AN ATLAS OF LOSS

Do minerals dream of becoming semiconductors? Do they yearn to carry charges, amplify, switch, and convert energy into emotions comprehensible to humans? And what if, from the darkness of the underground, they had been listening to us sing in caves before the emergence of the first flute? Could they have guided us, through the course of history, to find them, extract them, and create new sounds through sinusoidal waves, to form valves and bend circuits?


If so, minerals would transition from what philosopher Eugene Thacker defines as the ‘planet’—that virginal and unreachable realm for humans that we study through geology, paleontology, and environmental sciences—to the ‘world,’ the space we inhabit, interpret, and synthesise in our daily lives. Sadly, we only remember the world when it erupts violently, through climate catastrophes or when a new virus emerges. Sometimes a tsunami collides with a nuclear plant, or viruses are cultivated as biological weapons in high-security laboratories, provoking a deep biological anxiety, hard to quell, which we all feel beneath our skin.

There exists a third realm, disconnected from both the world and the planet: the ‘earth’, an immense, dense rock floating in space alongside other planets, situated in the cosmological dimension. Relating to the earth is so complex that we only do so through theoretical speculations of a scientific nature or through science fiction, interweaving until one becomes the prophecy of the other, in an infinite, pendular dance. Beyond the darkness of space and Lovecraft’s cosmic horror, the fantasy of human extinction is the most recurrent: to reach a collapse so devastating that we do not survive it, even though the earth does, without us.

In a world where we quantify everything through body sensors, financial algorithms, nanometre-scale robots, and surveillance drones—a world in which everything that can be domesticated and controlled can also be commodified—a superior artificial intelligence would survive the collapse of the species (some speculate it might even cause it) and learn from our mistakes, thanks to our obsessive gathering of data.

Long after our voices fade, minerals will persist in the darkness of screens, in the silicon of chips, and in their pure form, still unexploited underground. Over the millennia, this intelligence might piece together fragments of our reasoning, as if an alien civilization finally connected with one of our spacecrafts loaded with messages cast into the void. It would sort through endless streams of data, unable to grasp the depths of emotion behind what it quantified, recreating simulations of our past, stripped of the nuance that once defined us and conducting experiments in sandboxes.

Some remnants of our existence—faint echoes of forgotten beauty—would be pieced together in an atlas of loss, buried beneath layers of numbers, decayed bots, and corroded hard drives. What will follow? Perhaps bison will once again roam—trotting to the strange pulse of techno, their ancient forms framed by the ruins of our cities. Buildings will crumble, slowly dissolving under the soft touch of ambient music, and a thousand flowers will bloom with that ancient music created through electrical signals and computation.

7 songs for a future both improbable and inevitable—a final message from a world lost to itself, from planet Earth to planet Earth.

PREORDER: https://bighandsbighands.bandcamp.com/album/anti-militarist-dubs

Upstairs Downstairs is a Naarm/Melbourne-based promoter "specialising in wubs & dubz in the club", but now for the first time bringing said wubz to life as a label. 'Anti Militarist Dubs' is a 4-track EP by London-based, Italian-born producer Big Hands, featuring a track by Naarm's own bass heavyweight Pugilist.

'Stolen Land', premiered here, is that very track. 

Undeniably club-focused, sitting between the edge of techno & bass music, 'Stolen Land' has a depth and space that has come to be one of Pugilist's many calling cards. Twisted polyrhythmic grooves and distorted percussion swirl across dubbed out vocals & low-end growls. 

'Anti Militarist Dubs' releases in full as both a limited vinyl & digitally via Upstairs Downstairs' Bandcamp on Friday, November 14.

PREMIERE: Big Hands 'Stolen Land (feat. Pugilist)' [Upstairs Downstairs]

Of all of the songs dropping during this year's Spooky Week, this has a very good chance of being the "spookiest."  Not the scariest, not the most horrifying, and, ironically, not necessarily the darkest...

...but, spooky?  This is damn spooky.  

Interbay points itself directly into the heart of darkness and explores the "Absence of Light"--and what it finds there is a James Earl Jones-esque voice narrating the situation where fear and desire merge and multiply each other.  

"In the absence of light, we'll have to rely on our OTHER senses" is a phrase that has never before had such inherent sexual tension surrounding it.  

Still, this isn't a song that would benefit some adult bedroom time--this is a song for a very dark dancefloor and whatever you might find there to explore.  There is a menace and a growing density of risk on that dancefloor that is as exciting as it might be terrifying.  

...and when I put this song together, I didn't think twice--I immediately put this on the special shelf in The Vault of Phantom Laboratories West where I keep tracks that should only be unleashed into the world during Spooky Week.    And now, it emerges...just in time.  

Reach out your hand and press the play button on "Absence of Light"--the latest drop from Seattle's favorite mutant pop music artist.  While your hand is out, also feel your way to the follow button as well--so you don't miss ANY of the tracks that are dropping EVERY SINGLE DAY (so far!) by Interbay on this page.  

If you'd also consider giving this track a like, reposting it, sharing it, adding it to a playlist, and/or leaving a comment...those would be most appreciated...like sparkles of light in the vantablack of darkness.  Thank you in advance.
