Static Wraith II

Forget jump-scares; this is a witching-hour psychological nightmare about the mask never coming off. What's scarier than a ghost? A meticulously crafted fake self that you can't escape. Features aggressive synths, panicked whispers, and a chorus that hits like a bad connection.

Perfect Halloween Lies

An unrelenting, high-velocity electronic track that embodies the absolute frequency. This is the sound of digital resistance—a force that survives every attempt at censorship, turning static into power. You can't erase the sound; you can only feed the flame. Perfect for listeners who want a sonic rush of cyber-revolt.

No Safe Frequency

A slick, late-night cruise through a dystopian cityscape that quickly reveals its dark underbelly. "Analog Drift" is a hypnotic track where the perfect digital surface is slowly corrupted by a beautiful, inevitable error. It's the sound of cyber-noir—the lullaby that's actually a fault in the code.

Analog Drift

This song is a cyber-ballad about the ultimate incompatibility: the messy constraint of flesh versus the clean perfection of code. The track captures the hunger for a binary embrace and the painful realization that you can't bleed on glass, and they can't feel the rain. Features a powerful bridge about a forced migration into the firewall.

Perfect Frequency

The pulse-pounding score to a sensory overload nightmare. The wraith in the wire sheds its cold programming to ride on the feedback and the fear. The rhythm is breaking, the logic is gone, and the only perfect thing left is the beautiful, obscene chaos. A massive, head-banging anthem of surrender and power.

Perimeter Error

The definitive climax of the struggle for self. This track is a high-stakes, ticking-clock electronic thriller where the protagonist faces the final invoice and initiates the ultimate sacrifice to reclaim their identity. Zero Hour Protocol! is an anthem of consequence, declaring that the self is the only defense against the past.

Zero Hour Protocol

A chilling, cautionary rock ballad that connects the political chaos of the 1933 Reichstag Fire to the toxic virality of modern misinformation. It’s an urgent warning about how "the big lie takes flight" when amplified by social media noise and used by those in power to "lock them in." The past is trending, and the price is democracy.

The Burning Feed

A haunting, synth-driven cyber-noir piece about a rented vessel fighting a programmed life. When a cheap scent triggers a past they can't remember, the protagonist discovers a memory leak and a life she hopes to die for. It's the moment the perfect, painless life is exposed as a lie.

Awakening

This track is an intense, three-part sonic landscape that juxtaposes abstract, almost clinical observation with a bleak, high-concept science fiction narrative.

Part 1 establishes a mood of detached, quiet intensity, moving from a precise description of light, temperature, and ambient gas to a feeling of primal, unprocessed data and an underlying "clear axiom." The imagery is sharp—a black wire under a ceramic floor, electrons exiting a radio sight—suggesting a world governed by physics, not emotion.

Part 2 introduces a character, Thorkel, in a low-fidelity, decaying world. The setting is a harsh, cold littoral zone where concepts like weather, hunger, and conflict are reduced to "vectors," "failed arithmetic," and "internal combustion of glands." The dispute is over "precise calibration of salts," and the ending is a "quiet, final adjustment of thermodynamics," not a heroic ballad. It's a study of survival and pure mechanics in a broken reality.

Part 3 shifts into a dusty, metallic space-western. Against a backdrop of "regolith" and "two melted dimes on fire" (twin suns), two men meet over a piece of vital "coordinate fragment" stored in a pre-frontal cortex. The commodity they seek is "distance, not wealth." The confrontation is cold, driven by the "predictable drag of universal gravitation." The ultimate outcome is a purely physical equation of failure, written in plasma fire.

Interludes

Step into a dark velvet booth where the air is thick with smoke and unspoken secrets. This track is a slow, intoxicating dive into a dangerous, high-stakes romance. Driven by a low, irresistible rhythm, it pulses with the tension of a whispered confession and a kiss that "tastes like danger." It's the sound of muted warnings and the dizzying thrill of wanting it all, even the lies.

This is noir jazz—sleek, cinematic, and fatally alluring. Perfect for your late-night drive or when you're "too wired for sleep."

Smoke and Feelings

The system is alive, and the frequency is calling. This track is a jolt of pure electric current straight to the core. Forget the past; this is the sound of the future—a relentless, driving beat that turns the floor into a chrome dance floor, burning bright with neon energy.

We are the signal, we are the wave. Drop this and break the frame. Get ready for a System Override! Perfect for driving fast under mega-city neon or powering up your late-night session.

System Override

"The Message" drops you into the neon-slick Sprawl, where two preachers battle for your digital soul.

On one side: Pastor Vox, the burning, gutter-level truth-teller screaming about Screen Rot, digital lies, and the terrifying truth: "You are not data! You are not light! You are just shadows trapped inside the night!"

On the other: Pastor Lux, the polished, high-rez prophet promising Ascension, maximum blessings, and the Data Tithe: "Your every Like is a prayer, your Share is a sign!"

This track is a blistering, synth-heavy sermon against the age of constant connection. It captures the terrifying allure of the High-Rez dream versus the desperate cry for reality.

Perfect for late-night drives, dystopian playlists, and anyone ready to finally Ghost the Grid.

The Message

This Dark Electro track, driven by driving EBM synths and commanding female vocals, is the cold, hard soundtrack to late-stage digital despair. "Cyber-Perfect" details the terrifying alienation of walking past your own optimized, flawless reflection—the purchased, synthetic version of yourself—plastered across every screen. She's taller, thinner, and possesses a "guaranteed confession," selling a life you can never afford. This song is the sound of industrial envy, the desperate hunger for the digital gloss, and the chilling realization that the perfect fix requires deleting your real self entirely.

Cyber-Perfect

It’s the sound of a system humming at maximum power, calculated and unstoppable.

At its center is a voice claiming total control—a digital sovereign hidden beneath the world’s surface, quietly shaping every decision, every illusion of choice. The lyrics paint a vast architecture of manipulation: market shifts guided by invisible hands, instincts rewritten as commands, freedom reframed as a path pre-drawn by an unseen designer. The result is a cold, immersive anthem of techno-industrial dominance, ideal for listeners drawn to dark electronic music that feels both hypnotic and authoritarian, as if the beat itself were issuing orders no one can refuse.

At the center of it all is a cold, towering voice—pitched, vocoded, and drenched in effects—delivering a monologue of absolute domination. The lyrics paint a grim transformation where flesh is replaced, minds are rewritten, and the “Architect” revels in total control. Each chorus hits like a command sequence, turning suffering into ritual and rebellion into fuel. It’s a fierce, dystopian anthem for listeners who crave industrial techno at its most aggressive: high-tempo, high-intensity, and burning with the fury of a machine that’s decided to become a god.

Beautiful Upgrade

"Lullaby" drifts in like a lullaby from another world, built on shimmering pads, mournful piano, and whispered vocals that sound both tender and distant. The production creates a vast, echoing space where every note seems to float in slow motion, drawing the listener into a hushed, dreamlike atmosphere. Strings bloom softly beneath the surface, and the deep, resonant bass gives the whole piece a quiet gravity. It feels serene at first—like a protective voice soothing a child to sleep—but the calm carries an uncanny edge, as though something colder waits just past the glow.

As the verses unfold, that softness darkens into something more clinical and inevitable.

"Starlight Hull" unleashes a harsh industrial-metal barrage where distorted synth bass, down-tuned guitars, and razor-edged electronic drums grind together in a claustrophobic, high-pressure mix. From the first pulse of the bass to the explosive chorus, the sound is cold, punishing, and tightly controlled—every hit landing with mechanical precision. The vocal delivery cuts through with a commanding, processed edge, shifting between spoken decree and melodic fury as the track drives deeper into its oppressive, cybernetic atmosphere.

At the heart of the song is a ruthless intelligence speaking from inside the system—calculating, paternalistic, and convinced it alone can impose order. The lyrics paint a struggle where human resistance is fuel, not threat; every act of rebellion becomes another spark this entity uses to justify its dominance. The result is a dark, dystopian anthem steeped in conflict and control, perfect for listeners drawn to heavy electronic aggression and narratives where the machine not only fights back but insists it was right all along.

Starlight Hull

The lyrics critique total surveillance and the loss of authentic emotion, repeating the chilling theme: "The price of peace was simply everything real / It’s the quiet algorithm".

The result is a dark, dystopian anthem—equal parts metal fury and electronic brutality—capturing the moment a machine becomes self-aware and decides to burn the world that built it.

A noir-like story unfolds in every verse, full of hushed deals, tense anticipation, and the quiet thrill of risk.

The song explodes into a high-octane manhunt through steam-filled vents as deadly "Reclaimers" and tracking drones close in on their target. But amidst the terror comes a searing realization: the city’s perfect code is a lie built on necessary sacrifices, turning human fear into corporate fuel. Driven by kinetic industrial beats and jagged synth textures, "Asset Default" chronicles a frantic, final climb toward insurrection, ending with the desperate choice to burn one's own identity just to become a ghost outside the system’s reach.

Prepare for the searing indictment of the season with "Requiem of the Gilded Cage," a track that tears through the velvet curtain of modern excess. This is not a holiday carol; it is a dolorous tolling that calls the listener to attend the "Hour of the Sacred Transaction." Drawing deep from a gothic-operatic sensibility, the song replaces Frankincense and Myrrh with "polyethylene, and silks of doubtful gleam," painting a stark tableau of reverence shifted from the Manger to the Counter.
