Enxin/Onyx, the duo of Nicky Mao/Hiro Kone and Tot Onyx (formerly Group A), joins Other People with their debut album In Rupture, capturing the same mesmerizing energy for which their live sets have become known. In Rupture is not painless but in rupture lies possibility. The elasticity of this time pitching listeners across unknown terrain, revealing new potentialities, eclipsing static being. Whether in breach, collision, shimmer or severance, Enxin/Onyx explores these as occasions for transformation. Peeling back the layers through discord and harmony, exciting the inversion of expectation, towing the listener to depths and back up again to illuminate the senses. At times metallic and feral, at others murky and sharp, each song serves as an offering for all that is in rupture; body, spirit, land, ecosystem. The opening track "A Void" calls to mind some mutation in its mechanical ecstasy, but for what purpose remains unknown. Even in the near moments of stillness, "Needle Pierces the Threshold" breathes a forceful disquietude. Tommi's vocals pulling the listener down into some subterranean madness, to unravel upwards from all sides, flooding the once parched landscape. In "Embers Kiss the Eye," all of time emerges in one moment, compelling the subject's gaze towards a new horizon. The album follows its subjects through exile, exhumation and discovery. Through this process plates shift, fissures are revealed and what once appeared to be indomitable absolutes crack, pointing towards their inevitable collapse. To be in rupture is regeneration, to be in rupture is to return.
