On, Like A Sickness, ION examines topics of insanity, occult wisdom, and spiritual preservation over the six tracks while exploring unique sonic landscapes that question traditional methods of sensing the world.
According to ION, music serves as a ceremonial medium that ties listeners to their ancestors and an earlier conception of nature. Having experience in both spiritual practice and experimental music performance, he employs sound as a holy art, fusing contemporary artistic expression with the pristine beauty of nature.
With Like A Sickness, ION blends layers of esoteric symbology with ritualistic soundscapes to create an immersive, multidisciplinary experience. With its embrace of the chaos and wisdom of old traditions, each track acts as a gateway to a distinct spiritual environment.
Throughout the collection of tracks, it’s clear that this particular soundtrack is the beginning of a new era for ION. Listeners witness his multidisciplinary technique incorporating music with in-depth ritualistic and spiritual undertones. Like A Sickness, is more than just an EP; it’s a bold declaration of ION’s artistic evolution.
On the release, ION shares, “This EP is monumental for me. Like A Sickness, is the initiatory body of work in my transmutation as an artist. It represents a shift towards ritualistic, more intimate expressions of the occult. Through these songs, I aim to reawaken the purity and sincerity of early spiritual devotion, and this transformation will only continue to unfold”.
Like A Sickness, represents a significant turning point in ION’s development, establishing his position as a producer of immersive spirituality as well as music and stretching the limits of his imagination in a fresh, remarkably original, and thrilling way.
