to make it into something tangible. This project is the result of that process.

I think a final point I’d like to offer up is that regardless of where the story ends, there is always a place beyond it. I’ve always loved to think about the unwritten narratives that follow a story's conclusion, about what happens with the characters and places after everything is said and done. I hope that those who take the time to listen to this record will consider that side of things now that this part of my story has ended.

ALEPH - RECOVERY

After his debut single, "qcpyhn2," on Renraku's compilation REALTIME (released February of this year), Slace presents his debut EP, SSD. Scheduled to release November 26th on digital platforms, SSD expands on his maiden voyage with Renraku and explores even more range. Abstract voyages of musique concrète and ambient are run through various genre blends between bass, IDM, halftime, and glitch. The music evolves at the blink of an eye, full of unhinged time signatures and mutated sounds in every measure.

Equipped with synths and Ableton, isolation from society in great parts led to a majority of the vibe felt on SSD, creating the EP over the last year while dealing with depression, existential crisis, agoraphobia, and a breakup. The innovation of electronic sound from artists like Tsuruda, EPROM, and Little Snake are felt across the heavier moments of the EP, while the drifting hypnotic mysticism of sounds from the likes of Loscil and William Basinski plant their feet into the EP by its end. A bold statement of shock and awe dynamics that goes beyond convention and relies heavily on emotional impact and sheer adventure.

Nu Partial - Cross Your Mind

Glad to be a part of this compilation, thank you @antent for having me. This song is fully dedicated to one of my major inspirations @false-noise and also the movie "Annihilation" I have watched recently. "The Shimmer" may be considered as my first attempt to film scoring as I was rewatching the lighthouse scene at the end of the movie over and over again to seed a new idea of how that part might have sounded like. Hope you resonate with me.
