MUTEK 2024 | Amnesia Scanner & Freeka Tet, Brutal and Refined

by Alain Brunet

In the context of the MTelus 1 series, it was an opportunity to take this nasty slap entitled STROBE.RIP, a concept by Finnish tandem Amnesia Scanner and artist Freeka Tet. For anyone interested in the rough and violent sounds of the digital nebula, the first hour of Saturday August 24 is a must.

At the confluence of avant-metal, indus rock, dark ambient, electronic noise, synth-punk and techno, this head-on encounter takes place on stage in a thick haze, punctuated by flashes of light and sparse, rare images. You can’t see much, and you’re kept in the visual mystery of what’s happening on stage. Instead, you have to listen, take in the sound, contemplate the storm without asking for more. We’ll ask questions later! And here we are: this extraordinary storm is accompanied by an intense search for processed voices and sounds, tossed violently into this pit of synthesized felines. Magnificent carnage! These post-industrial landscapes are fascinating and visceral, and we take great pleasure in letting ourselves be jostled by them. And then pick out the meticulously designed details and finely chiseled ornamentation.
