Solution or diagnostics? Dread is inarticulate, but anxiety, the tone of our anthropocene, is detailed out to an extreme degree, and then even more so. That focus is applicable to WETWARE SOLUTIONS’ ECOANXIETY EP, in its tooled and calibrated sound design applied to a climate consciousness question: What to do after the tipping point is realized?
An EP of ethereal hydraulics, positioned between post-club and post-human, animated with an auto-tuned swan song drifting up from the gravity well. Jams equally violent and beautiful, like a climate-mutated storm. EP text states “A GREAT RIFT IN THE SKY REVEALS A PARADISE WHICH, BY NATURE OR DESIGN, DEMANDS A SACRIFICE.” Yet sacrifice betrays an optimism in things making sense. Me? I’ll play this when the equation no longer balances.
