Mahne Frame (pronounced mah-nay frame) brings his pan-pacific rave pop back home with a divergent-sounding EP on a new label with Berlins Monkeytown Records. The Australian musician and producer had spent the last four years developing his kitchen-sink electropunk aesthetic with his own 21 N FUN entity for ideas in Japan, where lyrics of disaffection were dragged through grainy bedroom productions echoing his big beat and post-industrial influences. Taut with repressed rage and isolation, those two EPs traced Frames travels, from a final show as touring drummer for avant-pop performer Kirin J Callinan in Tokyo to border closures that left him stranded and restless in the East Asian megacity. The results were 2019s Kiss My Ass, Death and 2020s Mad World, where the ambient gloom of the formers eulogy to Prodigys front man on RIP KEITH FLINT meets the bitter rumbling of the latters SOMETIMES I TRY NOT TO CARE (feat. Tohji).
