“THE SOUNDS OF THE APOCALYPSE”-
Selected by Calumecs from Tokyo-
based collective “dosing”. Part
3 / THE AFTERMATH
Selected by Calumecs from 「dosing」
I have divided my playlist into four sections of five songs each… Together we will explore four different themes of the Apocalypse in chronological order. The themes are titled: Warning Signs, The Fall, The Aftermath and Beyond The Grave. By doing this I hope you can experience the music in a new light and treat the playlist and the subsections within it as a soundtrack to a narrative.
I hope you can enjoy my playlist. Introducing my take on “The sounds of the apocalypse…”
PART 3 / THE AFTERMATH
Princess Sika (GIL Remix) / Meuko!
Meuko!
There’s no song that paints the picture of the aftermath of a massive traumatic worldwide disaster than this. It sounds like the sound of a million souls forced to flee to the afterlife in one single moment. Well done Meuko! Meuko! and GIL for making it harder for me to sleep at night.
Ashwagandha / Celestial Trax
When I was scrolling through songs I stumbled across this and the mood it gave me resonated immediately with what I had been imagining. A world totally barren and empty, devoid from life. The damage was already done and any survivors remaining are still in shock. The visual element in this song is incredible. Just close your eyes and listen! Speechless…
God Level / ROSHIMA & Bsterthegawd
I wanted to keep a little bit of variation in genres for this playlist and I came across this song which is full of mood but also has slaying 808 bass. In my mind I’m imagining something like this: After the initial shock survivors have come to terms with their reality and are mourning the past. They’re broken and lost.
did pt.1 (ft. MURVSAKI) / stei
This song is a collaboration between stei from my crew and the trackmaker for most of KOHH’s best songs, such as Living Legend. It fit perfectly into my tale! This is what I imagine: This is the beginning of an exploration through this new world. Searching ruins for survivors, food and maybe a new home.
Wasteland / electric candy sand
I thought I should include one song of my own and Wasteland is a song that I was really strongly “visualizing” while I made it. Like this playlist I hope that my music can be “visualized” more than just “heard.” In the context of this playlist I see it like this: People have adapted to this new world and some have taken advantage of it already, seizing power and control from the ruins.
