I wanted Super Gone World to be called anything other than what it is. The name is too "on the nose" for the global dumpster fire going on as this is released. I wrote like 200 other album titles, nearly all starting with the word "super," like any good Supercontinuum release:

Superconvicted Warlord
Supreme Homonuclear Weapon
Superemotional Dynamite Remberer
Supernatural Apocalyptic Event
Supertoxic superheavy metal
Superversalism
Superscum You've Been Dreaming ov Forever
Supervillianous
Super Gone Hole

As you can see, diminishing returns were really setting in, although I really want to use something with "homonuclear" in it in the future.

These songs started from hardware experiments, mostly. And early on I felt two musical directions happening. One was what I called "SCUM RAVE" and the other was "SISSY GABBER."

SCUM RAVE was a music/feeling that was punchy, probably danceable, sickening, like literally sickening, yellow-green (555 nm), and slightly deranged sounding. It was more like a fast techno with some lo-fi bits and grit, and some catchy leads. "Superumbilical" was the first song that kind of sounded like this to me. "Flamers" started to go that way a little bit, but not so much.

Next, SISSY GABBER was an impulse I had after going to ADE in 2023 (Amsterdam Dance Event). I went to Gabberland. It was nearly all white people, who, to me mostly looked straight, and some kinda tough, (even though I saw a good handful of gay gabbers there). After returning back home to make some music, I was like, I am feeling something that has danceable spastic rhythms that are both fast and slow, and queer. SISSY GABBER felt like something emotionally like vogueing and hakken dancing, but is neither. These were just the sensory webs. I did a whole bunch of Sissy Gabber live drum machine freakouts, mostly like 200 bpm things. "Sissy Gabber" on this record is one of them edited down.

The rest of the songs, well, I'll let you discover them, as they were a joy and sometimes a pain to make or mix. (Okay, I will mention that "Topped Bons" comes from an item at Cinnabon that I saw, and I was like, they didn't ask a gay.) I hope you find the sonic journey from start to end refreshing, as there are a couple different styles on this record.

Incredibly big thanks to Sacerdos for being a solid support during the mastering process and Thomas DeLaney for his amazing artwork which fully brings this record to life!

Following the arrest of the Mayor of Istanbul on March 19, 2025, university students who gathered peacefully to exercise their constitutional rights during the growing anti-government protests were detained. Many were subjected to police violence and torture. Students are still on trial, and detentions and arrests are continuing. We stand with all students who defend freedom of expression and strive to make their voices heard! All proceeds from this concert will go to support the detained students who continue to resist for their freedom and stand up for their rights, with the support of the Soli 25 Berlin collective solidarity network.

The Memory of Water Vol. I, the sky moves beneath our feet (2023)
by Camila Agosto

Performed by Martine Thomas, viola and voice, and Camila Agosto, electronics.

About the Piece: 

What if, at the end of your life, your soul dropped into a pool of water—a single drop returning to an ocean, surrounded by other droplets on their separate journeys? As you move forward, you must release the attachments you’ve developed in this lifetime, shedding the layers that defined your identity and individuality. Your memories, roles, scars, and all details that once defined you must be let go. 

The Memory of Water is an ongoing collaborative project that explores the relationship between the natural erosion of human memory and broader ecological concerns through the journey of a life that begins in water and returns to water. This project integrates live composition, improvisation, custom instrument design, poetry, and electronics. Within Volume I, I delve into questions of what is remembered and forgotten, and the impact of change when dealing with loss and grief, through a collection of texts written by Martine Kinsella Thomas, a violist and poet. These texts explore life cycles that start from the ocean and return to the ocean, weaving ecological concern and personal narratives. Volume II continues this exploration through a new collaboration with Martine Thomas and cellist Thea Mesirow. In this volume, we navigate a new environment marked by the murmurs of souls, examining the vulnerability involved in surrendering one’s memory to the distortions of time.
