Macro/micro's "Clicks" is a dark and sardonic trip of IDM/Experimental Electronic Music that examines our algorithmically induced social media dystopia Comprised of 3 movements (ambient intro, percussive forward main section, and melodic breakdown), this is for fans of Nine Inch Nails/Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross/How To Destroy Angels, Coil, Lorn, Jon Hopkins, Ben Frost, etc. Here's a short essay providing more conceptual context: "The utopian promise of social media connecting the globe on the basis of common understanding of human worth was a noble and enchanting proposition. If “sunlight is the best disinfectant”, then having more engagement should have allowed the truth to rise to the top. But we’re painfully realizing that the more appropriate quote describing our situation is “a lie can run half-way around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes”. As long as algorithms don’t perfectly align with the ideals of human flourishing, consumers and creators alike will fall deeper into the feedback loop of audience capture until we reach critical mass, causing our civil societies to erupt, then collapse. There is still time to course correct, but we must learn from our mistakes before we become totally distracted by the looming revolution in A.I." Let me know what you think! :) https://www.macromicromusic.com https://www.instagram.com/macro_micro/more

Polly
While experimenting on the modular, a familiar note from Nirvana's "Polly" caught my attention. At first, I couldn't place the song, but its significance was clear. As I delved deeper and uncovered its powerful backstory, the weight of its narrative gripped me. This rendition deviates from my norm, offering a darker take on an already profound track. I hope you appreciate this unique perspective.more

Night Or Day
The track recalls the feeling of those who isolate themselves from the stupid duties of the daily routine by letting themselves be distracted by the white noise of the city and then abandoning themselves in a suspended space/time, rediscovering a deep pleasure for themselves, or sharing it with a special person by making love, and ignoring whether it is night or day outside, or if the existence outside is dark, or if we are returning from a bad day. Style Disorder is uprooted from superficial trends and cultures. The electronic music project, which follows an evolutionary path of more than twenty years, is a melting pot of sensations, intuitions and experiments, fruit of passion and curiosity, which transmits emotions into the depths of the human being.more
