istatik.exe (NB-2016#014 C-Side Feb 2016)

Right after I made my first contact mic, I thought about taping it into a stapler to utilize the mechanical sounds that it makes when I grip on it and flip it around. I recorded it immediately because the sound was interesting. It sounded like an industrial sound with tight glitches of distorted mechanical clicks and twists. I feel the darkness of this record. It has a mood that i haven't felt from my previous albums. I felt like I was in the right track of expressing something that is totally ugly and boring. Theme: boredom, darkness, loneliness, social malfunction, mental illness.

In Trash, We Trust / NB-2016#015 C-Side / Feb 2016

In Trash, We Trust is the 15th catalog of Hibernation. I recorded this using my handmade sequencer and my trusty D.A.W. Its a harsh noise layered with FX driven noises.
The album cover is a piece of art the I made from torn pieces of book pages that i found interesting and it eventually fitted the concept of the whole record.
Theme: social boredom, confusion, mental retardation and illness.
Official release of this album was in February 2016 (Noisebath PH / Corporate Ghosts Records).
