Hiperbolic/Metabolic is a new collection of chamber music compositions that aim to explore altered states of listening. The pieces are meant to be experienced as places to rest and contemplate, with a focus on the sensory experience of the listener.
Pieces to hear with the closed eyes and the opened mind.
The title of the collection wants to suggest a connection between perception and the physical body, and an intimate link between the two.
A sensual connexion.
It contains samplers of people at work, strange choirs, old symphonies, kids singing, broken machines and incidents of the street life.
Totally free of any kind of AI stuff.

Walter Campbellin the bandcamp site of Muteant:
Phenomenal, dynamic, satisfying release. While different, listening to it gives me some of the euphoric isolationism I get listening to one of my all-time favorite records, Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works Volume II. Each track stands on their own, but better experienced together.Favorite track: LITTLE SPASM.

I don't get all of that, but I do like the last bit; like Queen's 'No synthesizers" of ages ago, records in the future should say "no AI". Listening to these seven pieces, it is unclear what The Auroch does, but my best guess would be that it is a mixture of acoustic sounds, instruments (violin, guitar or other string instruments) and lots of sampling. And with sampling, I am thinking of old-school sampling, sticking sounds on a keyboard

and playing around with them. The result is a mash-up of weirdly uncontrolled musical madness with a level of controlled sampling, bringing order to chaos. The one thing this is closest to is the world of electro-acoustic music, but with the level of wackiness thrown in. And please understand that the word 'wild' is not the same as chaos; it's a wild ride of highly varied sounds combined, which gains new context through editing and mixing. Think musique concrète in the hands of someone who isn't too concerned with the exact rules of composition. A bit poppy, lots of weirdness, a bit of seriousness (tricky to avoid that) and lovely stuff all around. Thirty minutes of refined bliss.
