about the record

Durban-based gqom futurists Phelimuncasi continue unpicking their musical seams on this borderless statement, teaming up with Metal Preyers to venture further into the desolate unknown. The group met up in Nyege Nyege's Kampala studio in 2023, where they spent three days engineering a sequence of tracks that turned their respective sounds inside out, stretching urgent vocals over mutating backdrops of time-stretched electronic drums, saturated noise, and unstable synths.

The album follows 2022's critically acclaimed Ama Gogela, an impeccably engineered overload of twitchy, dance floor-focused hybrid club experiments that allied the trio with many of the scene's most important beat makers. Hackett, meanwhile, was last seen breathing eccentricity and high drama into surrealist folk tales and vintage synth music on the psychedelic Shadow Swamps. While the divergent pairing might be unexpected, it's rich with revelation. Both Metal Preyers and Phelimuncasi wander far outside their comfort zones, with the Durban trio's prominent words and cadences booming over Metal Preyers' marshy productions like cryptic transmissions from the far future. Needless to say, there's nothing else like this.
