Ville Haimala & Martti Kalliala of the experimental music duo Amnesia Scanner & regular collaborator Freeka Tet join NM to discuss AS HOAX (PAN, 2024) — both the making-of and the world into which the dual record project was released.
This is Part 1 of 2. It focuses on the Amnesia + Freeka project and its innovations within the post-streaming subcultural industrial complex.
Part 2 (coming soon) expands to Ville & Freeka’s activity outside of Amnesia Scanner, including recent work with artists Anne Imhof and The Weekend.
Recorded at the end of 2024, the conversation presciently channels the noise, distortion, and attentional overload that has quickly come to characterize the info-sphere of 2025.
