about

Kyle Bruckmann returns to Already Dead with 'DUTY CYCLE | ACTIVE CULTURES,' a dual album and extension of last year's early-industrial/cold wave amalgamation 'USAGE'. Fans of that work will find much to enjoy here as the two albums (paired as two sides of a massive C80 cassette) are a riveting together of rust-pocked aesthetics beholden to multiple eras/genres/subcultures of celebratory oppositionality. A musicking of and for electronic bodies, their neural circuitry, and their microbiomes.
