In Sara Taigher’s animated video, DJ Rupture’s freewheeling, exploratory sounds spatter around a deep-sea underworld. Erratic bleeps, jittery horns, and warbled and haunting murmurs stream throughout this futuristic narrative. It is an imaginative, eerie space where the land and sea diverge and cities sit afloat and beneath a vacuous and dismal post- apocalyptic universe. Heavy, dub-step arrangements intermingle with reedy snares and atmospheric sonic waves that tale alongside this propagandistic short. Overall, Rupture’s electronic productions are illustrated remarkably in this evocative, urban tale that makes you wonder about the inevitable. Peel your eyes to this rarefied piece filled with magnetic soundscapes and provocative illustrations.
