"Monstas brings out our street and theatrical sides to a fiasco, combining Grime/Dub MC’s and tunes to make a Soundtrack-like experience. The release also marks an end of a Trilogy - which allows us to wrap up our sonic architect skills, and to start from scratch, to dive deep in the unknown - audio and visually."

"Platinum Scatter is a trip along the fringes of music that could still be classified as drum and bass but without the obvious markings of the genre while meeting and merging with forms of techno or music from the wider bass spectrum. I designed this album to be something of a focused journey that should work equally as a cerebral listening experience as much as it should function in clubs. I consider this to be my most conceptual body of work to date, and I hope that you will enjoy its approach to multi-layered rhythms and minimal but striking forms."

Get it here: https://yukumusic.bandcamp.com/album/protect-me-from-what-i-want

"The phrase ‘Protect Me From What I Want’ comes from a Jenny Holzer piece that has resonated with me for a long time now. I can’t speak to her intent in conceptualizing it, but I always likened it to connecting to another person for safety: having someone who loves you to keep you alive. The idea that one could reach a level of indulgence into something so strong that they need help exercising restraint always frightened me. This ep is about falling in love with someone in that space, and losing yourself trying to fight their demons for them. Co-inhabiting a mutually destructive space alongside someone who’s navigating through a greater turmoil than you’re equipped to deal with, and not being strong enough to pull away when it damages you.

The last track on the ep, ‘I Can’t Live Like This’, is the moment of recognition that existing this way isn’t sustainable. It’s when you finally understand that you cannot heal alongside this person, but leaving their side feels like a betrayal; it’s dooming them to collapse under their own vices without you. Relinquishing that love and still being unable to let go. Within that moment of revelation, the hopelessness can feel infinite.

I don’t occupy that space presently, but I have multiple times in the past, and my lack of insight into how I ever left that space is terrifying to me, because it makes me feel like I don’t know how to avoid returning to it with someone new. It’s a disheartening cycle to be potentially caught in.

The cover and accompanying video were created utilizing both machine learning and Photoshop/After Effects."
