seb it's a certified ｖｉｂｅ Favorite track: EVERYTHING'S FINE.

Zigzagurl I love poetry in motion that transforms the imagination, like a book, to a choice of avenues that we enter at will - be it to relive a moment in reverence, to slip sweetly into a wish on a star -2 children drunk on wonder-, or even commit to dragging my self in front of a cracked out dreary mirror of days long fucking past but never, ever forgotten and scorning the ego mercilessly so that I can better love and understand me, you, and the moment; just the one of each. This E.P. takes me there. Favorite track: LANDMINE.

Murph Raw esotericism at its finest. Cue the soundtrack to your walks in the pounding rain. Favorite track: THE WATCHERS.

about

Technology was meant to be humanity’s tool to combat famine, disease, confusion, and to facilitate life, culture, and innovation. Instead, we’re mired in a digital labyrinth that few care to navigate or even solve. Perhaps it’s not a ruse and the matrices coded by keyboard maestros are a path to liberation, but without querying the constructs we cannot ruminate on their affectations on humanity.

VR SEX are audio/visual provocateurs who transpose the identifiers of death rock, synth punk, post-punk, ambient, and ethereal soundscapes into an audit on technology and its imprint on our collective psyche. Comprised of visionary mercenaries Noel Skum (Andrew Clinco of Drab Majesty), Z. Oro (Aaron Montaigne of Antioch Arrow/Heroin/DBC) on vocals and drums, and Mico Frost (Brian Tarney) on synths and electric bass.

Through PSRS or Procreation Simulation Reproduction Stimulation, humans can act on their hedonistic desires and not face the responsibilities and consequences that come with being an ill-prepared guardian. The future of our offspring will exist in virtual realms and population growth in turn will be stabilized. VR SEX is the cure to most societal ills.

Rather than being emblematic of influences, each song by VR SEX infuses a dire tension that cuts shimmer with fetid frequencies, never establishing an aural hierarchy or urgency. Instead, we’re lead into punchy capsules of “dour pop”; the balance of saccharine and sour so emblematic of the VR SEX hive mind.

DAIS Records releases VR SEX’s “Horseplay” EP on March 15, 2019 as a limited edition cassette, as well as all digital formats. Horseplay offers an extension of VR SEX in decay. Noel Skum helms all instruments for this home-recorded release, which was mixed to tape by engineer Mike Kriebel.

When Andrew Clinco (aka Deb Demure) was sitting in his Los Angeles bedroom, listening to the Cocteau Twins and mastering his first album, going back and forth inside the soundbooth bathroom conversion, he didn't expect the response he would receive in return. Later bring Alex Nicolaou (aka Mona D) aboard as the keyboardist, the duo have reinvigorated "The Underground Subculture" music genre with a new chapter in a reminiscence of past bands, but heralding a newly defined gantlet...!!!
