-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Mentrek Project has been brewing since 2022. What started as a series of modular jam sessions and late night hangouts began to take shape over 2023 and 2024, as we invited more of our friends to spend an evening banging out dance tunes. Over the years it's grown to involve 10 artists, unified under the vision of club-ready, bass-heavy tracks molded by Nuan Sonar and Thysbe. 

As we progressed and grew through these collaborations, a system emerged. Hours of recordings of eurorack synthesizers, analog drum machines, and vintage records would then be cut up and arranged. Each track aims to have a solid progression, morphing between techno, dubstep, breaks, and footwork. We refuse to be put in a box, and are constantly experimenting and stealing ideas to refit to our own ideals.

Funkasaurus Rex

One minute, it just was.
It would never leave, and would never miss a day.
Closely observing every incorrect stick and every bum note.
It's jarring rhythms mis-timed against the inharmonious refrains.
I witnessed helplessly as it carefully took each key and every mode, one by one
And discarded them in the jumbled manuscripts strewn beside the bed.

The memories in my fingers and the feeling of the keys
Are nothing but lost memories to painful to recite.
Return the ivory
Untwist the steel from around the guts
Bend the bronze and buckle the brass
Split the heads and snap the brushes.

Now it tolls the bell for me
The ringing ostinato like tinnitus in my ears.
As it holds my attention the cacophony builds
All melodies drowned out and unheard
Like lullabies sung to a tiny grave.
I recoil at every strike, after strike, after strike.

Now I stammer through dry lips
The robes and the flowers and the order are all undone.
It's too final to be up on that plinth, I cannot bare it.
The once tender loving care incinerated.
My prayers are forever left unanswered
As I fall far into the black of the final hymn, and let go forever.
