Taken from SBKT040: Yen Tech - Assembler

Release date: 28th May 2021


With Assembler, his second full-length album, Yen Tech re emerges in ecstatic and primordial new form -- a multi-layered and interwoven work that blends futuristic production, meta-science fiction, and anthropic critique into a dizzying array of next scenarios -- a maze-like vision of our technological and exponentially oracular, full-stack future.

This imagined future becomes a construct or place in itself; one in which the record buzzes and swarms; a mechanosphere of towering melodic vocal samples and sound design - all narrated by Yen Tech's unnerving, diaristic vocals - as he channels the form of post-human techno cretin, whispering hyperbolic ASMR to no one in particular. We follow this character from one disorienting experience to the next as he recites a stream of indecipherable neologisms and hyper-descriptives, the existential residue seeping from every line. In the end though, a strange, uneasy beauty comes into focus; the metamorphic lyrics and musical euphorias revealing Assembler as a type of elegy: a wet glass reflection of the failures of what we are and were - and a jubilant celebration of what we may become.

"I imagined Assembler as a type of self imposed simulation, an invisible boundary that the narrator has to navigate out of to move forward. It was a way of looking at how we may carry the issues and failures of the past with us into the future. The psychological baggage of history, the guilt of geotrauma, the addictive melange of technology all become dealt with in this stage of acceptance and recovery. I wrote the album with this in mind, a process to find the slimy pearl of who we are" - Yen Tech

BADGIRLSPIT (s.t3v Remix)

U GOT ME

I don’t think you understand the situation your in 
No one but yourself can forget what you did
The impiety committed on the human identity 
Morality was never gifted to your psychology 
I watched you creeping at the edge of the line
Faded judgment you call “a piece of fog in your mind”

Live a second life full of depression, guilt, anguish 
Even suicide is seeming sublime
I’ll be the one who responds to your pain
I’ll make it fair and play along with an answer in kind
It never mattered how much you were willing to change
Redemption was in sight that even your own patience denied
Left a trace of your previous life you slowly tread across your trenches with no sign of caution
Bringing end to the strain
Stick a needle in a vain and let you lay quietly dormant

Then I’ll drag your head across the pavement
It’s a matter of time
Delusion at the peak, a cursed desire you’re fighting 
It’s so depressing that you’re constantly trying
to ascend yourself and cross into a state of undying
To trespass into domain of the Gods
To tear apart the fabric of primordial law
I understand I have no right to be the judge
But I guess we’ll see what the ghost inside of does

To never let go of your pain
And made the innocent endure and perceive
The total disrespect you wreak upon mortality bearers 
The nature of your soul is one of fantasized sanguinary
Now I’m forced to be your personal adversary 
The point ain’t worth the risk of set climactic catastrophe
Being feared as a threat to society 
But as cunt with asininity
You ain’t shit to me

It’s a matter of time
Delusion at the peak, a cursed desire you’re fighting 
It’s so depressing that you’re constantly trying
to ascend yourself and cross into a state of undying
To trespass into domain of the Gods
To tear apart the fabric of primordial law
I understand I have no right to be the judge
But I guess we’ll see what the ghost inside of does

What Lies Beyond The Door

Made a lil remix of Pink Diamond, hope you enjoy xx

Charli XCX - Pink Diamond(Cnámha Remix)

A 20-track compilation album of mythological folklore mayhem. The physical release will be in the form of limited edition custom made boosterpacks and unique artworks for each artist. Inside the booster pack you will find 20 tracks and 18 depictions of Kludde.

https://soundcloud.com/djwurm

Kludde is a shapeshifting waterdemon that walks on his hind legs and who jumps on to the backs of people wandering outside the city alone at night. When he catches you, you have to walk with him on your back until the first sunlight.

Kludde often transforms himself into a tree, small and delicate at first, but rapidly shooting into the clouds, while everything it shadows is thrown into confusion. Again, he presents himself as a black dog, running on its hind-legs, with a chain round its throat; and will spring at the throat of the first person he meets, fling him to the ground, and vanish.
