Acclaimed composer and instrumentalist SOLUNE is set to release MINUTIAE., the debut full-length album from her genre-defying project Mad Vantage. A searing blend of progressive metal, nu-jazz, and electronic textures, the record positions SOLUNE as a formidable new voice in heavy music; bursting unapologetically into the scene with meticulous grooves, lush harmony, and fierce creative intent.Fusing the rhythmic precision of jazz with the weight of distortion, double-kick pedals, and synthesizers, MINUTIAE. presents a sonic landscape shaped by years of artistic evolution. Recorded live in the studio with her band, the album thrives on real-time interplay-delivering polyrhythmic intensity without losing its human pulse.
Exploring themes of erosion and strength-both internal and external, MINUTIAE. reflects on personal and societal change in the age of digital transformation. It’s music of catharsis, self-definition, and defiant vulnerability.
“This record is a culmination of years of growth and artistic evolution,” says SOLUNE. “In an industry where misconceptions about women persist (particularly in both heavy and jazz music), I wanted to stay true to the integrity of my craft and bring together parts of my world I’m deeply passionate and unapologetic about: intricate and precise rhythms, feminism, distortion, bright pink fashion, and loud, groove-driven instrumental music.”
Accolades for Mad Vantage already include the APRA Professional Development Award (2025), MIJF Take Note Leader (2025), and the MWIJF Recording Prize (2021). The project has earned praise in The Age and Beat Magazine, and supported genre heavyweights like Grievous Bodily Calm and Your Girl Pho.
