hydra:bad is the sonic persona of Karan Sandhu — a Nairobi born, Kampala raised producer channeling club intensity as a path toward inner stillness. His music swerves between rupture and resolve, confronting the friction of multiplicity through percussive violence and spectral beauty.
Children Born with No Faces unfolds as an audio exorcism. In recessed shadows lurk not external monsters but what has been disavowed within. Drawing from a palette of jagged percussion, spectral synths, snarly subs; each track stages a crisis of boundary: between self and other, desire and revulsion, pain and pleasure. In this sound, these boundaries blur, collapse, and are reconstituted — distorted textures bleed through like psychic wounds that never quite close. This is not horror for spectacle — it is horror as ontology.
