Music Is My Medicine

Making moves out of Ukraine, DJ Sacred is the project of Alex Yatsun.

An ex Doomshop Records affiliate whose debut release “Introduction to Dungeon Rap” on Natural Sciences ushers in a new movement in underground hip-hop with a sound pulled from war time machinery, rituals and ancient runes.

Split across three different aliases, and a host of collaborations (including MC Holocaust, Rita Keen & Devilish Trio), the record draws on the sounds of Norwegian black ambient, DJ Sound, Immortal Lowlifes and old school dungeon synth. Anti-establishment campaigns which are morphed and screwed into a sixteen track record that spans lo-slung hip hop, doom electronics and nightmare breaks. It’s the sound of a new tormented world. A guttural vision of social media decay, celebrity status and virtual simulations. An introduction to the new wave of darkness.

Crafting mystery around himself, Spencer Clark is a musician who draws inspiration from his travels and dreams to create an original sound. Starting out as one half of the noisey punk rock duo The Skaters alongside fellow electronic producer James Ferraro, Clark now releases music under his own name and monikers as such as Monopoly Child and Typhonian Highlife, the latter of which has given us his most recent album, The World of Shells. The third instalment in a series of records on the KRAAK label, The World of Shells is a wacky tapestry of sounds that draws from Clark’s travels through Hollywood, Hanging Rock, Australia, and The Ear of Dionysus in Sicily: the occult, ’80s pop sonics, field recordings, DMT-soaked exotica, guttural animal sounds, bubbling tides, sci-fi aquatics; as entertaining as it is bizarre.

Unconstrained by location or genre, each Choice Mix spotlights a unique artist from the global underground whose style is pushing music forward.
