IDK YOU

i'll cry about this earth in heaven too

Scene 4: The Bathroom

I’m going gizmo
There’s a fallacy
Everyday I wake up and struggle to understand this part of me

Sometimes I feel like the wrong guy for the job
I wake up, look in the mirror, I swear to god
I can put my feelings aside
I’m chasing a dream—Yeah, a hobby of mine

Or maybe I’m just starved for attention
It goes way way way back, all the way to Ascension
So I built this contraption
To add to my collection
Little tiny shards of affection

I’m going gizmo
There’s a fallacy
Everyday I wake up and struggle to understand this part of me

And on my nightstand
I keep a cup of pure source
I charge all of my devices
Same place I keep my swords

(Monologue)

Alright so let’s try and think about it chronologically
I’d say the first thing to really set me off is
I tried LSD when I was seventeen
I didn’t do it for another year maybe—or another two years almost
But, the second time I tried it I had a really powerful experience:
I wouldn’t say it gave me the key to everything but
It certainly took me and plopped me on my path,
My spiritual journey, and—

I'm going gizmo
It's a fallacy

gizmo

apocalypse radio was an abandoned VOCALOID ep that i'd started and almost finished in high school/earlier/kept working a bunch on until it fizzled. but i'd never ended up releasing it at all until i just now was looking through my old files and decided i'll share all the songs as is.

@obelisksydney - Meta Bliss EP
[PAYNOMINDTOUS, PNMTU006, out Dec. 28th, 2022]
* featuring remixes by @ptwiggs and @sus1er *
Name-your-price download
[paynomindtous.bandcamp.com/album/meta-bliss]

The Sydney-based DJ and producer Ryan O'Rourke aka Obelisk (he/him) is an emerging name in the Australian contemporary underground club scene as an organizer of the experimental dance event series Nexus (instagram.com/nexus.eora/) and as an artist, holding releases on local compilations (@deep-scan-radio and @meganesia), and showcasing performances as both a solo artist and with the Winged Mantis duo, alongside Sydney-based DJ @index-exe. The work of Obelisk focuses on the interaction between heavy laptop electronic music and jungle/breakcore influences, mediated by a taste for raw aggressiveness and emotional grandeur that have been arranged in his debut release “Meta Bliss”, out today on our platform. Today, you can stream the first excerpt called "Echoburst" and pre-order the whole EP for 1€!

Composed of three original tracks, the release collects sharp, crystalline, and bursting compositions that feature fast and broken rhythms brilliantly juxtaposed with disfigured synths. While often indulging in the belligerent fury of knife-sharp percussions and booming distortion, the EP often crosses into spacious, euphoric melodies accompanied by frantic but cathartic, tempo-shifting drum work. Obelisk’s goal has been to investigate various ways of experiencing ecstasy and euphoria, whether by means of extreme, overwhelming rhythmic aggression, or breathtaking melodic refrains. While going through the 20-minute EP, one is brought to witness a daring descent into rush. “Meta Bliss” is the heavily cinematic sound commentary to some fast-paced, epic-scale, high fantasy encounter with angel-shaped, all-powerful beings of light under an immaculate sky.

Meta Bliss EP is completed by two remixes by the Sydney-based musician, producer, and DJ Ptwiggs (she/her) @ptwiggs and the Perth-based producer and DJ SUS1ER (he/him) @sus1er. Ptwiggs provides additional tones of darkness to “Illidan Bass” by crafting a 170 BPM deep drum and bass rework rich with clangy breakbeats, and diving deep into the obscurity of the industrial bassline. On the other hand, SUS1ER delivers the perfect closure to the release by re-arranging the opening track “Echoburst” into a 178 BPM hardcore anthem that preserves the emotional impact of the original all the way through the rawstyle finale.

Tracks 1-3 produced and mixed by Obelisk. Track 4 produced, mixed, and mastered by Ptwiggs. Track 5 produced and mixed by Sus1er. Track 1-3, 5 mastered by @wimdehaen. Artwork by K095C [instagram.com/k095c/]
