Mute. – The Ever Present Absence: Second Verse

“The Ever Present Absence” tells of how a life — shaped over years — can be irrevocably altered in just days. A brief moment defined by raw human emotion, reshaping all that came before and all that follows. What remains is the quiet violence of knowing that something is lost forever — and always will be.

In sorrow we fought…

“The Burden” descends with weight and urgency, it speaks to the unbearable emotional gravity that follows denial: A source of great worry and stress — something too painful to carry, yet impossible to set down.

Here, the sound shifts — from fragile ambience to relentless impact. The rhythms hit harder, no longer holding back. Haunting melodic elements twist into harsh motifs; vocals break through, distressed, distorted, uncomfortably close. This is the moment of rupture, of emotional exposure without protection. The intensity is the reflection of a time that redefines everything that came before and everything that will follow.

In The Burden, there is no escape — only confrontation.

Cubic Nomad - Planet X

A silent wanderer drifts through the void—unseen, yet inevitable. Its gravity reaches across the abyss, shifting tides, unravelling the fragile order of Earth. The sky darkens, the ground fractures, and fire erupts from within. Oceans rise to swallow cities; winds reshape continents in mere hours.

As the celestial intruder moves on, the scars remain—ash blankets the land, the air grows thin, and time itself bends to a new rhythm. The world will never be the same. The ancients warned us. The cycle begins again.

This ominous vision sets the tone for Planet X, Cubic Nomad’s fourth full-length album in his darker, rhythm-driven discography. Across 14 tracks, he sculpts a sonic landscape shaped by the darkest variants of hardcore and exploratory electronics — always delivered with compositional discipline, emotional weight, and conceptual clarity. Planet X is a full commitment to his signature strain of structured chaos.

Several tracks build on the foundation laid by the Unearthly Stranger EP, carrying forward its hypnotic sci-fi tribalism, while new material expands the scope: punishing kicks, contorted beats, eerie atmospheres, and melodies that emerge like traces of light in a collapsing orbit.

Key collaborations inject further vitality: Genetic Prophecy, with Dep Affect, pushes percussive programming to a breaking point — a twitching mass of sound and tension. In The Void Of Space, with synapscape, matches slow-motion propulsion with Tim Kniep’s unmistakable vocal performance. Darkening Clouds sees Emma Susanne return, her treated vocals woven into a slower, gritty pulse — both unsettling and magnetic. Sensation of the Mind transforms the anthemic trance-hybrid of the original Embryonic collaboration into something more restrained, more aligned with the bleak cohesion of the album’s arc. And finally, Captain Walker — the latest and arguably most powerful instalment in the long-running Walker series — fuses Cubic Nomad with his own alter ego The Relic, crafting a self-collaboration of brutal precision and imaginative twists. A culmination, and a personal milestone.

For all its stylistic variety, Planet X stands out for its coherence: each track feeds into the next with gravitational pull — from crushing beats to atmospheric collapses, from self-referential space drama to the slow creep of existential dread.

Planet X is not a place, but a presence — one that alters everything in its wake.

Mute. – The Ever Present Absence: First Verse

“The Ever Present Absence” tells of how a life — shaped over years — can be irrevocably altered in just days. A brief moment defined by raw human emotion, reshaping all that came before and all that follows. What remains is the quiet violence of knowing that something is lost forever — and always will be.

In silence we wandered…

“The Denial” begins a tale of how a single moment can fracture the continuity of a life: It captures the initial stage of a life-altering event — a psychological process in which painful truths are not yet admitted into consciousness.

The music moves like shockwaves beneath the surface: blurred, cinematic, lost in abstraction. Legato strings stretch across still air, gently disoriented by tremors of synth. Muffled, indecipherable voices echo in the distance — as though submerged in memory, or held back by the mind itself. This is the sonic equivalent of emotional paralysis: the space between awareness and admission, a moment when everything is still intact — until it isn’t.

The Denial does not offer clarity. It offers the slow unravelling of the illusion that nothing has changed.
