Mad Vantage - Minutiae LP
Acclaimed composer and instrumentalist SOLUNE is set to release MINUTIAE., the debut full-length album from her genre-defying project Mad Vantage. A searing blend of progressive metal, nu-jazz, and electronic textures, the record positions SOLUNE as a formidable new voice in heavy music; bursting unapologetically into the scene with meticulous grooves, lush harmony, and fierce creative intent.
Fusing the rhythmic precision of jazz with the weight of distortion, double-kick pedals, and synthesizers, MINUTIAE. presents a sonic landscape shaped by years of artistic evolution. Recorded live in the studio with her band, the album thrives on real-time interplay-delivering polyrhythmic intensity without losing its human pulse.
“After numerous collaborative releases and a plethora of recorded work as a side person over the last 10 years, MINUTIAE. is the very first record I am putting out as a solo artist, ” says SOLUNE. “I was hoping to make a big statement when I finally launched my solo career, and I feel like this album exemplifies this. I’m here to ‘make noise’, and I hope that people will listen.”
Exploring themes of erosion and strength-both internal and external, MINUTIAE. reflects on personal and societal change in the age of digital transformation. It’s music of catharsis, self-definition, and defiant vulnerability.
“This record is a culmination of years of growth and artistic evolution,” says SOLUNE. “In an industry where misconceptions about women persist (particularly in both heavy and jazz music), I wanted to stay true to the integrity of my craft and bring together parts of my world I’m deeply passionate and unapologetic about: intricate and precise rhythms, feminism, distortion, bright pink fashion, and loud, groove-driven instrumental music.” - Art As Catharsis
