Released earlier this month, ‘No Future 4 M.O.F.Os‘ saw Lyon-raised, now Montreal-embedded producer Kizi 404 navigate the electro slipstream with radical precision.
Marking his fourth solo outing, the release doesn’t so much whisper sweet nothings in your ear as it carves them into your neural interface. Self-released but ideologically loaded, the record reads like a glitchy manifesto scrawled across the walls. Kizi 404 crafts a warped reflection of our hyperreality, where cyborg populists flirt with rave romanticism, and electro becomes both shield and sword.
Across five tracks, Kizi refines his taste for mutant hybrids, ghetto-tech spine, liquid DnB limbs, acid-drenched synapses, his sound a modular rebellion that drips with digital malaise and clubland militancy. Enlisting Waner Nucléaire for a remix of ‘Underwater Godrays’, pushing tectonics deeper into the pressure zones where sonar echoes turn spiritual and everything you trusted becomes fluid.
The standout is opening track ‘Balayette Laser’. A sonic Molotov, crash-landing at 158 BPM in a no man’s land of spectral bass, acid and rapid-fire cowbell. Skewered arpeggios, tense, flickering – recall forgotten constellations swirling above a dancefloor. Vocals flit in like pirate radio signals from a submerged resistance. The revolution may not be televised, but it sure as hell has a sick beat.
‘No Future 4 M.O.F.Os’’ was scheduled for release 16 April. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
