The structure of “Guillotine” amplifies [its] tension through gradual expansion. Dense, repetitive electronic layers establish a steady pulse, while dark textures deepen the atmosphere of looming consequence. Positioned between experimental electronic, synthwave, and indie electronic, the track balances rhythmic clarity with cinematic scope, reinforcing its conceptual weight. The tension isn't resolved—it's sustained. >> R+

Takes the best elements of electronic music and fuses them with modern industrial influences; the result is a highly attractive rhythm that manages to captivate the listener almost immediately, enveloping them in a nocturnal and energetic atmosphere that unfolds smoothly throughout the entire musical composition. >> Oleada

An intense and dark track that cuts straight through with its explosive and emotional energy. >> Freim TV

Guillotine / Time Doesn't Exist (Single)

"Guillotine" calls out the hyper-elite, oligarchical class that is intent on wrecking the world around us in realtime with a warning that their time could be up at any moment, as people grow more fed up with their ongoing and escalating degradation of our society.

Meanwhile, B-side "Time doesn't exist, yet it controls us anyway." is an extended exploration in building illusory structure from ever-shifting chaos before collapsing back into itself.

Attempted Cultural Figure (Maxi-Single)

"Attempted Cultural Figure" hints at the story of someone who makes a go at becoming a known personality in the digital age and ultimately finds success by leaning toward a toxic right wing ideology. In addition to the single, there is a radio edit and an extended version that expands the sonic landscape of the original.

Meanwhile, B-side "Comes a Time" serves as a call to action to stand against the darkness on the rise in the world before it's too late.
