My Sadness by FTSM

FTSM’s bleak surrealism exudes from the latest single, My Sadness. A tempest of synths rush around the grounded techno percussion. The FTSM remix furthers this with massive hits at a lesser pace, as if to savor the intensity of the low end. Nootropic brings an emotional cyber techno flair, building large choirs tempered with acid bass lines. Hex Wolves' version focuses on repetitive kick patterns with a crescendo of granular noises, leaning heavily into the IDM techno world. Velocifer’s remix has solid upbeat techno funk, however, it still leans into the dark and contrasts with melancholy melodies.

FTSM explores deeper sound and visual design experiments that venture to the Schwarzwelt. Using found sound to blend into the coagulated analogue drones and drums, each build-up and break down are not uplifting the listener but casting them further into abyssal depths.
