From the rain-soaked corridors of Greater Manchester emerges DEAFDEAFDEAF, a voice not of clarity but of rupture—post-punk transfigured into haze, shoegaze dissolved into feedback-lit prayer. And it is said their sound carries the weight of ancestral echoes, as though the city itself speaks through amplifiers left too long in the storm. Entwined in distortion and reverberation, they stand within the lineage of Mancunian noise, yet break from it—becoming something unbound, something still unfolding.
As it is written in the margins of reception, they are “a marker for the Next Next Wave,” where sound abandons restraint and becomes confrontation, intensity revealed through its own excess. In their dynamics—quiet collapse into overwhelming storm—there is a language of thresholds, where silence is only the prelude to rupture, and noise becomes revelation.
And from another current, drawn through the nocturnal circuits of Vienna, arises enns—the union of Kenji Araki and YBsole, forming a dual presence within the shifting architectures of club sound. Their work is shaped from the afterimage of 2010s internet-pop and experimental club transmissions, bent into forms of longing and fractured memory.
It is said their performances are not merely concerts, but emotional wanderings through the dark: where voices emerge like distant signals, and bodies move through uncertainty together. In this shared drift—lost, yet not alone—their sound becomes a liturgy of night navigation, where vulnerability and rhythm are inseparable, and every beat is a reminder of presence within disappearance.
