Music News: 11xxx27 Releases “Black Market” EP Via Infidel Bodies

748

11xxxx27 closed 2020 with the EP release “Black Market” via the limited edition cassette label he co-runs, Infidel Bodies. The Italian producer creates haunting soundscapes that reference genres like Techno, Industrial, and various elements of synth-pop. The artist’s newest work is a stark audio meditation on the dominating aspects of technology.

Seemingly hard-wired into our failing civilization, the artist points to technology’s all-pervasive logic. Operating across and through “social media, surveillance, data mining, fake news, etc.,” our reliance on it has created dangerous “blind spots” rife for engagement and deconstruction. But if 11xxx27 uses musical technology in the forms of “samplers, field recording, synthesizers, and sound processing,” it is to create unusual sound spaces echoing with dystopian possibility.

“Black Market” also features collaborations with fellow artists Mystics and LKSMN, as well as a remix of the opening cut “At the end of time (Pleasure)” by Mod21. Available as a limited edition cassette, Infidel Bodies’ artful packaging also includes “electronic trash & stickers.” Don’t miss the teaser video below…
