Qömio - Mano o Mano Me and My Demon

Set en vivo grabado en una toma directa, construido a partir de patrones mentales y texturas hipnóticas. Empieza con una intención dub techno espesa, pero muta hacia un territorio más crudo, experimental y mental.
Ritmos filtrados y bajos modulantes ejecutados con Electribe 2 Sampler, Volca Bass y dos Korg NTS, en sincronía caótica.
Este set es un viaje introspectivo, donde el pulso maquinal se diluye en el humo de la repetición.

-----

Live set recorded in a single take, built from mental patterns and hypnotic textures.
It begins with a dense dub techno intention, then drifts into a rawer, more experimental and mental territory.
Filtered rhythms and modulated basslines executed with an Electribe 2 Sampler, Volca Bass, and two Korg NTS units in chaotic sync.
This set is an introspective journey, where the mechanical pulse dissolves into the haze of repetition.

Mecánica del Vértigo (Live Set)

Dust in the Light
In the wake of urgency comes the time of invisible scars.
R-statine Bloom cleans what cannot be seen —
the deposits, the residues, the fatty memories of disorder.
A cold breath flows through synapses;
textures clear, and sonic colors soften.
Light filters through the wreckage.

R-statine Bloom

Serra explora uma estética próxima do hardcore eletrônico, com graves distorcidos que evocam a presença física e repetitiva de riffs de guitarra no heavy metal. A faixa apresenta uma estrutura rítmica contínua e agressiva, construída sobre uma base sólida de kicks densos e elementos percussivos incisivos.

Os timbres são saturados e diretos, com variações sutis que mantêm o pulso em constante tensão. A ambiência é reduzida, favorecendo uma escuta frontal e energética.

Serra mostra peso e ritmo com clareza. A composição propõe uma experiência sonora contundente, que cruza referências do techno extremo com a energia bruta de linguagens sonoras mais pesadas.


Serra draw from hardcore electronic aesthetics, with distorted low-end patterns that recall the physicality and repetition of heavy metal guitar riffs. The track features a continuous and forceful rhythmic structure, built around heavy kicks and sharp percussive elements.

The sound palette is saturated and direct, with subtle shifts that sustain a constant pulse of tension. Ambience is kept minimal, favoring an upfront and energetic listening experience.

Serra show weight and rhythm with precision. The track delivers a raw sonic experience, merging elements of extreme techno with the visceral energy of heavier sound traditions.

Système apresenta uma estética techno escura e noturna, com foco em timbres secos, estrutura linear e progressão contida.

A construção rítmica é firme e constante, com kicks pesados e elementos percussivos que funcionam como engrenagens, sugerindo um ambiente mecânico e repetitivo. Os sintetizadores têm função mais textural do que harmônica, ampliando a sensação de clausura e tensão.

Système aposta na repetição como forma de hipnose e no espaço negativo como elemento ativo da composição. O resultado é uma faixa sóbria, funcional, feita para a pista, sem concessões estéticas.


Système embraces a darker, more stripped-down approach to techno, with dry textures, linear structure, and a restrained progression.

The rhythmic foundation is solid and mechanical, driven by heavy kicks and percussive elements that resemble gears in motion. Synths are used more for texture than harmony, enhancing the track’s sense of confinement and tension.

Système relies on repetition as a tool for hypnosis and uses negative space as an active compositional element. The result is a sober, functional track — designed for the floor, with no aesthetic compromises.

Sintetizadores, samples y ruido se funden en una tensión continua — un viaje hacia lo más crudo y experimental del techno.
