Uboa and Kashya - Object Permanence (2016)

Added 2020-09-02 14:32:47 +0000 UTC

Here it is, an LP my friend Kashya (https://kashya.bandcamp.com/) worked on slowly over several years (2015-2018), before losing the original mix files when switching computer and DAW. It's a somber, cold, cyberpunk-themed release that consists of 6 songs in about an hour. A lot of the lyrics (what few there are) were written before I had come out. They are mostly about bodies, technology, crushes, alienation. I was just coming out of the closet as this was being made. We wanted to finish it, but we were both too busy doing other things to fix it up, so I present to you an "alpha" of a LP that likely will never be finished. Some of the songs I might redo for future releases, but I think just putting this out there as is is fine.

Tracklist:

1. Network Node (22:38)

2. Ø (10:23)

3. Viral Load (5:20)

4. Neuroplasticity (8:38)

5. The Colourless Idea (1:29)

6. Decision Tree (11:23)

I don't consider this release canon, being unfinished.

No higher quality than Mp3 available, there were the only files I found left.

But it certainly holds up. Who knows what this being finished could of become...
