Komok’s New Single #ENT3R#7HE#V01D# Is a Mind-Bending Electronic Odyssey
Gearing up for the release of his debut album Protopia, London-based Italian composer Alessandro Inglima recently unleashed #ENT3R#7HE#V01D#, a dizzying sonic ride of acid house, psychedelic electronica, and even some video game whimsy. Performing under the moniker Komok, Alessandro's latest single is bold and slightly unpredictable, giving it an intoxicating tension that pulls you into its whirlwind of sound.
Playing out like a brief aural adventure, the tune allows itself time to build and expand. Eventually erupting into a vibrant synth-led explosion, #ENT3R#7HE#V01D# is just a pure burst of energy from start to finish. It ventures into sonic territories that feel entirely its own and, ultimately, that is the power of Komok's work.
Originally a bass player, Alessandro's musical path has now led him to experimenting with sound effects and synthesisers. It's an approach that has shaped not just Komok's sound, but the artist's electronic storytelling, with experience scoring films, documentaries, theatre pieces, and live performances.
Taking me slightly out of my usual listening patterns, #ENT3R#7HE#V01D# has swept me up and into its hypnotic current in the best possible way. And, if I may add, his other releases aren't too shabby either! Here's to many more!
