Mayakovsky’s Runner
Concept album by The Mercurial Man
This is the second album I’ve written and produced. My first was “the Prophet” back in 2009, a wild maniac electronic-rock opera, a shock opera, technopera, or something akin to Justice’s Space Opera IRIS from 2020.
Mayakovsky’s Runner is a different kind of album though, exploring cinematic boulevards and video gaming avenues of an electronic musicians dreams in a broke down 2000 Buick Regal named Jasper as a love letter to his fiancée who is so far away. It follows the exploits of the Mercurial Man as he journeys into the dystopian cyberpunk cesspool that is Dead City.
