Epidemic Mind by Vladimír Hirsch

Conceptual album. 2007. Vladimír Hirsch – composition, all instruments, electronics, programming, mix, Kenji Siratori – lyrics, voice. Album in cosmogonic wide open space, but replete of dense and compressed atmosphere, microtonality and intense insight into amorphic harmonic structures. The parallel of vertically and horizontally organized chaotic atonal melodic elements contrasting with the slow, heavy rhythmical patterns and monotonic and emotionally plain expression of the spoken word of Japanese cyber-punk writer Kenji Siratori’s lyrics. The Japanese text is highly experimental, uncompromising, and intense, written in a style that not only breaks with tradition, but severs all cords with it, embracing the mayhem of the digital age.
