Exquisite Corpse

A surrealist collage of Victorian aesthetics and LA beat scene glitch. Haunted Omnichord melodies meet rapid-fire sampling in a whimsical, macabre dance.

It's like a haunted 1920s radio station being remixed by a time-traveling glitch producer.

A playful yet ghostly exploration of mortality through the lens of a Victorian music box.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way the percussion splintering in 'Dearly Departed' contrasts with the somber, breathy vocal delivery about unkempt hair and dim rooms.

The frantic, jittery rhythmic breakdown in the Prefuse 73 remix where the beat feels like it is physically tripping over itself.

The transition into 'The Crippled Hand' where the lush, organic textures are suddenly sliced into microscopic, rhythmic fragments.
