We’re thrilled to welcome Exhilarated Ego to the Ozcillex and Beatskip Music Group family with the powerful release of “Functional Depression” — a two-track techno experience that dives headfirst into the raw, unfiltered energy of the underground.
UNLEASHING PULSATING BASSLINES AND ELECTRIFYING SHOWS FOR COUNTLESS YEARS ON STAGE, Exhilarated Ego emerges with a bold new musical identity. Having toured and performed for years as a bassist, this seasoned artist now steps into the darker, grittier world of raw techno — not as a reinvention, but as a natural evolution.
From rocking out in bands since the age of 12 to discovering a profound connection with electronic soundscapes, the journey of Exhilarated Ego is a story of passion, transformation, and creative rebirth.
“Functional Depression” is a double single exploring the duality of survival:
the strength it takes to function in a system that breaks you,
and the silent weight of emotions threatening to drown you.
Dark, raw, and unfiltered – this is not just sound.
It’s a state of being. A state of suffering.
Out now on all platforms via Ozcillex and Beatskip Music Group.
Welcome to the raw pulse of Exhilarated Ego.
