STEVE JANSEN AND MAIYA HERSHEY
ANNOUNCE NEW SINGLE AND VINYL NEITHER PRESENT NOR ABSENT 

RELEASED BY THE STATE51 CONSPIRACY

In Neither Present Nor Absent industrial sounds slowly expand then flow into a wash of deeply layered,
metallic textures which gamelan melodies weave within, as the track builds into a choir-like crescendo of bells and drone sounds.

New single Neither Present Nor Absent is part of the album under the same name which will be released on vinyl in October, 2022. 
The album will be available in a limited edition of 51 lathe-cut 12” transparent vinyl, designed and assembled in the state51 Atelier
and also as a standard edition 12” heavyweight black vinyl.
