A cold, confrontational EBM release that welds human tissue to machine logic. FM basslines grind with surgical precision while crushing, jarring drums impose a world of control and submission. Mechanical, relentless, and deeply physical.

Ortrotasce comes to Dark Entries with Dispatches from Solitude, their latest LP. For over a decade, Nic Hamersly has been using the Ortotrasce (pronounced: or-tro-task) moniker to unleash brooding-yet-propulsive darkwave anthems upon the world. Hamersly’s work explores the intersection between industrial and synth pop, drawing a line from the sounds of the past to the present. Recorded during the Covid and post-Covid era, Dispatches from Solitude brings 8 tracks of tightly wrought synth-pop exploring grief, romance, and our strange world – which just keeps getting stranger. The cover art was designed by Hamersly, and the record includes a postcard with notes. Dispatches from Solitude will thrill fans of classic industrial-laced wave bands like Hard Corps, Fad Gadget, and SPK. Ortrotasce is an EBM / old-school-pop-industrial side project of Nic Hamersly from Portland, Oregon. Involved with both analog and digital electronics. I cannot be restricted by physical releases. Here I will deliver online exclusive tracks.
