Sykophunk Productions presents Mask: Shadow, the original horror music soundtrack to the poetry book of the same name, also by Joseph VanBuren. This is the first in a trilogy of poetry books with soundtracks. We all wear various masks for different situations. It’s how we adapt and react to life. Wear a mask for too long, however, and it becomes difficult to remove. Especially if that mask has been forced upon you… Through dark ambient soundscapes and cinematic surrealism with an 80s/90s nostalgia, the tale of a tortured soul unfolds. In the aftermath of strange psychiatric and biogenetic experiments, this mask questions reality, laments the loss of truth, and perhaps even reveals apocalyptic prophecies.
