"Autonomy" marks as the second Kekal album being recorded and released without official band members. The term 'autonomy' itself reflects the current state of the band; that it remains autonomous and is kept alive by getting significant contributions from its former members as a collective and/or collaborative work of art in the forms of music, artwork, and audio production.
Carefully crafted and anxiously delivered, the music on "Autonomy" can be best described as emotionally adventurous and introspective in nature. As dark as it is illuminating, this album will definitely challenge listeners to free themselves from seeing music as a mere entertainment commodity. The visual artwork and photography works depicted on CD booklet (also presented digitally upon download) complement the music, and together, they create one solid statement to evoke our subconscious minds - the wildest imaginations and visuals that oftentimes are being suppressed in a conscious level by conformity to the norms.
In 2024, after almost 12 years since the original release date of the album, "Autonomy" received the remastering treatment, using the most up-to-date M/S (mid/side) digital processing. Also, the entire music was re-tuned to 432 Hz pitch from the original 440 Hz when it was recorded. More info about the decision to re-tune to 432 Hz can be read here: kekal.substack.com/p/new-acoustic-project-is-here-watch
