Impermanence, the need for change: A fundamental philosophical issue is the main theme for MONO NO AWARE´s 7th album.
Thus,  Mujoo  adds new aspects to the established Mono sound: His archetypal raw and relentless rhythm n noise sound at times makes way for a variety of sonic textures, a genre-bending effort embracing more technoid and more experimental and atmospheric realms at the same time. And the choice of remixers couldn´t be more appropriate with HYPNOSKULL
and CUBIC NOMAD both being spearheads of just that sound that combines the rough and noisy foundations of industrial with highly energetic and addictive rhythm work.
Confronted with the imperative to let go, where words fail, sound works as a transmission for Leif Künzel: Coming to terms with the necessity of change to maintain a balance in life, he breaks with some of his own traditions.

The first is, he took just two years to produce the follow-up to the much-praised OTO. And then, he maintains
the noisy bedrock that the Mono sound is built upon (and which was boiled down to its essence on OTO), but plays with it freely.
Don´t be fooled by the hell-raising openers Isx 27 and In Endless Change classic agitating MONO NO AWARE bangers for sure, keep calm and work up a sweat. More of that sound is to be found in the 80 minutes of Mujoo (Is it Legal?)
but theres also that: The bumping, head-nodding rhythms of Sato or  Don´t Crash which will definitely make their way into industrial techno sets, the resonating, almost silently detached In a large room, Not my Party or In a Loop,
the vigorously pounding hardcore thumps of  A Good Decision, Oh Boy and, well, Pounding.
Fellow rhythm noise veteran HYPNOSKULL gives  It´s over the abrasive techno treatment; and Dark.Descent, label boss and industrial hardcore ringleader Maurice Pinkster aka CUBIC NOMAD infuses  Impulse Response with vicious snares and acid throbs.Nothing lasts forever, but Mono No Aware has secured a newfound balance and an artistic outlook to go places!
