TSIDMZ (ThuleSehnsucht In Der MaschinenZeit)
“Nowadays we are not so much at war against a nation, against a phenomenon, against a party or a political idea, but rather against the emergence of a new and scary aeon, an aeon that will sweep away traditions, will invert values, will annihilate and will replace the deep, real and spiritual essence of human being with fake, low and demonic identities. As consequence we need to be Futurists: watching to the future and to the technique as a continuation in respect to the past and to the Tradition”.
TSIDMZ is an Italian post-atomic/electro-martial project with numerous influences from various genres within the field of Electronic Music. It was born and conceived between 2002 and 2007 (the year when it was first produced). Its purpose is to be as eclectic as possible while remaining faithful to its aim. For this reason TSIDMZ has always been involved in collaborations with other musicians, including appearances and track collaborations etc and will always continue along this working template.TSIDMZ has signed and released with musical labels as: Old Europa Café, Ufa Muzak, SkullLine and much more.
TSIDMZ stands for THULESEHNSUCHT IN DER MASCHINENZEIT, that is to say sehnsucht (nostalgia) for Thule in Machine Times. Thule is a “primordial space”, a physical place probably, but a metaphysical one undoubtedly. According to the indo-european mythology, indoeuropean peoples who once inhabited the lands of Eurasia were descended from Thule, the last land remained of the continent Iperborea. Very briefly and roughly speaking, we can say that Thule is the equivalent of the biblical Eden. It is the place of the original “perfection”, the place of the ancestors and heroes who lived close to the divine. TSIDMZ expresses exactly this sort of nostalgia both from a pessimistic point of view, meaning ‘absence’, and from a constructive point of view, meaning a new accomplishment. This new accomplishment has then to be fulfilled in our times, “In Der Maschinenzeit”. Is it possible to realize a fair, sublime, “spiritual” society in the post-atomic era? Is it possible to combine the machine with the Tradition? According to TSIDMZ, some possible answer is to be found in the Futurism on an artistic and cultural level, while in Socialism, on a political and social level. As a consequence, electronic music and every form of “industrial” art becomes imperative. As far as the social and the political levels are concerned, this New Man has to be a master of the machine, and not a slave or a victim anymore. Likewise, on a cultural level the New Man needs to integrate with the machine, which has to become part of this new culture in order to continue the traditional values with this new tool. As a result, this will create an artistic and aesthetic identification, which will give a new identity appropriate to the Arbeiter, as Jünger understood it (the Arbeiter is the E. Junger concept about a New Man that combines technique and ascetic / metaphysical vision).
“THE TECHNIQUE IS THE MEAN BY WHICH THE FIGURE OF THE WORKER MOBILIZES THE WORLD” E. JUNGER
As consequence TSIDMZ enjoyed the Eurasian idea, concept and theme: social equilibrium, overcoming of every ideology, a metapolitical and metaphysical weltanschauung to regain the Eternity in the post-modernity.
