Pulse Tone "Qualia : individual instances of subjective, conscious experience"
The haunting melancholia coupled with drops of joy in Archaic Behavior,the aerial and vanishing riffs in Mirage like you're a cloud wanderer, Wait 'til Tomorrow have those electric complaints fusing with strings, Sakura's ending, dazzling and steady, Oh Sweet Solitude and the spacious echoes and wow I'm gonna need an essay on Damned Milray.
I'm geniuely happy the Villain decided some day that he wanted to make music. Favorite track: Damned Milray.

A This music is kinda like after you come in from the rain and your hair is soaked, when you get a few drops, like tears, stream down from your brow. The difference is the moment here echoes. Favorite track: Wait 'til Tomorrow.

about

Archaic Behaviour is by far the biggest and the most time consuming experiment under the alias of The Villain. Stealing from film noir of 40's, ripping documentary soundtracks of 50's, flirting with Soul and Jazz of 60's and imitating the best parts of psychedelia of 70's, it all goes down into eleven-track-long, vinyl infused trip through the landscapes filled with grain, crackle, wow and flutter. From black & white to technicolor and back, but still staying loyal to its origins, legacy and predecessors "Parallels" and "Keeper".

Started in february 2018, the project has involved over 50 individual tracks, which of 11 forms the final shape of "Archaic Behaviour". Few of those 50 tracks saw the daylight within "Nonsense" release and plenty has already found their new homes and forms in future projects and upcoming releases.

By listening, donating and spreading the word you can support this project and especially the future projects of mine and help them to happen. Thank you and enjoy!
