**Mark Solotroff’s** music and artwork explore urban landscapes, navigation through city environments, and human connection in an age of digital fragmentation. Alongside diverse collaborations with acts like Wrekmeister Harmonies, The Body, Indian, Consumer Electronics, and Brutal Truth, Solotroff is celebrating the release of *A Diagnosis of Distance*, a bass-heavy solo analog synth record which serves as an unsettling, immersive soundtrack for navigating emotional territories and metropolitan terrain. **Mortido** is the morose death ambient project from Chicago artist Omar Gonzalez (Civil Siege, Machismo, No Dreams, Rectal Hygienics, etc.). Recorded between 2022 and 2023, Mortido’s self-titled debut album synthesizes dark ambient isolation and heavy industrial soundscapes into immersive, cinematic textures. **Exhumed Corpse** is bleak/dark industrial sound constructed from minimal bass synths, audio test lab equipment, and tapes. Uncomfortably slow and low bass frequencies wave in and out of the audible spectrum alongside distant rhythmic metal clangs, bangs, and steam hisses. Rumors of power amps and subwoofers catching fire are true. For fans of NOTHING. **Black Triangle Badge** draws from audio sources both mutated and direct. His sonic palette is as unpredictable and eclectic as the nighttime city streets themselves, crafting soundtracks of unease that reflect a world increasingly plagued by fascism, ignorance, and toxic hate.
