Unfiltered Carbon

I didn’t set out to make an album. I set out to survive some long, stressful nights.

I tend to take on many projects at one time, often too many and this album came from a place I don’t talk about much anxiety and isolation. I made Tired Monster during a period of serious burnout, physically, creatively, and emotionally. Not the loud kind, but the slow, creeping kind that wears you down until you barely recognize yourself. In between albums, and starting a record label, the music started as a way to process that. It’s the sound of pushing forward when you’re running on fumes, of feeling heavy but still restless. The “monster” in the title isn’t a villain, it’s the tired version of yourself that refuses to give up, even when you kind of want to.

This album is my most personal work yet. It blends my love for cinematic sound design with the darker beat driven textures I’ve always gravitated toward. You’ll hear ambient decay, distorted rhythms, and moments of tension and release that mirror how I was feeling while making it.

There’s no single genre here it’s my hybrid of cinematic electronic storytelling, crafted in isolation and shaped by late nights; the need to process life without words.I hope these tracks feel like a mirror, or maybe a companion.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed but couldn’t slow down… this one’s for you.

Thanks for listening to what I couldn't put into words.

And a special thanks to Maria Forsberg for allowing me to use her wonderful piece of art.

“Tired Monster by Voidscan might just be my favorite electronic album I've ever heard. It carries all the drive & energy to keep me engaged & moving, but it's just laden throughout with this deep sombre tone. Never have a felt the duel urges to cry & dance so strongly.” - MetalMinder|Steve

“Tired Monster, by voidscanmusic.com, is incredibly well-produced electronica that straddles a line between danceable & dark. There's a somber thread that runs underneath this one, a perfect soundtrack for the current moment.” -Ed Herbers
