#jungle #drumfunk #amenizm XHL UNIT & VIRUS VOICE - Freaks There’s an eerie yet exciting limbo in which rave culture has decayed enough to shift and meet alien sensibilities, becoming a medium for entirely different meanings. We could call it "doom jungle" though that label doesn’t quite reach the real core of the matter. Pushing the envelope again and again toward the true epicenter of the emotional spectrum’s abyss, it feels like reaching a dimension where boundaries collapse, and different sonic languages converge into something consistent and coherent, a portrait of the very bottom of the human soul. Stepping into FREAKS puts you exactly in that place: everything is rusty, raw, and muddy yet incredibly seductive. Both XHL UNIT and VIRUS VOICE (aka Luciano Lamanna) carry a vast range of influences behind their electronic arsenal, most of them drawn from the darkest and hardest fringes of the musical world. This is probably why it feels so natural and organic to lose your bearings and wonder whether you’re listening to a dark jungle record, an IDM-on-steroids compendium, an industrial post-punk mixtape, a noisy EBM DIY bootleg or perhaps all of these things at once. There's enough raw energy here to blast a forsaken warehouse dancefloor until the morning lights, but beyond the intricate, relentless drums and the cavernous hard sounds, there’s a melancholic halo too, seeping through the cracks in the walls and drawing you into a closer, more intimate listen. It is in this very dichotomy that the record finds its real power pulling you back again and again. This is not the first time the two heavy-sound maestros have worked together, as they have each contributed to the other’s tracks on various occasions, but this is their first collaborative LP as a duo. And if this first result is already this intense and this enticing, we can only hope for a long-lasting and prolific journey ahead. Label: Scuderia Released: 11.09.2026 FLAC 🎶
