Intoxicating ambient soundscapes, intelligent polyrhythmic structures and microscopic snippets result in an artists impression of an imaginary city, complemented with environmental samples, radio signals, stunning sub basses and crunching drones, performed on a wide dynamic range.
The noun 'Artefact' has diverse meanings - concerning this release it stands for things made or used by mankind, as urban environments are.
An artefact can also be an undesired alteration in data, introduced by a technique and/or technology. while listening carefully to this outstanding blend of idm and electronica, secreted cracks and disruptions will be visible - artefacts within an artefact.

The idea that people were servants of the gods was a theme that ran through Aztec mythology. Humans had the responsibility of keeping the gods fed - otherwise, disaster could strike at any time. The food of the gods was a precious substance found in human blood. The need to satisfy the gods, especially the sun god, gave rise to a related theme: human sacrifice.
From the onset, the listener is immersed into an inner vision of beauty, atrocity. darkness, emotional soundscapes, ambient spheres and pounding rhythmic patterns. Overall the effect is that of fusing meditative tribal atmospheres with dark voids. Ceremonial deep tones merge with dark ambient industrial music - which is all kept together by tribalistic electronic grooves and acoustic percussion. Once again Tzolk'in achieves musical, technical and spiritual success without sacrificing critical artistic engagement with apocalyptic motifs. Tonatiuh is an idiosyncratic, ritualistic vision of post-industrial divination. Translating the atmosphere of an ancient mythic age for the listener of today - while perfectly using today's technology.
