Following a series of releases on the label Hausu Mountain, Chicago’s Mike Meegan aka RXM Reality makes his Orange Milk debut with Advent, a collection of pummeling electronic impact music. Heavily inspired by the sound mix of blockbuster movies, the music is aggressive with a new industrial feel, where breathing sounds, sword swipes and gun loading clips are manipulated beyond recognition into raw form and texture. In contrast to the mechanical timbres, the actual composition and feel of the music is loose and free; hook-like rhythmic passages will occasionally lock into place, but there isn’t much overt acknowledgement of the computer grid. I think RXM Reality and other likeminded artists are slowly erasing the separation between perceptions of acoustic and electronic music. By interfacing so seamlessly with the tools of creation, the music feels hand-hewn, idiosyncratic, and mechanical all at once.

While often purely percussive, Advent also features a stronger focus on harmony and melody than previous RXM albums, adding a layer of sudden melancholy maybe most notable in tracks like “Character Limit”, which strips back the chaotic bombast in favor of an understated harmonic passage, or “These Days” which begins with an almost gentle looping melodic phrase before aggro rhythmic blasts interject. Mike describes his previous few albums being inspired by darker themes, but by the end of Advent we start to see a lighter perspective shine through.

xato's 4th EP "Annihilation" is an ode to past selves than another music project.

"Annihilation" explores the dark self and the redemption that comes after the following events, with muddy drums and noisy basses being the main sound focus of the project, surrounded by field-recording manipulations and deep evolving textures.

As the opening track, "Reverse" introduces the idea of how our brains remember and process the questionable and hard moments of our past, in a remorseful and harsh one-minute reminder that took place after all the events of "Annihilation".

The second track of the project "Bodies under the Moon", introduces deep drones, lifeless drums on ritualistic patterns and heavy distortion, fused with a sample by the Finnish music composer Mikko Tarmia, best known for his dark scores in critically acclaimed survival horror games, such as SOMA, Penumbra & Amnesia. The sample was used with permission.

"Shattered Dreams" borrows the sonic concept of the previous track. Live processed gnarly bass and an emotionally empty ending, are used as the main expression of the self-titled concept.

"I sacrificed myself to the Gods of Death to live forever inside your body" is a ritual intermission that expresses the urge of merging with one another, for the search of inner peace and security.

The fifth installment of the tragedy, "Destruction", features the notion of life after "death", the birth of new ideas and directions that drag us out of the misery that surrounds us. Deep continuous bass, destructed by the intense emotions of the strings and the progression, fuses the and creates the concept above.

On "From Ashes", xato takes all the textures featured on previous tracks of the project and combines them all together with a piano recording by UK artist Waller, mixing them into a dark, but soothing end to the story.

EP contains bonus tracks "Drowning" & "Strum".
