The Mon, the ambient/experimental vessel of Urlo (bassist/vocalist of Ufomammut), unveils Live At Kadoc as a free download, accompanied by a live video for the track “Incantation” taken from the same performance.
Urlo has spent the past months touring in support of Embrace The Abandon, the two‑part album cycle — Songs Of Abandon and Songs Of Embrace — charting a journey through duality: loss, surrender, and dissolution on one side; acceptance, renewal, and fragile rebirth on the other. Live At Kadoc captures this narrative in its most vulnerable and unadorned form.
Recorded on 2 April 2026 at the Chapel of Our Lady of Fever (Kadoc) in Leuven, Belgium, during a Spring tour with Kariti, the set presents The Mon stripped to its essential elements: guitar, voice, and electronics unfolding within the chapel’s natural resonance. The space becomes an instrument in itself — amplifying breath, decay, and the slow bloom of sound until architecture and atmosphere merge.
More than a live album, Live At Kadoc documents a singular moment where music and place become inseparable. What remains is not simply a performance, but the memory of a room transformed by vibration and presence. The recording was captured by Stefano Tocci and later mixed and mastered by Urlo at The Howl in Italy.
Urlo adds: “Special thanks to Sara and Benny at Hedera Music Agency and Orange Factory for making this performance possible. And to Kariti, for sharing the road.” Link
