A sound object burning melancholy with the violence of a catastrophe. There is little respite, yet so much urgency. This is manifested by a powerful beat, confusing rhythms, strange sounds, a brutal distortion or not soothing soundscapes. Because the motor is emotion. Ultimately,&nbsp;<strong>Moaan Exis<\/strong>&nbsp;desires to sublimate sound into fury, rage and sweat. Mathieu: vox, programming, synth, percussions. Xavier: drum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ESA:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ESA<\/strong>&nbsp;was born in 2002 in order to cross the threshold from one genre of extreme music to another. Engineer of this electronic inferno, Jamie Blacker, up until this point had been writing music semi-professionally for years in the UK Black \/ Death metal circle, touring and recording alongside some of the genres elite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having decided to experiment in dark electronics,&nbsp;<strong>ESA<\/strong>\u2019s heavy, rhythmic style has since become rooted at the forefront of the harsh industrial \/ power electronics scene, predominantly owing to slews of powerful and engaging live shows all over the globe and 10 well received, critically acclaimed albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taking influences initially from rhythmical noise acts, Blacker\u2019s sound structures have developed and integrated countless influences from the broad spectrum of alternative and extreme music. The tone of&nbsp;<strong>ESA<\/strong>&nbsp;is harsh and oppressive, dripping with destructive and corroded grooves whilst still emanating deep melody and a strong sense of spirituality.&nbsp;<strong>ESA<\/strong>\u2019s compositions are undoubtedly threatening and offensive floor stomping club tunes but also twist and churn enough to reward more attentive listening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A punk power industrial sparring match between two bands,\u00a0ESA\u00a0&amp;\u00a0Moaan Exis\u00a0yields a crushing new two-track EP,\u00a0Spit &amp; Spite\u00a0courtesy of\u00a0Negative Gain Productions.
