"Delicate Madness" sees dark drones entwine with delicate strings to craft out a sound that's entirely ethereal. The track features on Taka's forthcoming debut Classical Punk And Echoes Under the Beauty.
Originally written and recorded in 2003, the now-completed album is entirely haunting. “I wasn’t actually thinking about sharing this album with anyone at the time," Taka said of the release. "It didn’t sound like MONO, so I left it as a trail to my envisioned world, as my personal collection.“
Classical Punk And Echoes Under the Beauty is set for release on 27 April.
