"I hate being recorded," Mala says nine minutes into this interview. "I don't like my sets being recorded, I don't like being video recorded." The Deep Medi boss and DMZ cofounder is describing his fiercely independent nature to journalist Kieran Yates, explaining how bright lights and prompts leads to self-consciousness. That's why DMZ parties are held in dark rooms, as to encourage freedom, he continues.

Authenticity is a defining theme of Mala's career. Speaking to Yates live at SOUP in Manchester as part of RA's 21st birthday celebrations, the Croyden-raised artist discusses how signing a record deal with EMI at the age of 20 led to misrepresentation. This early exposure to the industry's commercial backbone paved the way for DMZ's democratic, inclusive ethos, he tells Yates. "If I create something that's true to myself, and I can live an authentic existence, somehow by us all being ourselves, I think that makes the world better."

🧠⚡ Dr. Flux & Eonix – Sound Surgery: Session 1 ⚡🧠  

Ein Experiment.  
Eine Operation.  
Eine Reise durch Frequenz, Wahnsinn und Wiedergeburt.  

„Sound Surgery: Session 1“ ist kein normales Album – es ist ein audiovisueller Eingriff in dein Bewusstsein.  
Von der ersten Verbindung im OP-Saal bis zur finalen Eskalation auf der Festivalbühne führt dich dieses Projekt durch eine dystopische Welt aus Maschinen, Psy-Energie und brutalen Hardcore-Kicks.  

💉 Was dich erwartet:  
– Hard Psy × Gabber × Dutchcore × Terrorcore Fusion  
– Cinematic Storytelling über 17 Tracks  
– Industrial Sounddesign, KI-Stimmen & medizinische Atmosphäre  
– Massive Drops, verzerrte Kicks & hypnotische Frequenzen  

👨‍⚕️ Story:  
Du bist der Patient.  
Dr. Flux & Eonix übernehmen die Kontrolle.  
Dein Geist wird neu programmiert, dein Körper wird zur Frequenz.  
Von der ersten Injektion bis zur vollständigen Transformation durchläufst du eine Sound-Operation, die dich verändert.  

⚠️ Warning:  
Dieses Album ist nicht für schwache Nerven.  
Hohe BPM, extreme Basslines und aggressive Soundstrukturen können zu vollständiger Realitätsverzerrung führen.  

🎧 Genres:  
Hard Psy | Industrial | Gabber | Dutchcore | Terrorcore | Psycore  

🚨 Highlights:  
– „Dream Incision“ – Dutchcore Wahnsinn  
– „Voltage Therapy“ – Uplifting Terror Explosion  
– „German Iron Mission“ – Militärischer Reanimations-Drill  
– „Operation RAZZIA“ – 230 BPM Flucht durch Chaos  
– „Frankenbeat (It Lives!)“ – Festival-Endboss  

🩸 Final Message:  
You entered as human.  
You leave as frequency.  

🔥 Turn it loud. Feel the procedure. Become the sound. 🔥
