about

"Cryptic Logic" is a remarkable electronic album by the seasoned artists Mike Petruna and Derrick Stembridge, representing a significant milestone in their collaborative journey. The album skillfully combines Mike's innovative beats with Derrick's emotionally resonant synths and strings, making each track a unique chapter in an enthralling sonic odyssey that redefines the electronic music landscape.

The album opens with "Ephemeral View," setting the tone for exploring transient experiences and memories with its ethereal beats and airy textures. This is followed by "Understand Forgive and Remain," delving into the complexities of the human spirit through introspective melodies and rhythmic intricacies.

"Plastique View" offers a contrasting texture with its edgier, more synthetic sounds, reflecting the artificial aspects of our modern environment. "Labyrinth of the Mind" continues this theme, exploring the intricate pathways of human thought.

The title track, "Cryptic Logic," stands out as a central piece, showcasing the collaborative genius of Mike and Derrick, blending mystery with musical mastery. "Obeisance" follows, offering a solemn and respectful tone, acknowledging their musical influences and inspirations.

"False Idols" changes the mood, challenging listeners to distinguish between reality and illusion with hypnotic beats and haunting melodies. "Hypnosis" deepens this exploration, inducing a trance-like state through rhythmic patterns and ethereal sounds.

"Eons" extends the reflective theme of the album, presenting a sense of timelessness and endurance. "Resonance in the Void" transforms solitude into a meditation on life's fleeting nature, while "Moments In Space" offers an expansive, cosmic sound.

The album concludes with "The Ones We Lost," a personal and introspective track reflecting feelings of loss and solitude. This track brings the album to a poignant and profound close, paying homage to the lasting influence and memories of Mike's and Derrick's mothers.

"Cryptic Logic" is more than just an album; it is an auditory journey, a tapestry of sound and emotion that resonates deeply with listeners, leaving a lasting impression long after the final note fades.
