AUS!Funkt's (feat. Маша) latest creation, "Whispering and Shouting” emerges as a mesmerizing fusion of electro-post punk and austere-disco. Within the avant-garde confines of their neo-laboratory, the collective artfully dissects musical genres, tossing their fragments into the air to craft a kaleidoscope of auditory wonders.
In a deliberate rejection of lyrical and musical excess, AUS!Funkt seamlessly marries the rhythmic allure of electronic music with the rebellious vigor of post-punk. The spoken and sung lyrics, marked by a blend of stark realism and hypnotic repetition, serve as a mental provocateur, enticing contemplation amidst the captivating beats.
As electronic pulses weave a seductive spell, inviting the body to break free from its torpor, the guitar emits bursts of noise, creating ethereal clouds, while the bass anchors the experience with its melodic undertones.
‘Whispering and Shouting’ is an assault on the senses, an unsettling yet entrancing disco journey that not only moves the feet but also unsettles the mind, transforming the dance floor into a realm of both liberation and introspection.
