Who is Mason Manson? Have you seen him? What is Masonic Guide?
Mason Manson and his first full length written, produced, performed and self released album dropped this past Saturday, July 26th. It’s called Masonic Guide and it is has something that very few artists are able to produce in the modern era- it is a complete body of work from start to finish with theme and continuity in every track.
Mason Manson is a young producer we started following after we heard one of his beats on the Dirtybutt album, Analog Horror Core released in 2022. Since then, he has dropped multiple drum kit patches and presets with his signature distorted and dystopian sound. Some call it extreme trap, some people call it rap core or incorporate the term “emo” into it’s naming convention. Whatever you want to call it, it appears that Mason Manson also has something to say and he says it in this language. On the periphery of the Deathnote Inc scene, we hope to see him play live in that context soon.

Accompanying Masonic Guide is the video for “Fresh”– track 8 on Masonic Guide. The video does an incredible job of creating curiosity and buzz by asking the question, “have you seen him?”. We haven’t but we look forward to seeing what this material feels like in a live show and solving the mystery of the question itself.
