Tired Monster
NEW ALBUM 8/01/25
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"Love your sound Voidscan! Rubicon has been getting heavy spinnage recently.
Makes me want to f--k up some robots!" -Blakebenda“Lush washes of melodic synths with danceable beats.
Atmospheric spirals of electronics and deep bass. F-----g cool.” - Negative Agent“Death Trap is a song that may make you want to go Fight some shirtless dudes in a random bar basement after it closes
and then make a bunch of soap. Recommend checking it out, for sure. 🔥👌” -DizzyPound“This record's feels like an intersection of like recent era NIN, The Prodigy & the Powerman 5000 concept album Tonight The Stars Revolt!
I put this record on and could immediately see the glitchy grainy digital landscape in my mind.” - Kim Tillman
