A1G0.RHYTHMS is a six-track exploration of our complex relationship with the digital universe. Taking inspiration from the word “algorithms" and breaking it down into “algo” (Spanish for “something”) and “rhythms”, Eterno Scroll expresses that technology is not an external force but a rhythmic pulse shaping our human experience. A1G0.RHYTHMS illustrates a world where Technology is as natural as a heartbeat and as synthetic as circuitry. Blending genres—Dutch Hardcore, Chicago Footwerk, Electronic, and Dance—Eterno Scroll invites listeners to explore the codependence and clashes between being one with tech and being one with human nature.
Introducing the narrative with lyrics oscillating between “HTTP” and “FTP,” the bilingual 404 Apologies is a darkly comedic take on the constant errors and misunderstandings between tech and humans, such as the internet not working and other broken connections. The machine is the one to apologize to the human for the inconvenience while dreaming of possible harmonious moments when both are working and connected with aligned purposes and roles that are neither too big nor too small.
Playful yet biting, If (New) {Fangled} captures the endless chase for “new” – new gadgets, new trends, new realities, new beings. Pulsing synths and fractured beats underscore lyrics that glamorize and satirize our obsession with novelty. “I only wanna feel those new big feels, no big deal if nothing was ever really real.” captures both the rush and emptiness of fleeting digital excitement.
Salting the Hash shifts the mood to a haunting tone with glitchy, ethereal synths layered beneath hypnotic vocals that loop and fragment, asking, “Have you ever had a dream...?”. The track plays on the digital security concept of “salting,” questioning whether our dreams and identities remain secure and how we traumatically glitch when allowed to dream genuinely and openly. Inspired by a vintage meme of a child on a TV show stumbling over his words and thoughts, now known as the "Have you ever had a dream, kid" meme.
Frustration turns into hypnotic grooves in You Never Respond >:( an anthem of unrequited digital love. Layers of beats crescendo as the chants, “Zone, zone, zone” capture the endless waiting game of being left-on-read. If you are not in the shared present, you do not exist
Hot Widow Boomer dives into the cyclical clashes between sociological and technological generations. References to Flipper Zeros and digital gatekeeping highlight the digital prowess of younger generations while poking fun at the Boomer figure whose most prevalent stereotype is a lacking fluency in tech use. A funky, bass-heavy track with a mocking bite, Hot Widow Boomer embraces irony while delivering a solemn rhythm.
A1G0.RHYTHMS’ final track is Compassionate & Common, a meditative closer that urges a return to simplicity and kindness. Repeated bilingual lines like “com, páz, passionate, compass, passionate” build a mantra-like atmosphere over subtle beats, warm guitar tones, and nuclear bomb-like distortions. It calls for equal, empathetic relationships between machines and organic life. Nostalgic reflections of the past are always aided by memories and descriptions of the tech we shared that time and space with that will never be forgotten.
