Sphere Vol. 3

by ıo

supported by

Hypnotic Techno Circle A semester has passed since the previous release and we started to miss IO Records' sound. Happily, it is back with not 1, not 2, not 3, but 14 dynamic tracks, for our greatest pleasure! The aesthetic is more experimental than ever, yet our nostalgia was filled by certain pieces 🙂❤️ Favorite track: Ray of Cosm.

about

A sheen, shaped, silver smooth
ringing go hues bounced against
the sizzle of shaking
as the steady siren sings
a tune to sway all sands
into dunes and dynamics delivered.

The wheel and roll of night air moon
dew'd backward, the underside is as dry as a chime,
while the uppermost is a rained as the tallest cave
that stretches the feel of inside
as if the costae verae were elastics,
and the sternum were a bell.

One that might only sound out
the metal in the veins,
like metal under water,
flowing, fell fathoms far
along an elliptical path,
drilling out the cache of concepts,
corroded and clean,
shing as beams build out bones
of sound from the dark kick
scratching out strange signs
we cannot deny.

And we know.
We who have heard.
And felt the raying cosm
building on scintilance
a vast canopy that drops
upon our heads a breaking force
to set us a'dream,
that no tone of suspended contact
between you and those ahead of you in line,
one place, one minute away
from a beta phase,
a sudden turn,
a slow new,
a change,
a chance,
to come careening slowly
into air that smells of lavender,
in a land of yellow grass
and black stones.
