WUNF 3 is not for the faint of heart or the clean of speaker. WakeUpNFuck excels at creating atmosphere through technical imperfection. Liz Ocean proves she can write a hook even when the mix is trying to erase it. Sladyen Skaya brings the weight, though his track requires the most patience.
Ugly, compelling, and self-aware. Set your alarm. You’ll probably hit snooze, but you’ll feel guilty about it. -WakeUpNFuck- Liz Ocean- Sladyen Skaya - WUNF 3...
Audiophiles. People who ask, “Is the bass supposed to distort like that?” WUNF 3 is not for the faint of heart or the clean of speaker
Liz Ocean provides the EP’s most surprising moment. Over a submerged dub bassline, her vocals float from a whisper to a distorted scream. The production deliberately clips the high end, making her voice sound like it’s transmitting from a flooded basement. The hook— “I don’t need air / I need a short circuit” —is the most memorable on the EP. It’s the closest WUNF 3 comes to a “banger,” albeit one that’s rusted shut. Sladyen Skaya brings the weight, though his track
WUNF 3 isn’t an album you casually stream on a Sunday morning. It’s the third transmission from the chaotic collective WakeUpNFuck (WUNF), a project that thrives on distortion, loop-based aggression, and spoken-word vitriol. This installment drafts two distinct voices: the ethereal yet corrupted Liz Ocean and the guttural, industrial poet Sladyen Skaya . The result is 34 minutes of genre-friction that sits somewhere between post-club, power electronics, and deconstructed techno.
Fans of Lustmord , *Arca’s Kick iii , or anyone who believes a “wrong” note is more interesting than a correct one.
The closer brings Liz Ocean and Sladyen Skaya together for the first time. Their voices don’t harmonize; they argue. Ocean’s high-end melody is pitted against Skaya’s low-end mumble over a broken footwork beat. It collapses into pure noise at 2:45, then rebuilds as a simple, beautiful synth pad for ten seconds before cutting off mid-note. Frustrating. Intentional. Perfect.
