They all eventually dwell under an interval of vaporwave or what he would like to think of his own version of that middle earth, &lt;i&gt;sp3ct3rwave&lt;/i&gt; (it comes with &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/sp3ct3rwave?src=hash" target="_blank"&gt;its own hashtag&lt;/a&gt; if you are thinking of spreading the word).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, no other track on the record is as evil as the penultimate “Toll2” where multiple layers of malevolent wavelengths are piled up to build a cutthroat frequency. “Toll2” multiplies the solitude of Salem with a witch-house and up-to-“Rubber Johnny”-level-irritated Aphex Twin. Zyxz has identified his inspirations with “Δ&lt;i&gt;M&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;i&lt;/i&gt;−1 = −&lt;i&gt;α&lt;/i&gt;Σ&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt;=1&lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;D&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;i&lt;/i&gt;[&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt;][Σ&lt;i&gt;j&lt;/i&gt;∈C[&lt;i&gt;i&lt;/i&gt;]&lt;i&gt;F&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;ji&lt;/i&gt;[&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt; − 1] +&lt;i&gt;F&lt;/i&gt;ext&lt;i&gt;i&lt;/i&gt;[&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt;−1]]” if you grasp our meaning and that is where we got the AFX idea from.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seemingly the entire jarring lexicon attack he has introduced into his work is only a solemn attempt to solve his riddles using divide and conquer. Something we really need when it comes to nerve-zeniths like “Toll2”. If you enjoy other tunes on &lt;i&gt;Delta Mornings&lt;/i&gt; such as the post-internet chop-n-skrew R&amp;B of &lt;a href="https://soundcloud.com/zyxzy/johanna-now" target="_blank"&gt;“Johanna Now”&lt;/a&gt;, it is understandable. For us though, it is usually about the sound of everything coming to an end, or to be more precise, the sound of the aftermath and everything after. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="https://zyxz.bandcamp.com/releases" target="_blank"&gt;Delta Mornings&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; was released in September.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe style="border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1583998709/size=small/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/track=1992002346/transparent=true/" seamless&gt;&lt;a href="https://zyxz.bandcamp.com/album/delta-mornings" target="_blank"&gt;Delta Mornings by Zyxz&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
