"Borusiade lands on Dark Entries with their triumphant third LP, The Fall: A Series of Documented Experiences. The Romanian producer and DJ Miruna Boruzescu aka Borusiade has a track record of genre-bending releases on taste-making outlets like Cómeme, Pinkman, Cititrax, and of course Dark Entries, who unleashed their stunning 2020 sophomore album Fortunate Isolation. The Fall builds on Borusiade's mythos with its nine brooding and sophisticated tracks investigating the contours of memory and embodiment -- the 'fragile bridge between body and mind' in Borusiade's words. Moody basslines and melancholy synths wrestle with muscular rhythms; this is electronic body music for the heart and head. This is their most diaristic work to date, as well, chronicling love and loss through the gauze of reflection. Tracks like 'Save Me,' 'Recovery and Redemption,' and 'The Fall' sprung from painful breakups, periods which Borusiade identifies as some of their most creatively fruitful, finding themselves 'making the best music when I was brokenhearted.' There are odes to musical titans: the minimal electro producer Porn Darsteller is commemorated on 'Darsteller,' while industrial legends Genesis P-Orrige and Lady Jaye are honored on 'Pandrogyne.' The Fall comes housed in a sleeve using Gautier D'Agoty's 'Essai d'Anatomie,' an anatomical work from 1745, and also includes a lyric sheet. Trauma, from lost love to pandemic isolation, informs The Fall, situating itself as a gap that can only be accessed through sound and the creation of art."

UTON 013EP
|
On her Unterton debut, Their Specters, Borusiade offers four different takes on atmospheric, industrial electronics and chopped rhythms. "Forewarned Is Forearmed" sets the tone as a massive drum march, stomping forward between rolling snares, clanging metal percussion, and guttural drones, while evolution-themed "Common Ancestor" is a tribal head-nodder, with booming sustained kicks offset by overdriven snare brushes and fluttering synths. On "Doublethink" wailing synths and stuttering rhythms vie for dominance in a storm of off-kilter techno, while the mammoth, slow melodic closer "Atlas" moves to the pace of waves crashing and hypnotic, detuned, interwoven melodies.

CORR 044EP
|
Romanian born, and Berlin based, Borusiade (aka Miruna Boruzescu) makes her Correspondant debut in dazzlingly bleak fashion. With Feelings of Entropy EP the artist manages to channel a wealth of disparate sounds, referencing giallo disco, new wave longing and pitched-down ghetto techno amongst other dark and otherworldly tropes. All of the music on offer here possesses a slow and dark drive that purposes it for the dance floor, but also contain such a wealth of loss despair, and a perverse pathos that elevates them from simple dance music and move them in to a more artistic realm.

COMEME 031EP
|
Bucharest's Miruna Boruzescu aka Borusiade presents Jeopardy, following appearances on Radio Cómeme's Dreamcatcher show and at Berlin's queer landmark SchwuZ. "Spellbound (Surrender)" reveals a hallucinogenic drama of sensualities, sexualities, and emotional and physical bondage, like a score for a collaboration between Béla Tarr, John Carpenter, and Andrei Tarkovsky. "Haunted by Flashlights" incites an electronic trance before the techno epiphany of "Jeopardy"; "Rescue," a slow eruption of cosmogony and rebirth, precedes the enormous drums and synth arpeggios of "Dancer's Doom." Written and produced by Borusiade. Final touches assisted by Gregorio Gómez aka Gladkazuka and Matias Aguayo in The District Union, Berlin.
