Benedikt Frey - Fastlane [ESP Institute // ESP103]

Close your eyes and merge into Benedikt Frey’s 'Fastlane'. Imagine sitting in the driver’s seat of a an automobile, one with exceptional horsepower and torque, as you stare out the windshield at the red light, warping in fata-morgana a mile down the road. It’s a straight-away, a black top with two lanes, and against your better judgment you decide to floor the gas. 

No hesitation in your muscle, your ankle or the ball of your foot, which you now realize is some kind of universal pivot, the first point of contact fusing your body with the will of machine. In this moment you’re in awe that you, a human, an animal, grew from pond scum into something so advanced as to engineer this thing, a mechanical beast capable of overwhelming power and exhilaration. 

But you also feel a seductive dread, an outside force diverting you from caution toward a dangling carrot of curiosity, asking yourself, ‘How far can I take this thing?’ The dread, now a constant, is numbed, equalized by an adverse intoxicating gratification. 

You feel both sensations in real time, however, rather than take responsibility for yourself, friends, family and innocent bystanders, you cement your foot to the floor and lean your head back. Noise around you fades to mute. Smell the benzene-scented air, feel the wind on your face, the menacing vibration of the vessel you control beneath you and every grain of asphalt under its tires. This mile has now lasted an eternity and you’ve left your body for some objective view, as if watching climax of a film. 

Past the point of no return, you embrace abandon and lean into fate. The film becomes slow motion, a crawling pace so mesmerizing you convince yourself of an option to eject yourself from this madness, but as you finally let go of your last morsel of fear, you run the red light head-on into the nucleus of a fantastic glistening sculpture of torn metal, glass, oil, broken dreams and heartache. 

'Fastlane' may be just drum machines and synthesizers if you’re timid, but listen harder and know the catastrophic reality of existence, a wreckage so gruesome we dare not rubberneck, but afterall it is our nature to stare.

Join us on a journey through space and time with the debut album of Jeremiah Soft, the mystical figure now returning to Dalmata Daniel. He made the album between November 2021 and June 2022, a time during which he got closer to nature, long walks, and existing in forests in general. Through 9 tracks and 60 minutes, we can wander around atmospheric universes, walk up the hills and down the paths of the mind of the artist.

Throughout the whole album, a sense of calmness is prevalent regardless of the rapidity of the songs. A dichotomy is created by the soft, acoustic sounding melodies and the quick, abruptly changing, metallic drum patterns. Just like the wilderness, it becomes a balanced system of tranquil harmony and tense alertness.

Side A of the cassette starts out with two melodic pieces, ‘Quicksilver Qualities’ and ‘Vermillion’, operating with ambient-like synths and delicate drums. Then, almost as if nightfall came, we venture into darker territories. The next two tracks, ‘Chiroptera’ and ‘Flight of the Vesper Bat’, as the titles suggest, serve as musical notations of the aeronautics of the nocturnal creatures; the kick-drums arrive, the basslines are getting heavier, and the playfulness of these songs turns into almost chaos. ‘The Pacific Crest Trail’ features as an interlude, and we experience a few moments of stillness in the dark with a muffled, dubby soundscape.

Side B rushes into an 11 minute heavy-hitter, ‘PNW’, packed with action and amen break. ‘Amber Eyes’ is of the same weight, which is perhaps the coldest in tune out of all with its strikingly digital sound design, is the track for the freezing minutes just before dawn. Sunrise strikes with the rework of Bach’s cantata in which the morning birds also start to sing. ‘Elliptic Routes’ comes with a bittersweet melody and a comforting rhythm, and accompanies us back to daylight, the universe most known to humans.

in a broader social context, labels can lead to marginalization, exclusion, and black-and-white thinking about individuals and groups. They may contribute to fixed or limited definitions that do not fully capture the complexity of human identity. Labels can also lead to assumptions and stereotypes that limit individual expression and interaction. Just Saying x
