View in your browser. Electro heavyweight Cellmod returns to form with commentary on social divide Cellmod turns his attention back to heavy electro on Structured Decay maxi-single, featuring MC blak, a Kay-S remix, and cinematic b-side Tampa, FL-based Cellmod returns to form whilst stretching his artistic abilities with dark, electro-glitch heater "Structured Decay." A pointed commentary on the decay of balance in society, the song is highlighted by the artist's own compelling and restrained vocal performance and anchored by grimy bass and wailing synthwork. Rhythmic variation throughout the song's structure reveals subtle experimentation while maintaining its bounding momentum. The Faultline Version sets the energy to high with additional vocals from blak, simultaneously keeping things looser using a spacey Rhodes piano line as the cherry on top. Kay-S's mix takes menacing and moody to another level, mangling the vocals for atmospherics while adding conspicuous drum & bass flourishes. Finally, on b-side "The Inevitable Pause," Cellmod demonstrates his broken beat production prowess using a slightly off-step shuffle that puts the listener at unease. The cinematic production features deliciously rich analog synths, a foreboding melody, and ominous, whispered vocals.   "The divide has always been the real threat. The engineered, structured decay of balance, the weaponization of identity, and the loss of self through the adoption of manufactured perspectives. It lives in the quiet moments that sit between distraction, misinformation, and sensationalism. A pattern we've seen many times before. The dismantling of community, expression, freedom to love, and the pursuit of personal happiness. Once you've seen it, you don't have to choose peace, but you can stop feeding the fire." - Cellmod Own Cellmod's next chapter and return to dark, heavy electro, Structured Decay on digital now.

Definitely one of the best albums of the year in the ‘music that wants to hurt the listener’ category.” - Anxious Musick Magazine   Apology Kink - Good Attention Voyeuristic lyrics are whispered red-hot next to Nile Rodgers-esque guitar over a debaucherous bed of machine drums and synths.
