“This recording is a deliberate act of listening as thinking, a ritual engagement with sound as sovereign and self articulating. It seeks no allegiance to narrative conventions nor does it ask the listener to tether meaning to fixed symbols. This is sound emancipated from the burden of story, a form of nonverbal divination that gestures toward the ineffable. It does not bow to the logic of colonizers or the formulas of consumerist industry. It is sound standing on its own feet, barefoot on ancestral soil.

At the core lies the concept of zero, not as absence but as the fertile void of infinite becoming. Zero is the resonant silence from which all frequencies arise and return, where hierarchy dissolves and one becomes both interpreter and contributor. This recording is less a composition and more a sonic commons: open, recursive and indeterminate. The intention is not to impose meaning but to generate space where meaning can emerge co-creatively. This project rests on a necessary inversion, to listen as an act of collective becoming.

It is what happens when we stop trying to master meaning and instead make space for it to rise on its own, free from human malice.”

Moki Mcfly is a music producer from Manila, Philippines. He is known for his atmospheric instrumental production which incorporates sound elements from nature and extensive use of jazz and tagalog samples. His fondness for acoustic sounds caused his music to come over as unusually nocturnal and warm. Space and texture remain not just formidable, but remarkably relevant aking inspiration from jazz, folk, and experimental as well as the whole canon of electronic music. He has been regarded as ambient, trip hop, some combination of the two, and expiremental. Moki Mcfly prefers to exercise an ideological distance from the genres he usually falls into, while maintaining an organic appreciation for all music forms and styles. His sound is a cross-pollination of the arcane and the futuristic, where he guides you through his train of thought, displacement and discourse. A swank noise of clever phrases, poetic flashcards and split references, even if they’re essentially about nothing in particular where narration is unspoken.
