Purple Phase

//HYPER OPAL MANTIS, 2017//

“ Our original primal perception – vastly more abstract, emotional and sensual – makes us feel the world as an ambiguous realm we are part of, but not in control of. We exist in a complex network of interacting forces and enigmatic patterns; a matrix of overlapping desires. Reconnecting with this sensory perception and through it spreading love becomes an essential act of resistance.

Hyper Opal Mantis is a triptych on 3 states of desire, and the first long player of Kangding Ray for Stroboscopic Artefacts.

HYPER is the primal, sensual lust; OPAL is the emotional catharsis, a blissful desire for love; MANTIS, like the insect it refers to, is the destructive, fatal attraction.”

“Purple Phase" which Kangding Ray describes to THUMP as "the sound of your brain locked in a loop, going up and down on an Aeolian scale," confidently falls in the first state. Propelling forward at a slow, sensual pace, it lurks amid a smoke-filled atmosphere of spectral synths and a droning bassline that nestles itself in your gut. Are you turned on? Terrified? Or both?
