Jean Lorenzo, known as Silent EM, fell into his solo project by chance. He had played guitar and bass in post-punk and punk bands but in 2010 he found, upon his transition to a new city, that he could create music singularly with synthesizers and drum machines. His songs explore themes of disillusion, disappointment with religious views, war and lost love utopias. The influence of 1980s French coldwave and post-punk is apparent in his craft.

Disko Obscura proudly presents Ortrotasce’s self-titled debut album. A binary selection of the artist’s prolific work, “Ortrotasce” is a two-headed beast. Side A opens with the brilliant “World Un Related”, underscored by anxious synths, driving bassline, and spectral vocals. “New System” follows suit with throbbing drums and a woeful guitar rhythm, while the instrumentals “Diffuse” and “Shatter” feature heavy cold wave synths and dizzying sequences. Side B turns feral headlined by “Losing Mind,” an EBM behemoth driven by loaded industrial percussion and savage singing/shouting. The same severity surfaces in “The Body”, “Passion”, and “Expanding Room”, the latter a tenebrous instrumental marked by clever and infectious bass lines and rhythms.

Listen and order here.
