Scavenger Royale (Extended Edition)

by Ugress

supported by

Sven Olsen I love the mood of this music....the rhythm and the tunes.

chronal ethereal, mysterious, and atmospheric, yet each track has an unmistakable groove and flow to it. an aural buffet of different tastes textures and instruments, this album is absurdly listenable in both style and substance. perhaps GMM's best work yet Favorite track: Rift 22.

There is a tree It consists of memories A thought is carefully climbing the tree But the branch it reaches Is not the branch it reached for The memories must protect themselves They are hunted by the thoughts Each memory has it's own story To protect these stories They camouflage The thought climbs And the memories glitch Remembrance Is to dance With ghosts

If you go down in the woods today You're sure of a big surprise If you go down in the woods today You'd better go in disguise For every bear that ever there was will gather there for certain Because today's the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic Every Teddy Bear who's been good is sure of a treat today There's lots of marvelous things to eat and wonderful games to play Beneath the trees where nobody sees They'll hide and seek as long as they please 'Cause that's the way the Teddy Bears have their picnic Picnic time for Teddy Bears The little Teddy Bears are having a lovely time today Watch them, catch them unawares And see them picnic on their holiday See them gaily gad about They love to play and shout They never have any cares At six o'clock their Mommies and Daddies Will take them home to bed Because they're tired little Teddy Bears If you go down in the woods today You're sure of a big surprise If you go down in the woods today You'd better go in disguise For every bear that ever there was will gather there for certain Because today's the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic

I'm feeling like a person in a painting My heart is like a frozen piece of art The gallery is open for forever The paintings always ready on display Look at me Look at this Look again Look at us (glitched, confused, modulated) I'm feeling like a person in a painting My heart is like a frozen piece of art The gallery is open for forever The painting always ready on display Look at me Look at this Look again Look at us You're just another person in a painting Your heart is just another piece of art The wall of art goes on and on forever All paintings always ready to be seen

about

Reanimating The Ruins Of The Mediapocalypse

The future has collapsed. You’re in a wild, vibrant and overgrown media landscape of fragmented ruins, drifting in and out of forgetful consciousness. Microscopic slices of memory stutter and dance in random flashes of recognition. The ruins are quietly sprouting, growing and grooving back to life. Something uncanny scavenge for shape.

“Scavenger Royale” is the 11th album by award-winning media-artist Ugress, the first in a brand new trilogy of releases where they musically and visually hyper-recycle our incessant collective media detritus. Through extensive processing and mutation of lost and forgotten media, culture and mythology, the artist deconstructs themselves, sound, music, graphics and video down to the atomic level, then re-animates these floating particles of ideas, eras, styles and phenomena back into recursive phantoms of themselves.

The tracks infinitely verges on recognition. There is no core, there is always just another ghost within. You got the music, like a wound.

Extended Edition

This version has 8 extra tracks on top of the original 14 in the regular edition, for a total of 22. This extended edition contains an additional 4 bonus tracks previously unreleased, plus 4 instrumental versions of the original vocal tracks.

Continues with unintrusively placed dystopian sounds of previous albums, while also shinning some life on the ruins it speaks about, releasing dusty memories that only a partly hopeless partly hopeful wanderer would be interested diving into. goodone
