Premiere: Strapontin – Eunuque

In the small village, whispers quickly became truth, ancient legends became scripture. Many stories had passed through the generations about the old man and those who’d come before him; he’d been painted as maleficent, as the strange offspring of evil powers. The anger that these rumours caused began to boil up inside him, but he found nowhere to direct it, instead he bottled it up and continued to keep himself to himself. Here, people thought these tall tales gospel, and so he ostracised himself, scorned by stories beyond his control. Perhaps he’d simply meant to exist alone.

Recorded over three years (then sadly delayed for another year due to Covid) the next release from the Invisible Inc camp is finally seeing the light of day — and it’s well worth the wait. Coming courtesy of Belgian multi-disciplinary artist Strapontin, who follows releases on Hard Fist, Optimo Digital Dance Force and tablon, the four tracks (backed by a remix from the ever-dependable Sascha Funke) see him depart from the dancefloor, instead exploring fuzzy rhythms and sleazy EBM and punk influences.
