We exist because too much music is designed to disappear the moment it’s consumed. Because smoothness has become a default setting rather than a choice. Because questions are more interesting than answers, and tension is more honest than comfort.
TSFPM exists to follow ideas all the way through. To take a thought, a pattern, a suspicion about the world, and refuse to let it stay abstract. We believe that what we repeat, what we amplify, and what we normalise eventually becomes real. The machine exists to expose that process, not to hide it.
We are here to interrupt the loop of passive listening. To make music that asks something of the listener. Attention. Curiosity. A slight willingness to feel unsettled. If a song doesn’t create friction, it rarely creates memory.
We exist because art still has the ability to interfere with the world rather than simply decorate it. Because music can still be a place where ideas collide, structures crack, and assumptions wobble. TSFPM uses sound as a way of poking at belief systems, power structures, and the quiet absurdities of modern life.
We are here to resist the pressure to smooth everything down. To keep the sharp edges visible. To remind ourselves and our listeners that discomfort is often a sign that something real is happening.
Ultimately, we exist to build a body of work that means something beyond the moment it’s released. To leave a trail of songs that hold tension, invite thought, and reward attention over time.
Because repetition creates reality.
Because the machine only stops when no one is listening and we’re not finished yet.
