about

Mitternacht is a member of Liverpool band Rongorongo. His solo music deals in electronic soundscapes veering between blissful ambience and lo-fi techno. ‘The Snake’ was loosely conceived as a soundtrack to driving along the mysterious, historic route through the Pennines which connects his hometown of Liverpool with his childhood city of Sheffield, and as such forms a bridge between family and friends. The music attempts to evoke the fierce natural beauty of this treacherous road.

"Described as “…a soundtrack to driving along the Snake Pass” which “…connects…Liverpool with…Sheffield…” this mix of techno and ambience does quite a job evoking an image of an orange Ford Focus ST driving along this old road blaring out cheap sounding garage music. It could be the setting for a folk horror movie. On that basis, this imaginary soundtrack hits all the right marks and offers enough nuance to induce differing moods within the listener." www.thepensivequill.com/2021/11/predominance-11.html?fbclid=IwAR2KP0et6MiYriGhg8KFH_lsUsMy1132v0TvSf-EMUnrWaoMPAPRnR8JB3E
