about

Digital Album is available in hi-res. CD in Digipak.

"Alter-Egoist" is a challanging and adventurous album by antennasia, electronica/dub/bass music group from Japan. The gigantic moray-eel in the universe appeared on the cover art (designed by La Mano Fria - a key person of modern vaporwave) should catch your eyes first.
Unlikely their former albums, vocalist san has composed, arraned and programmed most songs on this album instead of a trackmaker Nerve. Each songs reflect her imagination that is free, wild and sometimes even sacred, and there exist together conflicting elements such as chaos / cosmos, stillness / motion, light / darkness, experimental / pop with sprinkled sounds - layered vocals, electric noises, fragments of folk instruments and many languages etc.. You will never be dissapointed if you are a long-time antennasia fan, but this time, more close to the bass music, also the irreversible structure is seen in most compositions. The album includes a dub symphony "Crimson Soda", playful "134340" about the demotion of Pluto from 'planet', a serene ambient "Pandora", an industrial electronic track "-2000 degrees centigrade", a theatrical suite "Jam S. Pendelton", reconstructed broken-step "Golden Gate Switch", "oo0oo" that floats between orderliness and confusion, "Endless Precioud Bad Beat" ambient on a nervously twisted beat, "Cube" a new style of antennasian dub, "G.E.D.F. (n.t.g.)" an updated version of the title track of the EP released from Mezé Music in Detroit. "Alter-Egoist" is a new chapter of antennasia. Have a trip to a micro cosmos led by a galaxy moray-eel.

antennasia 4年ぶりとなるアルバム"Alter-Egoist"。まず、カヴァーを飾る宇宙空間に浮かぶ巨大なウツボに目を引かれるだろう。現 在のヴェイパーウェーヴ界の重要人物であるLa Mano Friaが手がけたこのアートワーク(ウツボの写真はsanによるもの)は未知への 入り口であり、アルバムを視覚化している。"Alter-Egoist"では、殆どの曲のコンポジション/トラック・メイキングを、ヴォーカルの sanが手がけており、その奔放なイマジネーションが音響化した、幾重ものヴォーカル・パート、電子音、民俗楽器、様々な言語など が散りばめられた、カオスとポップネス、静と動、光と闇といった相反する対局の要素/イメージが同居する作品となっている。前作 までのテイストを保ちつつも、よりベース・ミュージックの要素が増し、また、殆どの曲で、場面が不可逆的に変化し続ける構造が見 られる。ダブ・シンフォニー"Crimson Soda"、冥王星の惑星からの降格に材を取ったポップな"134340"、静謐なアンビエント・ト ラック"Pandora"、インダストリアル・エレクトロ"-2000°c"、シアトリカルな組曲"Jam S. Pendelton"、再構築ブロークン・ステッ プ”Golden Gate Switch"、違和感協調性浮遊トリップ"oo0oo"、ノリノリ不安ビート"Endless Precioud Bad Beat"、変形アストラ ガリプリシジョンビート"Cube"、デトロイトのMezéよりリリースされたEP収録曲のアップデートver. "G.E.D.F. (n.t.g.)"を収録。 "Alter-Egoist"はantennasiaのニュー・チャプター。ウツボの背に乗って、小宇宙を巡るトリップへ。
