This is not an album that makes sense. It wasn’t supposed to.
"Make Believe I Make Sense" is a 10-track anti-anthem for the structurally unwell. AdJust in Time throws recorded objects, distorted signal chains and digital chaos into a blender set to “why not,” then skips the part where it gets mixed properly.

There are no smooth transitions. No predictable resolutions. Rhythms appear, then trip over themselves. The sounds don’t fade out — they escape. Ideas emerge half-baked, malformed, and are proudly left that way.

You won’t find polish here. You might find humor. Or anxiety. Or moments that sound like your hard drive is melting in slow motion. That’s the charm. Or maybe the warning.

Interpret it however you want. Or don’t.
This is what happened when AdJust in Time stopped trying to make sense and made something better.

fuck it, that's show biz
luckily i thrive on the brink of psychosis
streetside sound got the scene & the swamp on surveillance
i'm still slingin' soundwaves until further notice

lyrical lotus
should study the way i been pushed thru the mud from the jump
but stay fly to the tip of my tongue
i'm mother, the way that i reach for the sun

can't be warm wit y'all hoes, got reptilian blood
these lil rap boys don't be talkin bout nun
i should know, fire my 2nd language
these lames addicted to validation

ione even work for the engagement
heard you been starin at blank pages since you downgraded
see, i make art cuz i'll die if i don't
you do this shit for their entertainment

it's insane ain't it? how i can no-brain it?
how i mix the sound potion so potent, serve it up to the crowd & collect payment
i got 3 in my bag plus like 8 digits
yeah, i know i sound sweet but don't play widdit
imma need you to stay out my way lil jit

my goons don't miss when they shoot, hide you in the lagoon
any beat that you send, i'll treat like a spitoon
book a gig at the beach & we'll pack out the room

i pull up to the show on a redneck pontoon
madi be rackin in backend doubloons
when she not in the stu off an 8th of the shrooms

from @glitch-dot-cool enfant terrible to unbound crooner, there are few more implacable, earnest and radically shifting entities in electronic music than Copenhagen’s @zack-christ - The 2024 EP 𐘲(𐘨)𐚎𐘲𐝥𐃀𐘡𐘴𐝂 evinced an archly disruptive approach to glitch music, gutting to the rubble of computational noise any expectations of a lofty ambience + waveform post-expressionism dyad, only to interject those same ambient climaxes whenever it was they would most sublimely strip a person to a soul. Then turned up this February’s Underbearing. Underbearing is miraculous. At times a confessional and exultant pop record, at others destructing any expectable structures of glitch and noise into a tableaux of sounds and shapes beyond categorization.

Zack’s mix is a mirror of the mind that produces this music. Contiguous are, and linked by an unquestionable emotional logic, chittering, stunted glitch and metal, grunge and chamber pop. Little is more important here than an openness of feeling. Genericity, associability, taxonomical means by which to synopsize an artist are disintegrated in the face sheerly of expression. Sequentiality, excusatory entrancement, the disappearance of the conductor into the comfiture of predictability - any such notions are evaporated in the reappearance of the conductor as an immediacy. I cannot not see the sparkle of an apotheosis of possibility because I am shown at every turn a music that is not simply sufficient but essentially contributive to an entirety of irreplicable beauty. And that is again where the conductor disappears - into the music that says all that is before these words and into all the afters they should never need to say. And something emerges like a person, disappearing and reappearing. Agleam in their disappearance and reappearance, and agleam in the states between.

As a final word, Zack wrote of the show -

With this mix I have attepted to curate:
The highest level of underground culture
Music that brings me joy
A few of my own tunes (including a little teaser at the end for my next record that drops on 19th September)

OMISSION

RE_STRICT

Long toiling at the most guttural of industrial-noise-hyperglitch hybridicity, when Liège’s @romanowitch unveiled a critical season substitute on glitch.cool this March, it represented the re-emergence of a fragmentary magician now adept with a music exclusively his own. This was an astonishing record excavating a sonic world original because it occupied no territory delimitable beyond the hands of its conductor.

Romanowitch’s music is one of the screeching soul of material. The squalls of cinder, bawlings of a foundry, the timescale of spark and friction and something embrously angered. Songs of soot and scraping - their mediating, generative sludge matched equally by the extemporaneous mode of composition. The relationship between the industrial and the computational is focalized, with this focus rendering overlaps between the codified and automotive comprehensible. Between bits and matter is a world of beings always escaping aestheticization yet always revelatory of activity. In Romanowitch’s music is a legion of constructive objects all conscious enough to escape reduction. A society of subordinate states whose slipperiness permits the listener to intimate a world of things particularly alive. A particularity that adumbrates a universal indeterminacy.  

His Realist mix follows the same track as ACSS. Murmurs of the human here intrude, as debodied yawns and moans, and in Daveed Diggs’ bookending vocals - never first-person, always contradictorily total, descriptive of the disappeared to the horror of night. Talk of bloody incidents so indecipherable as to be cosmic. There are shards of genericity, but no break nor pulsation nor hiss ever feels without the presence of something either monstrous or angelic, like Romanowitch saw heaven and hell in the energetic agentiality of every sound to emerge from a silent thing.
