Lord Dubious Bangers and soundscapes from a distopian near-future. Favorite track: Angle of Re-Entry.

cherub420 Another sci-fi experience that deserves to be on screen. Rarely does an audio experience paint such vivid visual landscapes. My hope is that Kode9 is recognized in the film scoring industry. This is all very moving material! Favorite track: Angle of Re-Entry.

Flex Blur Comme d'habitude, Kode9 nous emmène dans un futur parallèle, entre polyrythmes et sons électriques, où l'humain semble avoir peu d'emprise. Renversant. Favorite track: Lagrange Point.

about

‘Escapology’ - Kode9's first album since 2015's ‘Nothing’ – is the first audio document of a wider project, Astro-Darien, ongoing since last year. His most ambitious work yet as a multi-disciplinary artist, ‘Escapology’ is the soundtrack album to the sonic fiction Astro-Darien, which will be released in October on Hyperdub’s sub-label Flatlines.

The music reconfigures Astro-Darien's tense, off-world atmospheres into slices of high definition, asymmetric club rhythms, woven through thrilling sound design and vertiginous sonics.

‘Escapology’ is just one entry point into of the Astro-Darien universe, which had begun to surface in 2021 as a two-week audiovisual installation on the main dance floor at club space Corsica Studios in South London, and as a multi-channel diffusion on the 50 speaker Acousmonium at the invitation of INA-GRM in Paris, the institution founded in 1951 by the musique concrète pioneer Pierre Schaeffer, composer Pierre Henry and the engineer Jacques Poullin.
