Artist
RXM Reality, aka Chicago-based producer Mike Meegan, makes frantic, jagged electronic music using a combination of hardware samplers and software. While his earliest releases were more overtly influenced by techno and house, yet often breaking into moments of distorted chaos, later albums like 2019's Devil World Wide are dystopian, post-industrial creations drawing from IDM, grime, and footwork. Meegan began releasing music as RXM Reality in 2014, starting with a self-titled cassette on the Pretty All Right label. Subsequent releases appeared on We Be Friends, including 2017's Saad Market. His work gradually shifted from danceable (but still experimental) tracks to more blown-out, glitchy constructions reflecting fear, paranoia, and anxiety. The aptly titled Panic Cycle was released by Hausu Mountain in 2018, and the even more punishing Devil World Wide appeared on the label a year later. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
