AWITW - ‘Panacea’ Album Out Now!

AWITW's new album 'Panacea' is now out through Petite Victory Collective. Here are some words from our man about this new release: 

"It's a bit as if I was ashamed to introduce this album, 
whereas I started this project almost two years ago taking fun in it. 
If Im ashamed it's because it reminds me a period of my life that is both difficult, and somewhere that I always try to get closer, the addictions of all kinds, this absence of borders, and the fact of sometimes wallow in the dark. 

The sample of the movie "Requiem for a Dream" in track n°2 is not randomly chosen, in this album it is subject without complexes of my addictive behavior, not only to drugs or excess but for me always pushing the boundaries further, to test them, to the point of finding myself near to death several times. This absence of a living environment, this need to push everything further. It's creepy yes, this album is dark and creepy. But it feels good to me not to hide from it. 

This quest for the ideal in destruction I found that the album title "Panacea" illustrated it well. And the sample used in track n°6 comes from the end of this period, a long psychiatric hospitalisation. 

But it was also a tribute to the free parties that I spend some weekends during the free techno movement in France in the early 2000s. I would have spent unforgettable moments, this album could still be simply nostalgia. Moreover track n°3 includes a sample from the anime soundtrack "Ghost In The Shell", which has alone represents this period of my life. 

"Panacea" comes from a track of the same title name, on the psychedelic trance "Pondou Fever" Peyote Records compilation, discovered in the same period and on which my first attack of hallucinatory paranoia were triggered. From that precise moment, in summer 2002 to be exact, a door opened and never closed, music took up all the space in my brain, its language reached me, and its power has provided and still provides me with hard sensations never felt anywhere else." 

Don’t be a stranger.
