Unsane Vision by CementO

Argentine-born and Chile-based producer CementO returns to Holiday Addict with Unsane Vision, a techno EP that functions as both sonic time capsule and personal manifesto. Composed largely of unreleased material dating back two decades, this release captures the raw tension of an era marked by global anxiety — filtered through distorted rhythms, relentless BPMs, and politically charged samples that still sting with relevance.

The sound design is unapologetically abrasive. Kick drums land like blunt-force trauma, wrapped in analog hiss and saturated beyond conventional thresholds. Synths don’t shimmer — they groan, corrode, and rupture across the stereo field, channeling a type of industrial decay that feels less like aesthetic choice and more like existential condition. CementO leans into chaos, rejecting polish in favor of emotional directness.

What unifies the EP is its refusal to compromise. Each track is built to provoke, with dense rhythmic programming that borders on hostile and textures that demand physical spaces — dark clubs, illegal warehouses, nowhere polite. George W. Bush-era speech fragments interspersed across the record don’t serve as commentary; they’re used like debris, embedded in the concrete mix of CementO’s sonic architecture.

Unsane Vision doesn’t seek approval — it asserts presence. It’s techno that snarls rather than seduces, grounded in a DIY ethos and a clear desire to sound different for every pair of ears. For listeners drawn to the genre’s confrontational edges, CementO delivers something bracing, unfiltered, and fiercely rooted in its own logic.
