Song Recommendation: “Exit Democracy” by Sinemis (2025)

Stradling the gulf between the misty spectral modular synths of an act like Craven Faults and the big hard-hitting beats of classic IDM bangers from the likes of Black Dog, Sinemis’s Farewell is an almost unbelievably compelling listen. “Exit Democracy” is the longest track by over a minute compared to its kin but I think still stands as a good representation of the record overall and a heart-pounding exercise in how layering ethereal elements until their breaking point can create an unstoppable, mind-altering groove.
