about

Styx is an apocalyptic track for apocalyptic times. With all the news about climate change, the sixth mass extinction, huge earthquakes in the Caribbean, protests everywhere, huge wildfires, the Wuhan Coronavirus, the doomsday clock moving 100 seconds to midnight, the threat of World War 3, and an extremely divisive sociopolitical climate, I thought it'd be appropriate to release this track now. It kinda does feel like the end is near, huh?

But Styx doesn't just reflect the current state of the world. It was created in the early hours December 9, 2018, and it heralds me finally leaving that very depressed state of mind back then. It conveys my journey through social withdrawal, thoughts of suicide, anger... I'm unsure what made me feel this way, but...I did.

Styx is interesting in that it is one of a few to actually be what I want it to be; most of my tracks start out with me playing sounds randomly, then carrying it on from there if I like something, but the beginning of this track was exactly what I wanted from the beginning for once! I'm also satisfied with my results of fiddling around with the drum sounds and the "electric guitar" you hear at 2:40; these sound really good to me!

When I listened to this track, that first thing that came to my mind were images of a fiery hellscape and me riding a raft on a river of magma deep underground. Hence, I named this track Styx. It reflects the hell I went through in my brain, after all, so Styx seemed very appropriate.

Hatansion
by DJ Omnimaga

DJ Omnimaga brilliantly captured the charm of old-school happy hardcore vibes in this album, especially in Rave Maelstrom 2022 which reminds me of early 2000s rave music! MOULE

Critical Mass
by Spidercat

I LOVE the juxtaposition of animals in a spaceship expedition gone hilariously wrong, and I also love how its cover art features a badger in a pink spacesuit! MOULE

Spirits – Single
by Schall und Stille

An absolutely enchanting, beautifully-sung and composed song that I heard in Fedivision 2023. The opening melodies and later guitar riffs are stunning! Definitely worth a listen! MOULE
