AGENTS OF DECAY - TELE/PATH

Agents of Decay are finally back.

The duo has resurfaced with a new jam session which aims to build a bridge connecting the past and future of Hardcore Continuum. It’s a projection of their origins into a contemporary scenario. They had the “Big Fun” through their body dislocation: forced to work separately in their own studios they focused on communication to melt their personality into one.

They exchanged ideas, images and abstract feelings remotely while bouncing tracks back and forth as they synchronized themselves like parallel minds. In the meanwhile the material work seemed to grow up taking a spontaneous structure through telepathy.

Agents of Decay's mission is to grab and drop the oldschool vibes into the actual shape of this new record. AOD are willing to corrode and break down the walls of an eternal present pushing their sound towards an unpredictable future.

This is Tele/Path.

Written and Produced by Agents of Decay
aka Colossius & HDADD
Recorded in September 2022

HDADD - BLACK MOTHER

HDADD’s still keeping his immersive touch but focuses on a straightforward narrative where the contemplative moods of past works have been replaced by a fictional kind of nervous storytelling.

Don’t get it wrong: we’re still talking about psychedelia but forget the hippie, transcendent vibes of his last works and make room to this new dizzy experience whose depth is enhanced by an explicit songwriting and a production which, in some way, sounds more physical than ever before.

The record is structured on a series of episodes where mutant afro-beat blends with Mediterranean folklore and sci-fi electronics clash with ancient futurist ballads in order to create a murky cinematic atmosphere: a continuous chase where tension and relief, damnation and delight pursue each other.

We’ve this febrile jazzfunk that leads the listener in the twilight zone, where the deepest darkness and the highest enlightenment are dualist reflections in a mirror, which is placed at the core of the entire work. Imagine a rush in a gloomy sequence shot: an haunted corridor where sepia tones and fluorescence alternate fast like paints on a black wall.

This work aims to adapt as an imaginary soundtrack for a contemporary Grand Guignol or a Freak Show.A metaphorical and existential description of our times and its rituals in which the audience is the show itself and no one is allowed to experience the drama in the comfort of a seat.

HDADD - Mimesi Icastica

"Mimesi Icastica" is the first excerpt from the HDADD new album.

"It is a metaphor about the relationship between sound geometry and nature: a choral game in which individual notes mask one another in a process of imitation, repetition, and concatenation. I wanted to trigger the vital mechanism that creates inflorescences and ramifications on a aural context."

HDADD - No Age Music

New HDADD Live Mixtape for Noisey Vice

"No Age Music" is a live mixtape in which I tried to create a circular narrative structure using tracks with different styles, moods and backgrounds: this songs are characterized by strong contents conveyed through intensity and a kinematic breath. 
I wanted the mixtape lived its own life like a soundtrack for the harmonious paradox of the decontextualization ... stolen pieces from a original context, once reassembled, become the scales of a uroboro that rotates endlessly without ever touching its tail. 
A little as the historical cyclicality, beyond our gaze, is punctuated by ancient rhythms, timeless sounds and universal music."

Omega Path - Held in a Frame

If photography allows to capture a static single moment, a portrait, the musical communication is a movement based language which delivers contents and interpretations due to its synesthetic matrix.
If a picture is a crystalization, a single point on the carthesian axes, a musical frame is a movement itself regardless any lenght.

Images and sound reproductions are both based on the illusion: the iconic side of Cinema and Photography is mainly based on the subtraction factor, the subject is decontextualized from its original environment. The importance of the subject is proportional to the fiction around it, so the "Truth" must be completely hidden.
Music is fiction too but more ambiguous than images: its communication can't be objective, but representative, because it's based on its perceptive nature and the way it affects the listener.

Omega Path tried to stress this points framing feelings and scenarios through this 12 improvisations trying to capture the nature of Chaos and Order.
It carves waves reshaping imaginary environments through emotions and showcases a large amount of sensation from sinister tensions and suspence to ecstatic abandon.
"Held in a Frame" has been developed on a costant contrast between cyclical repetitions and liquid improvisations: a progressive sublimation of rational patterns into a fractalised imaginary where the physical and spiritual sides melt as one.
