			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mitte Juni erscheint der zweite Longplayer des auf dunkle Elektronik und postindustrielle Klangwelten in den Randzonen des Songformats spezialisierten Duos Mission To The Sun. Das Duo besteht aus dem von seiner anderen Combo Ritual Howls her bekannten und an digitaler wie analoger Elektronik versierten Chris Samuels und dem Lyriker und Sänger Kirill Slavin (Delien, Fluxion A/D), der Titeltrack ist bereits als Single erhältlich. &#8220;Sophia Oscillations&#8221; knüpft<a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/sophiaoscillations.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-35860" title="sophiaoscillations" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/sophiaoscillations.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" /></a><span id="more-35858"></span></p>
<p>musikalisch wie textlich an das vor rund zwei Jahren erschienene Debüt &#8220;Cleansed by Fire&#8221; an und zeichnet ein düsteres, mitunter endzeitliches Bild zwischenmenschlicher Nähe und Distanz. &#8220;Christopher Samuels’ synths, samples and rhythmic programming is accented by Kirill Slavin’s haunting vocal delivery as the listener receives intersperse audio recordings from the outer reaches of inner space&#8221;, heißt es beim Label, ferner: &#8220;With <em>Sophia Oscillations</em>, Mission to the Sun offers a deeply concerning and otherworldly listening experience that showcases the band&#8217;s skill at crafting intricate sonic landscapes.</p>
<p><a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Mission-To-The-Sun-by-Trevor-Naud-Paul-Biundo.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-35861" title="Mission To The Sun by Trevor Naud &amp; Paul Biundo" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Mission-To-The-Sun-by-Trevor-Naud-Paul-Biundo.jpg" alt="" width="468" height="312" /></a></p>
<p>The band masterfully blends organic vocal delivery and synthetic sounds to create songs as if they were bathed in alien noise artifacts. These compositions oscillate as transmissions from a journey towards a distant sun to be interpreted by the listener in their home world&#8221;. Das Album erscheint auf 500 schwarzen Scheiben und digital bei Felte.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Felte Records bringen Anfang April das erste Album der amerikanischen Band Mission To The Sun heraus, einem Duo bestehend aus dem auch bei Ritual Howls mitwirkenden Christoph Samuals (Synthies, Samples, Programming) und Kiril Slavin (Texte, Gesang). &#8220;Cleansed by Fire&#8221; enthält acht Tracks im Grenzbereich zwischen Synthie Wave und dystopisch eingefärbten Industrial-Einflüssen, die sich auch in den zum Teil von J.G. Ballard inspirierten Lyrics finden. Das Album erscheint digital und 350mal im semitransparenten, olivgrünen Vinyl.<a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/missiontothesun.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-24732" title="missiontothesun" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/missiontothesun.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" /></a><span id="more-24731"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;The Detroit-based duo creates an atmosphere of lamentation for a world left behind. Fragments of industrial noise and hypnotic synths fill Samuels&#8217; foreboding, alien terrain, and it&#8217;s in this vastness that Slavin’s voice mourns the drudgery of everyday life and the loss of universal consciousness. [...] Mission to the Sun beautifully captures an alien feeling: one ripe with despair and longing, one that doesn&#8217;t quite belong to this world or time. A slow, satisfying burn, Cleansed by Fire traverses the dystopian past and present, while moving toward the future.&#8221; (Felte)<a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Mission-to-the-Sun-by-Katie-Wilfong.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-24733" title="Mission to the Sun by Katie Wilfong" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Mission-to-the-Sun-by-Katie-Wilfong.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="900" /></a></p>
