Atrax Morgue “Mechanic Asphyxia”, vinyl LP.
Classic re-issued to vinyl. Last copy going now.
- “I’ve got some plastic bags HERE… some plastic trash bags … I’m HERE in my home with some plastic bags… I play with them… I play with them on my head… I PLAY WITH THEM OVER MY HEAD OVER MY FUCKING HEAD!” - Atrax Morgue - “Plastic bags / Mechanic asphyxia”.
“Mechanic Asphyxia” was first published on cassette by Slaughter productions (SPT 97) in 1997. The release was then presented in a black vinyl snapcase, in an edition of 54 hand-numbered copies. Urashima’s edition is in new suit with enhanced sound. The visual presentation is classic Urashima black void, accompanied by the original Slaughter Production artwork on the front cover. The material on the album has been remastered to vinyl from the original tape, then pressed to 140 gram black vinyl with black labels. Packaging includes silk-screened artwork on black cardboard with plastic trash bag, plus a 12-page A5 booklet. All limited to 99 copies. The four tracks that make up the album are collected on face A. This is a positive curatorial decision by Urashima, as it allows full use of the entire work as one consistent and concecutive expression. Alas: Setting up the regular mortal and street Joe for a depressive deep-listening session without slab-change interruption.
Atrax Morgue was Slaughter Productions’ founder Marco Corbelli’s main project until he committed suicide by hanging in 2007. Corbelli always expressed a deep intimacy and obsessions with death - often copulated with sexuality.
- “My ideals and philosophy reflects that "we are constantly in a lackness”; we die and are re-born every moment. Death comes in a moment, in a moment that only faith knows. Death is the moment, the moment is death. Each breath we die, and next breath we are reborn. Each orgasm we die, and so we are reborn. Each sleep is like to die, and the awakening is to be reborn. I’m feeling always in a process, between life and death. I don’t feel the passing time. The past doesn’t exist; it’s only an echo of noise in my mind. The future is destroyed because I live for the moment and I never see any future in front of me. My life condition is like a reflex of energy. A corpse falling into energy’s power". - Marco Corbelli. The Supersonic death screams interview. ESOTERRA # 9 (USA), 2001.
- “i always eroticise death. Death is the highest expression of sexuality/sensuality. I like very much these artists like Witkin, Nitsch, Sade and especially Georges Bataille and Hans Bellmer (that was also very good friends…) They made fetish as a philosophy centred on the eternal life-death cycle, eros-thanatos. Their art is erotic, sadomasochistic, feticist and perverse. they had an hard fight against society that always condamn death and sexuality like disorder elements and charge them with taboos and prohibition. Bataille and Bellmer have decided to run ” a way without compromises, a stormy way, that one of the human being in his integrity without mutilations". At the basis they suppose that a man that do not try eroticism beyond the limits is alienated like the man that have not known the interior experience". - Marco Corbelli. Interview with ACEPHALE magazine (France), 1998.
The four compositions on “Mechanic Asphyxia” are minimal no-progression constructions with equilibrium death nerve. No malice, no hatred: Just lifeless and border-light diseased representations of death wishes and erotic asphyxiation. Instrumentation is scraped down to bare needs. We are talking: Repetitive synthesizers, spoken word, effects, feedback. Though minimal in composition and set-up, Atrax Morgue’s vision on “Mechanic Asphyxia” is rich in minuscule detail, texture and depth. Framed by deep and pulsating layered synthesizers at times creating beat frequencies, Atrax Morgue’s reverbed spoken word and guttural death throw exaltations guides us through an innermost self-predatory fetishistic landscape. Text recitations and vocal delivery are at times abrupted by piercing short feedbacks that vanish as quick as they manifested. “Mechanic Asphyxia” is as naked and vulnerable as an artist can get without being personal and cheesy. The end result as Urashima continues to us is of an extremely introspective, seductive and raw force. This is top mark death industrial / post-mortem electronics - beyond the realm of enough positive praise. Klassik void black..
