That might be a house record. It might be a bunch of <a href=\"https:\/\/thesoftpinktruth.bandcamp.com\/album\/why-do-the-heathen-rage\">black metal covers<\/a>. Or, in the case of <em>Shall We Go On Sinning So That Grace May Increase?<\/em>, it could be a shockingly beautiful and optimistic meditation on the rise of global fascism.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"ejz0tzd\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\"><em>Shall We Go On<\/em> is a subtler record than Daniel\u2019s previous solo efforts. It trades the distortion and house beats of previous material for something hypnotic and healing. While there are plenty of heavily manipulated field recordings and samples, as you\u2019d find on a Matmos record, they err towards a more organic and ambient texture than Daniel\u2019s other projects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The first track, \u201cShall,\u201d sets the stage with some unsettling dissonant drones, fussy soundscapes, and a vocal chant that\u2019s teetering dangerously on the edge of the uncanny valley. It\u2019s an embodiment of what we\u2019re leaving behind as the album kicks into gear with the minimal new-age thump of \u201cWe.\u201d A muted four-on-the-floor kick backs clanking percussion, wind sweeps, female vocal runs, and a piano playing peekaboo. The song gradually gathers momentum, as the arrangement becomes busier and reaches for the clouds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">\u201cGo\u201d follows the chilled-out dancefloor excursion of \u201cWe\u201d with a call to prayer, before leading into the ocean-front ambiance of \u201cOn,\u201d with its ghostly choir of vocals, glitchy piano, and gently plucked synths.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">These are all buildup, however, to what is arguably the album\u2019s centerpiece, \u201cSinning.\u201d Abstract saxophone blasts dance with bells and vibraphones as another simple four-on-the-floor kick injects the jam with undeniable groove.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">I chose that word \u201cjam,\u201d intentionally, too. Where previous Soft Pink Truth records and most of Matmos\u2019 catalog are built primarily from samples, <em>Shall We Go On\u2026<\/em> leans heavily on live instrumentation and musicians bouncing ideas off each other in real time. Where <em>Do You Party? <\/em>Feels meticulous; <em>Shall We Go On\u2026<\/em> feels spontaneous. It gets caught up in its own celebration of human creativity and the power of art to heal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">\u201cSo\u201d is the comedown after the ecstatic celebration of \u201cSinning,\u201d with the saxophones serving as our gateway to the back half of the album, which, like the rest of it, is a seamless mix. Their simple two-note drone becomes a recurring motif that other instruments build on top of, from the piano pedal that anchors the ambient chaos of \u201cThat,\u201d to the jazzy explosion of \u201cGrace,\u201d that erupts from what sounds suspiciously like a car alarm having a nervous breakdown.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">\u201cMay Increase\u201d spends its four-plus-minute runtime disassembling everything that \u201cThat\u201d built up. All the chaos, all the noise, until it finally ends with a deep exhale.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup
