XTCLVR, the brainchild of Ukrainian sound artist and audio producer Artem Diachenko from Buchan near Kyiv, is set to release a new album titled 'INVERSE' on Standard Deviation. XTCLVR cinematic soundscapes have been featured in Standard Deviation’s audiovisual project 'Ridne' showcased at the CTM Festival in Berlin, ICA London and La Gaîté Lyrique in Paris. Known for his deep involvement in Kyiv's underground music scene, Artem is also a key member of the Pep Gaffe and Ejekt collectives, representing a fresh wave of Ukrainian independent artists dedicated to alternative and experimental sounds.

XTCLVR's music is characterized by deep, enveloping ambient passages and sharp synthesizer elements that often transform into hip-hop and dub bass lines. The name XTCLVR (ecstasy lover), created in 2019, humorously echoes with the techno culture.

'INVERSE' unveils a different facet of XTCLVR’s sound, with heavier and more aggressive tones. The traditional genres dissolve, and a grotesque tone draws the listener into a surreal, chimeric journeyThe album blends rich synthesizers and post-club polyrhythms with euphoric, upbeat elements, maintaining his distinctive style. Written throughout 2022-2023, the tracks on 'INVERSE' reflect a time of emotional instability and a dream-like state: is this all for real? The music features liquid sonic textures that escalate into distorted synths, fractured noisescapes, and eerie melodies. A standout track, 'FEEL ME', poses a bold inner dialogue, questioning reality itself.

'INVERSE' will be released on Standard Deviation on the 12th of July 2024.

PREMIERE: XTCLVR - SNAKES VIP [Standard Deviation]

Roadmaps on the palms
Braided, fold over
Where the shore meets the ebbing sea
Forever touching, forever adrift

Whispers of the history fade
Where the sea drapes waning waves
Only to retrace echoing trails
Abiding in ceaseless rims

Rooted in the fertile soil of hauntology, Amulet of Tears presents: 'Before We Melt into the Sea' - chimerical shreds of memoir.  Foraying intervals coiled in visceral resonance, which appear as abyssal, ancestral echoes of elusive moments, where the past unfolds in attendance, like a vapor that forbids to fade.  

Phantoms colliding to forge ahead for what’s to come or to drag us back into the shades of what we once were - enshadowed by imprints of past, present, and future, overlapped upon one another.
