About this item

A cross-cutting label exploring the boundaries between different disciplines based on deep listening and music research, Modern Obscure Music return with "INRI (Industria Nacional Del Ruiddo Infinito)" by Dellarge.

Inspired by the scenic beauty of his studio's surroundings at Lake Pátzcuaro in Michoacan, Mexico; Alejandro Barba - aka Dellarge - delves deep into the depths of his artistic consciousness to craft a spiritual album that encapsulates the essence of the place. "Industria Nacional del Ruido Infinito" (National Industry of Infinite Noise) serves as a vessel for Dellarge's innermost self-expression and reflections on the potential of humanity. A mesmerizing blend of ambient, futurism and industrial sounds that transport listeners into a realm of mysticism and duality, and stands as a testament to Dellarge's artistic growth and his ability to transcend boundaries, offering listeners an immersive experience that connects them to his world.

Drawing inspiration from numerous sources, Dellarge found creative fuel in books such as 'El Arte de los Ruidos' by Luigi Russolo, 'Manifiestos y Textos Futuristas' by F.T. Marinetti, and science fiction classics including 'Congreso de Futurología' by Stanislaw Lem, 'Neuromancer' by William Gibson, and 'Dune' by Frank Herbert. Musically, he delved into the works of Coil, Michael Bundt, The Threshold Houseboys Choir, krautrock legends CAN and Popol Vuh, early Kraftwerk, Arthur Brown, Yello, Esquivel, The Residents, and Hector Lavoe for inspiration.

When asked about the creative process behind the album, Dellarge revealed a disciplined routine that involved immersing himself in the sounds, focusing on minute details that connected with the vivid world he envisioned. Ethereal tracks such as "Viento Androide" and "Viaje al Sol" offer a glimpse of a hopeful future, while darker compositions such as "Corpus de Sangre" and "Toro de Falaris", explore the wickedness and compassion within humanity. Each piece in the album represents a unique sonic journey.

"Viaje al Sol" is remixed by the sadly recently departed Juan Mendez aka Silent Servant alongside an exclusive reworking of "Cascabel" by the founder of Modern Obscure Music, Pedro Vian.
