Bio
There are more systems than ever dedicated to figuring out exactly what you want. Every click, scroll, pause, and impulse is harvested, refined, and fed back to you in an endless cycle of hyper-targeted desire fulfillment. On their third album, 3, Ann Arbor’s fling ii asks a simple question: what if you made something for absolutely nobody?
In a digital timespace stalked by the shifting, pixelating apex predator of Desire Optimization, fling ii concluded that a humble American neokrautrock n-gon of part-time participants lacked both the resources and domain expertise required to meaningfully compete with the Leviathan of Hypertargeted Urge Satisfaction. Rather than pursue what listeners supposedly want, they identified a marketable capability gap: creating things nobody asked for.
The result is 3, an album entirely diegetic to the experience of making itself — a self-contained reflection on process, intuition, and creative drift. A meta-expression of its own creation, the record functions as a purely inward-facing auto-response.
