Lyrics :)
Crawling under your skin,
Under your skin,
You've got me, under your skin
Aaaah, Uuuhuu,
Aaaah, Weeeh,
You've got me, under your skin
(inhale)
Weeeeh
Aaaah, Uuuhuu
Aaaah, Weeeh
“Compound” is a chemical fusion of tones and textures. Acid, dub, breaks, and bass collide over raw synth structures. Each track operates as a distinct experiment in rhythm and frequency, emphasizing modulation, tension, and sonic architecture, forming an analytical exploration of electronic sound.
The journey begins with "Iter", a nervy, acid-dub-laced stepper powered by shifting sub-frequencies. Sharp as a dagger, grounded in density.
"Under Your Skin" spans six minutes and contains three main movements, blending breakbeat rhythms with gutting bass and a vocal atmosphere, then transitioning into amplifying resonant tension that builds to a critical point before dissolving into a beatless escape.
“Take Me Back” is a bass-heavy beat cut with synth-stabs, run through quarter-inch reel-to-reel tape and intended to throw you back to the rave-up days.
"Xhale" brings the electro energy, backed by a layered breakz and a dynamic 303 line, creating a modulating groove that captures motion, flow, and propulsion.
The record closes on “Day 0”, an introspective piece built from multiple synthesizers, each carrying fragments of the primary sequence. Together, they form a fusion of textures that align into a single consolidated pattern.
* "Day 0" is a side B exclusive track, available only on the vinyl cut.
The artwork by Someone Else reflects the core idea behind the project: different elements coming together to form a self-contained unit. The “N” shape, built from merging color tones, points to connection and movement, like nodes in a system with converging paths. Each track is its own piece, but together they create a unified experience.
