The debut release of the German project AI-Zero (based by Maikko A., a
part of «Human Decay» and «mind.area» bands together with his
collaborator Flesh Wire) is a work in the genre, which the authors
called «cyberpop».
It's like a report from the future or from a parallel reality where all
the dire predictions of cyberpunk adepts have come true: hard but not
fast mechanical rhythm, often oddly broken (and in those moments
reminiscent whether about dubstep, whether on cult works of «Haujobb»),
is a dark and mesmerizing in its technological complexity atmosphere
like calculated by omnipotent artificial intelligence and, at the same
time, not devoid of ordinary human sentiment expressed in the regular
circulation to the melodies and ideas of electronic music of the 80s,
which seemed very futuristic in those early days and has not lost its
charm to this day.
