Barba Negra, Budapest, 2024.11.02.

Starset:

The show was very much hyped as the most impressive show of Starset yet, and having been to two of the previous ones (that being all the ones they had in Hungary), I had my expectations set high.

It was a noticeably different one. To me, 6 fan displays and 2 lazers aren't really the pinnacle of impressive, I think the hype was a bit too much in that regard. Other than that though, the show was very well put together.

The lore department worked extra hard on this one, being the "end of an era", it was really nice to see some of the oldest plot points of the story finally come full circle. We had a lore section between every song, and while I have always been one to enjoy and follow the story, I can see how that would break the flow for some people.

Songs and performance were of the expected quality. It's Starset, I love them, it was great. Every single time I'm surprised how different Dustin sounds live compared to the recordings, not at all in a bad way though. Always appreciated Starset for playing a selection of all their previous songs, much more so than other bands, and this show was no different. Subtle reimagining of older songs also keeps them fresh, even for longer time listeners. At the same time the messages of the new songs are more relevant than ever, taking a very clear stance on some issues. Stances I think many people can get behind.

Speaking of listeners, there was a surprising number of Starset first-timers! Might be related to the feeling that there was a little less movement in the crowd than I expected, maybe not. I was lucky enough to be between two people who matched my vibe exactly, so no complaints.

Barba Negra (my beloved) good as ever, there were some audio balance issues at the beginning, but Dustin was also wearing a mask, so I can forgive them. The rest was also great.

Ultimately very satisfied with the experience, very interested to see where the band goes next, with a new album on the horizon (pun intended).

P.S. Fuck the New East.

Here’s a track created as a theme for a character of mine with a dark past. After a life-altering event, he was brought back from the brink and transformed into something dangerous. The music carries the raw, gritty energy of his new reality, blending heavy guitar, strings, and unsettling vibes to reflect the power and torment he now carries. © Nexus 2025

[cyntrix]

‘strange device’ is an ambitious and immersive journey into the darker corners of the human experience. Created by the duo cyntrix and the pilot, the album weaves together a powerful blend of distorted guitars, heavy bass, breakcore drums, and choral-style vocals to create a moody and sinister soundscape. Thematically, it delves into complex emotional realms, exploring trauma, grief, and existential dread alongside deeper themes of generational curses, moral scrupulosity, and the psychological toll of CPTSD, anxiety, and depression.

At the heart of strange device lies the title track, a cinematic rock piece that balances the album’s extremes of sound and emotion. Featuring a dynamic range of distorted guitars, synth solos, and obscure sci-fi-inspired effects, this song embodies the duo’s signature blend of intricate sound design and emotionally charged storytelling. It draws listeners into a world where personal suffering is inextricably linked to larger existential questions, offering moments of both despair and resilience.

The album represents a significant creative leap for cyntrix and the pilot. Pushing themselves beyond the electronic realm, they embraced a wider sonic palette, incorporating electric guitars, six-string bass, drum kits, and even field recordings to achieve a massive and atmospheric wall of sound. These experimental techniques were designed to reflect the album's colossal themes—nihilism, spiritual psychosis, wrath, death, and the decay of both body and mind.

In ‘strange device’, the duo confronts the agony of being born into a world darkened by the weight of past generations. Through this sonic exploration, they pose a singular, poignant question: when surrounded by the darkness, do you surrender and darken with it, or do you rise to become a beacon of light?

Album Review: Earthside - Let The Truth Speak (Music Theories Recordings/Mascot Label Group)

Earthside’s ambition was out of this world when it came to creating this release, and it seems likely that they’re not returning to this planet anytime soon.

Arches National Park

The park's arches and other formations were created over millions of years by erosion and weathering. Rainwater dissolves carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, creating carbonic acid, which reacts with the rock and breaks it down.

Y’know what would be nice?

If that the series ended off with Knuckles returning home to Sonic, Tails and Maddie, and (after the rapid fire of questions and scolding for running away which is most likely prone to happen lol) begins to tell them about how he realised he isn’t living with them just to fulfil a vow of protecting the M.E anymore, but rather because he finally found his home

He explains how he finally understands the definition of “home” and what makes one

And if it’s anywhere he is most at home (since losing his tribe), it’s in the small town of Green Hills, with the Wachowski family, because with them is where his place of belonging lies…they are his home, and always were from the moment they took him in

Yeah, I think that would be nice
