Inspired in part by Hiroshi Hamasaki's and Chiaki J. Konaka's 'Texhnolyze', the record plays with the idea of false hopes of self-optimization.

Theonormals have achieved perfection in a more 'perfect' way than Shapes. They did not need to sacrifice anything. Having abandoned Texhnolyze technology, they ‘optimized‘ their genetic makeup. Through this method, they rendered themselves imperious to any physical damage by taking pain, sicknesses, and mental illnesses out of the equation.

Heaven is not the infinite paradise some have imagined it to be, because while it is a place of happiness and perfection, it is also a place completely devoid of sadness, which is, from whatever perspective you look at, a very essential part of everything human.

If you pay a minimum of 20 Euros you get individual shapes/versions of the album each signed with spectrographic signatures of your name and index. This is possible since we worked with probabilistic instruments and effects, providing distinguishable details for each export - telling a slightly different story of the album. It can take up to 2 weeks until we send it to you. Edition of 22.

Arigto is an experimental composition project formed by Noah Haußmann and Sebastian Stauß, based in Berlin and Leipzig.
