Since 2013 he has made solo music under the moniker <strong>Mukqs<\/strong>, which finds him twisting elements of ambient music, noise, techno, video game music, and free-for-all sample collage into rapidly shifting productions united under the banner of his strictly live, hardware-focused practice. <strong>Mukqs<\/strong> releases have appeared on labels including Orange Milk, Patient Sounds, Husky Pants, Jacktone, No Rent, Midwich, Doom Trip, and Umor Rex. Allison performs as a member of projects including free music trio <strong>Good Willsmith<\/strong>, rock band <strong>BBsitters Club<\/strong>, noise duos <strong>Tasha\u2019s Hideous Laughter<\/strong> and <strong>Manual Pollination<\/strong>, and a number of collaborations with musicians and friends based in his home of Chicago. In 2022 Allison started the <strong>Hausu Mountain<\/strong> satellite label <strong>Blorpus Editions<\/strong>, home to a growing catalog of dozens of releases by an international cadre of contemporary experimental artists.<\/h5>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<h5><em><strong>Juckport<\/strong><\/em>, <strong>Mukqs<\/strong>\u2019s first album in nearly two years, is animated by a duality of glitched-out abstraction and intangible bliss. Synthesizer pads stretch beyond the imagination\u2019s horizon line, counterbalanced by a churn of clipped samples that scatter across the stereo field like rapidfire psychedelic flashbacks. Cohesion emerges through textural continuity and development rather than repetition or pattern-making. Blink and innumerable details might slip by unnoticed, and the landscape might have shifted entirely. Still, as more viscous sounds enfold the listener, they communicate a calm, settled mindset, reflecting the motion of a creative mental state; large amounts of information cohere into a focused stream that reacts intuitively with the introduction of each new complicating element.<\/h5>\n<h1><\/h1>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ANNOUNCING: Mukqs &#8211; Juckport To be released on June 12th, 2026 on Tape, CD, digitally, and tank top w\/ DL code.
