*100 copies limited edition* As a continuation of her ethnographic sound archeology, decoding and recoding ancestral forms of rhythm and melody, The Altar EP emerges as an invisible sonic architecture, a temporary temple... Here sound emerges as consciousness, an entity influencing and changing its environments through emotional arousal.

The Altar is a sacred dance between knowledge and secrecy, one of intonation, evocation, gestural and accented imagination. Using the ancestral mind as a conceptual tool, we learn that it is not about what we know, but how we know it. As these emotional resonances make us remember…

On The Altar EP, the first Cortizona cassette release, Nkisi (aka Melika Ngombe Kolongo) channels her sound research on ancestral African ethnography and her love for 90's club escapism, throbbing Belgian 80's industrial EBM pulses and electronic extravaganza stompers. Resulting in four ultra personal tracks, drenched in hypnotic mysticism. Visionary spiritual Afrofuturism for a new jilted generation. Deep cuts for your soul, mind and body in a confusing world.
