Applez91 - Hydrostatic Kill Pressure [HNW Netlabel - 2025]

Hydrostatic Kill Pressure is created around manipulated water recordings. The nearly twenty-minute walled noise track is focused on a rewarding/ at point detailed mix of drilling, droning, and juddering texturing.

The release appears on the UK’s HNW Records, with the cover work (unsurprisingly) showing a large body of water. The release, which I’d guess you’d say is an EP, can be found here

Seemingly, the Applez91 project is from Italy- going from Discogs, it’s been active since 2020, with twelve releases to its name- but I suspect its back catalogue is larger than that. Apparently, quite a few/ most of the project releases utilise water as their source.

The single self-titled track comes in at nineteen minutes and forty-three seconds. The ‘wall’ is a taut, tense, and detailed mesh of a deep drilling bass purr, scuttling static grain, smaller jitterings, and the occasional off-pattern texture. Really, you can’t make out any of the original aquatic origins of the sources- and for me this ‘wall’s has a rather dusty/several-layer drill quality to it. The dense web of sound totally pulls you in, to lock on/ to investigate

If you dig taut & detailed ‘walling’, then Hydrostatic Kill Pressure will appeal. And as I’ve always enjoyed the use of water sounds in noise, I’ll most certainly be checking out more of Applez91 work.
