UK-based industrial electronics artist. Lurking somewhere between death industrial, power electronics and experimental noise, his approach is characterized by intricate compositions, dense analog textures and psychedelic synth-led industrial soundscapes, occasionally layered with spoken vocals Und wir singen im Atomschutzbunker Hurra, diese Welt geht unter!

about Named after the stages of human existence in ancient Greek mythology, “Ages of Man” takes listeners on a conceptual journey through the history of humanity. The album’s narrative defies traditional chronology, unfolding in a nonlinear sequence where the lines between fact and fiction blur; moments both monumental and seemingly insignificant carry equal weight; recent events strike the same chord as occurrences from tens of millions of years ago. Some tracks encapsulate fleeting moments, while others span epochs of evolution. This is not a scientific chronicle by any stretch of the imagination. Instead, it’s a diverse collection of subtle hints and elusive clues, inviting listeners to dig deeper, fill in the gaps, or even craft their own historical timeline that ties all six songs together.

Minimum Sentence returns with “A Beginner’s Guide to Modern Bioethics”, an eight-track dive into some of the most pressing ethical questions in modern medicine and technology. The album explores the subjects of voluntary sale of organs, assisted dying, biological and legal definitions of death, pharmacological enhancements, the rights of non-sentient organisms, human cloning, allocation of scarce medical resources and cryonics.
The album is an eclectic fusion of approaches – here, in equal measure, one will find gritty low frequencies of death industrial, piercing distortion of industrial noise, and psychedelic pulsing rhythms reminiscent of the 1980s UK experimental electronics scene, with a mix of vocals and samples of found media recordings.
Deep but not pretentious, serious but with a pinch of dark humour, “A Beginner’s Guide to Modern Bioethics” doesn’t offer answers – in fact, it doesn’t even bother asking questions – but it skilfully captures the tension between progress and consequence, delivering an intense and stimulating listen."
