Holy Water Over Sons

A dark, fractured descent into glitch-heavy IDM. Gone is the Victorian whimsy, replaced by heavy bass, ghostly vocal chops, and a restless nocturnal energy.

It's like Daedelus turned off all the lights and let the machines start dreaming about ghosts.

A heavy, nocturnal restlessness that feels both deeply personal and technologically cold.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the rhythm in 'Haunted' seems to disintegrate into static before reforming into a heavy, lurching pulse.
The transition between the two parts of 'Standing In My Own Way' where the melodic tension finally breaks into a dense wall of sound.
The sudden, jarring brevity of 'NoOneSeemsToCare' acting as a sharp emotional reset in the middle of the record.
