Mortal Prophets – “SUPERSONIC”

The experimental madness of Mortal Prophets has taken yet another fascinating turn with “SUPERSONIC”, an album that plunges headfirst into the glittering pool of disco while completely reinventing it.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you’re transported to some alternate-universe nightclub where the dancefloor exists in four dimensions. The analog synths purr and growl beneath layers of vocoder-drenched vocals that feel nostalgic and completely alien. It’s seriously impressive how seamlessly the Mortal Prophets collective shifts from his previous sonic territories into this pulsing, sequencer-driven dreamscape. There’s this perfect tension between the mechanical precision of the beats and a raw emotional undercurrent that makes each track feel both calculated and completely unhinged.

Standout moments include the hypnotic arpeggios that spiral through the mix like DNA strands unwinding, and those moments when everything strips away to just rhythm and space before rebuilding into something even more massive. The production somehow manages to be both vintage and futuristic – like discovering a lost Moroder soundtrack that was ahead of even his time. This album sits in that sweet spot between dancing your face off and getting lost in sonic details that reveal themselves with each listen. I’ve had this on repeat since I got it, finding new rabbit holes to fall down with every spin.

If you’re into experimental electronic music, classic disco, or just want to hear where dance music can go when it breaks free from convention, “SUPERSONIC” needs to be in your rotation immediately. The Mortal Prophets crew has created something special that pays homage to the past while carving out its own uniquely twisted future.
