@gonima has been on the SVNSET WAVES radar for 6 years now, so it is a true, true honor to finally present his new EP, Strands, with you all. The EP features four gorgeously intricate new original tracks from the Montreal-based producer, each fizzling and dissolving into a mesmerizingly complex yet comforting world. I can only imagine that this is what a computer's daydreams might sound like.
In addition to the four original tracks, each song has a coinciding remix. From @heoliene's hypnotizingly clicky minimalism, to @brakence's super-textural glitch pop, @jimkimchi's vast hyper-IDM complexion, and Permutia's (@fltx & @m_y_s_e_l_f) goofy illbient banger this EP truly has something in it for all the glitch heads.
In addition to its digital release, a limited edition cassette will also accompany the release. Be sure to stream the album, support the artists, and pick up a tape. Huge thanks to gonima for making this absolute treasure of a release and being patient through the tedious process, all of the remixers, who gave their beautiful minds and perspectives on these tracks, Jesse Osborne-Lanthier for the perfect artwork, and all of the listeners who chose to make memories with these songs. Love you all!

So happy to bring you this absolutely invigorating track from our pal brakence. I was out skating when I was first sent this release and automatically fell in love, especially with firstego. It's such a seamless collage of different styles, unique textures, and gorgeous lyricism. The rest of the album is equally wonderful and if you still don't know about brakence, now's your chance.

brakence - firstego

the glass is on the floor
don’t wanna be opaque
that’s my main goal and it ain’t in my domain
i ain’t really rocking with no grill or propane
backing up is only honest when your god oppose fate
and if i wrote a song about it
it’d probably take a day or two, the power lane
cos you’re the reason i’m okay
you’re the reason

my ass can’t park in the left end
you’re an obvious blessing
still tarnish each second
with thoughts of your facial expression
sidebar did I mention
i lost my intentions this weekend
they’re wasted
and i’ma fade out
kinda complacent the way i indite my break down
don’t freestyle but you a free form feat
doubt your resource, we all know you see short of that clear fact
but maybe it’s not a thing that you can handle
but you should know you got me
and know i understand you
showing up a commie
abide by the law tell your dogs
letem all know how you rebel
you ain’t no mess cos

all of us slacking - that’s a waterfall of lessons
a cornerstone of guessing
a preached agnostic message
you know this ain’t automatic, you just practice
when i’m slacking -  that’s a waterfall of lessons
a cornerstone of guessing
a preached agnostic message
you know this ain’t automatic, you just practice 

i’ll confess i can’t remember the last time i felt this exhausted
god knows i ain’t jaded though 
ego focused on the stats
tell your friends i’m coming up like my fuckin mph on the dashboard the more i drive
i’m getting reckless but
but i just wish you could stay the night
remember cincinnati, shit was fire
5 AM i saw a pretty sight
it’s the small things that count most so don’t hate your height
i still got friends in my cycle
5 days in 2 days out - my bible
can’t change habits that’s a working title
i been on a constant downward spiral

like i’m over my head i can’t breath
you fine and you older than me
i ain’t no freeloader i’ll keep more composure the closer i get to you

all of us slacking - that’s a waterfall of lessons
a cornerstone of guessing
a preached agnostic message
you know this ain’t automatic, you just practice
when i’m slacking -  that’s a waterfall of lessons
a cornerstone of guessing
a preached agnostic message
you know this ain’t automatic, you just practice 

we’re way too close to goodbye
and i feel like i ain’t had the time to start
you can’t ever be replaced
known you since seventh grade
that’s real shit, i live amazement
and i remember as soon i got a moment with you i took it
hoping you wouldn’t ignore me
laughing over songs we distorted
i was losing sleep over you cutie
every time you performed you would bleed and it moved me
and it’s alright if you don’t know what to say
cos i can tell you what you’re thinking looking at your face

lovesong//slacker

saw you on stage in the morning
if you looked in my eyes
you couldn’t tell nothing bout what happened before you
i knew i lie when i told it
and even if you’re good guy all california
i ain’t
i ain’t unfolding
while in the broad day taking advice 
i just can’t seem to report it

and i get money in the peak of my vices
just gotta bend my knees
all the numbers/people saying i ain’t got issues, well
your girlfriend can’t lie like me
and i can’t seem to answer my own questions with this time
cos somewhere far ahead 
i go falling far behind

it won’t be heaven when i leave here
i get to movin cos i’m fine
i know i’d never wanna be him
so why the fuck’s he on my mind
i’m gonna find another reason
and i’ll be putting up a fight
and if my eyes are ever speaking
i’m gonna hide it boy won’t cry
 
you were the mindful kind of gorgeous
if i looked in your eyes
i couldn’t tell nothing bout what happened before this
you knew the lie when i told you
even if a good guy wanna explore it
i just
i just can’t afford to
while in the broad day taking advice 
i just can’t seem to consort you

i’ve been waiting to letchu know that i
wanna to hit your telephone cos i
know you’re out in yellowstone but
you make me want to forget that i am made of you
sitting in the back thought “this was what i want”
“it’s what i want”

oh i was dead wrong
now i got nothing
and i just can’t think about who i’m crushing
i was dead wrong
i can’t fix dead air
shit too far away shoulda stopped fighting to care
i was dead wrong
weak shit
mind my business
i’m just trying to make what I love a living
i lost hope fuckboys thought me a ceiling
too insecure to let them know how i was feeling

it won’t be heaven when i leave here
i get to movin cos i’m fine
i know i’d never wanna be him
so why the fuck’s he on my mind
i’m gonna find another reason
and i’ll be putting up a fight
and if my eyes are ever leaking
i’m gonna hide it boy won’t cry

boywontcry

pains (ft. brakence)

slow down
breathe
what’s in the ground beneath your feet?
get out that screen and let it go
a blue check screams
i always whispered what you want
and it was right here all along

cos i found something with a taste you can’t describe
you take it in and all your roots get intertwined
and every time i call you back you’ll know you’re fine
i know you’re fine

there’s no cancer in the water
it’s not an answer or a dream
your mother and your father would rather blow it all on ginger tea
more than offer than a feed

you’re ready for it
think it’s for the best you leave this town
you’re ready for this now

breathe
slow down
breathe

terrified when i’m bout to be brave
since danny hit me i been killing the game
power to you if you’re riding the wave
could give a fuck about the money or fame
take you and your girl right back to my place
cos man or woman i’ma fuck you the same
picking me up when she’s back in my state
a quick flight to nyc for some cake
touch down 50 came in the clutch
my boys bound for something bigger than us
cuts deep like a knife it’s some shit you can feel
my momma love me and her willpower steel
ex’s heart bouda beat out my chest
i’m sorry bout me and i wish you the best
i just wanna fuck
the marajuana got me scared of trauma but i’m gon be okay
good sex every day
green checks life ain’t grey
this is fate
fill my plate with acid salad and breaks
i get drunk and she gets stupid high
i just chilled cos I don’t wanna try
when i don’t know what the fuck to say
i don’t know what the fuck to say
i don’t know what the fuck to say

ginger tea
