LAPSE by Evo Auxilium

LAPSE, is the spiritual successor to my 2018 album, These Simulations.

On LAPSE, I envisioned a post-apocalyptic world where Mother Nature, represented as an awakened sentient force, had taken control of futuristic human technology and artificial intelligence in order to cull the Earth of humans and hunt down any remaining survivors through the use of autopiloted mechs and other sinister machines. My way of representing the clash between technology (controlled by Mother Nature) and humanity (desperately trying to survive) was through the use of intentionally clashing sound textures.

One day, a few years back, I was overtaken with this vision of human structures being "reclaimed" by Nature's radiant grasp, and this is the album that resulted from that. It's worth noting: most of these songs were started around the time of the 2020 pandemic, so that was most certainly an influential factor as well.

burning the midnight coal
lapsing a generational escape
she will reclaim what is hers.
