From Unrest To Atrophy

A strange looking human who enjoys music...

The Luna Sequence is the Electronic Rock project of Kaia Young. Having had an interest in electronic composition spurred on by the discovery of 90s dance and techno, followed by an immersion in the local college punk & metal scene, Young has synthesized diverse influences into a nascent hybrid form of Drum & Bass, Electronica, Metal, and Punk that has solidified over the course of six releases since early 2009.

While so far purely instrumental, the output of The Luna Sequence is both deeply emotive and highly cerebral in nature; it is a vehicle for both Young’s own internal emotional processes and her examination of the imperfect complexities of the human psyche at large, a theme reflected in the origin of the project’s name. Kaia explains: “The name was taken from a policy review of a psych facility. The author proposed a theory he jokingly called ‘The Luna Sequence’ regarding the residents’ self-abuse and suicide attempts during full moon cycles. The facility had a policy of pre-emptively locking everyone in isolation rooms before the full moon, and the author couldn’t understand why an otherwise well adjusted and behaved person would try to hurt themselves when put in isolation ‘for their protection’. People will be dysfunctional if you convince them that they are dysfunctional…” Most of the project’s releases have investigated a variety of such cognitive oddities that plague human-kind.

Because it is what it is
ain't ain't a word
tomorrow never comes
fell for the old new techniques 
clapping cheeks is twacking
standing still is running away
we fall into the sky
land in the sea of dreams
porcupine pricing is a go
not another pookie lost 
twerk is the quirk
movements are past five
the OA the OA the OA
beware oblivion is at hand
foot or so deeper and we could flex
starset upon that for a dance
philosophical linear quantum tunnel
