Liquid State Drive

</body>

Bit-crushed synths and tape-saturated rhythms that sound like a forgotten hard drive dreaming of the 1990s. A masterclass in digital isolation.

It sounds like your old Windows 95 PC is trying to tell you it misses you.

A lonely, neon-lit exploration of digital decay and forgotten hardware.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The rhythmic, mechanical clicking on 'badblocks' that mimics a failing drive head.
The expansive, drifting synth pads of 'Northbridge/Southbridge' that feel like a slow flight over a motherboard.
The sudden, nostalgic transition into the final track 'SunDisk (サンディスク) 1991' which feels like a memory being overwritten.
