#13 - vertigoaway ft. schizoscriptures - "Break This The Breaking Point 2"

Ever wish you could leave the human world and its uncomfortable vibes, global catastrophes, and inevitable desiccation of the flesh behind, and instead live in a video game where the pixels are permanently vibrant and there’s infinite space and time? “Break This The Breaking Point 2” hurls you into just such a fantasy wonderworld. At 7 and a half minutes long, the track submerges you in its blissful bitcrushed oblivion. Shivering screams rip out of every corner of the soundscape. Chipmunk vocals tear themselves into incoherent shreds in live-time. Drums rage and synths pulse with hypnotic consistency, every sound ricocheting off each other like a bunch of tiny bouncy balls trapped in an iron chamber.

The song spread heavily on TikTok (~10,000 videos across audios). Of course.

vertigoaway’s “Break This The Breaking Point 2” (ft. schizoscriptures) is maybe the most addictive track to come out of hexD jungle, a micro-microgenre the Tallahassee-based artist unofficially coined (as far as I can tell) with their 2020 release Jungle Witch. The music combines jungle (breakbeat delirium) with hexD, a deep-internet music subgenre with sped-up vocals and soundscapes that are bitcrushed (reducing the bandwidth or resolution of audio so it becomes distorted). If you want something similar, check out electronic/Lolicore act Loli in early 20s’ feverishly fuzzy breakcore.
