"somewhere between psychedelia, techno, electroacoustics, and post-rock, suicide prevention is the product of a 14 year old pact of music or death. like a dual with the past, the record was motivated by an ineffable will to live. it is made up of a series of propositions for reasons to act. though musically eclectic, the album meticulously weaves a coherent symbolic gesture. filled with rich textures, warm and noisy acoustic recordings, complex synthetic algorithms, and haunting nostalgic melodies, this album addresses the organic sensibility of the listener. alexander wilson (01ek) is an interdiciplinary artist, musician, theatre director, and theorist based in montreal, canada. he composes electro-acoustic music, produces experimental videos, interactive media and architectural installations, and directs physical theatrical events in immersive environments."
