In her most personally narrative work to date, A Fossil Begins To Bray is the follow up on Dais Records for NYC producer Hiro Kone, furthering the dialogue set forth on her 2018 release, Pure Expenditure. While the statements on Pure Expenditure rallied behind a point of dangerous excess and injustice, the material on A Fossil Begins To Bray embark upon a journey of discovery and self-analysis, proposing a potential reorientation towards absence in hopes of illuminating potential futures. In Mao's own words, "This album considers the power of absence as neither a lack or deficit, but as a quiet, indeterminable force to cultivate in this time of looming and unrelenting techno-fascism. It asks that we take pause to consider our learned languages and actualities and to better consider how desire shapes our recollections and interpretations of this 'existence.'" This allegory is expertly applied to every song on A Fossil Begins To Bray. Mao has established a long history of employing absence in her productions to maximum effect. With a vast assortment of diverse elements at play, no single track ever feels overly convoluted and further illustrates Hiro Kone's skillful attention to dynamic tension and flow. Tracks such as "Fabrication of Silence" and "Submerged Dragon" perfectly represent the power of absence, utilized in a matter to create unique amalgams of decisive, cinematic techno rhythms from the electronic void. As the melodic elements contained within A Fossil Begins To Bray begin to unravel and slowly take form, the unaware are rewarded with a driving yet tangible refrain that offers resolve in contrast to the dense, texture-laden backdrop that forms the album's foundation. The first single, "Feed My Ancestors", expands upon Hiro Kone's signature take on electronic music structures. Seemingly free from the predictable contracts imposed by any one genre's stereotypes, Hiro Kone throttles the foreboding bassline in favor of more calculated, abstract cut-ups that gracefully hold the track in place between hopeful utopia and something more ominous. The production and detail found throughout the album shows Hiro Kone's neverending development and dedication to principle. 'A Fossil Begins To Bray' is a challenge to dust off the forgotten modes of existence, expel the accepted paradigms within modern subculture and utilize the absence left behind. Mixed and mastered by noted electronic producer Kris Lapke (Alberich) featuring artwork and packaging design by acclaimed visual artist Tauba Auerbach.

Works well, but it doesn't come with drywall anchors
Bought it to wall mount my wifi router.
The whole thing is very small, but the straps are very long, so it can support many devices. The straps also get reasonably tight.
Installation is easy, it's nice that it comes with a level.
Annoying that it only comes with six screws, and no drywall anchors. So you either have those, have to go get them, or screw it to a stud (which you probably should do depending on how he heavy the object you want to mount is).

Clean, sturdy way to mount a cable box/router (easy install)
Used this TotalMount to get my cable box/router off the shelf and tidy up the setup behind the TV. Install was straightforward (screws/anchors included), and the mount feels solid once it’s on the wall. The adjustable fit is the best part—it held my device snug without bending or wobbling, and there’s still enough airflow so it doesn’t feel “choked” in place.
It also helps a lot with cable management since everything stays in one spot instead of hanging or sliding around. Tip: measure your device first and lightly tighten, then do the final snug once it’s centered. Overall, great value if you want a cleaner, more organized setup.

Used it to hang two routers on the wall
This product was surprisingly good. For my purposes it was better than it needed to be. The drywall screws provided were very easy to use. I attached one side of the mount to a stud but I think for most purposes the drywall screws would have been adequate. I was surprised that they had channels in the plastic for the straps. This certainly made the molds for this product more expensive to make, but it made the straps easier to thread through the mount than if the had just made it so the straps went between the device and the wall. The product had a level. For my purposes it would have been fine without that but it did make it a little easier to install.
I mounted two routers (one was our network router and the other was a router that provided a land line telephone) side by side in this mount. I separated them a bit so as to allow each to cool. It was a nice improvement over having the routers flopping around on a desk and periodically falling on the floor. I gave it five stars overall. It was nicely built, I couldn't see what they could have done better, the price seemed reasonable and it got here in a timely way.

Easy install and perfect mount for PS3 Slim
I struggled to find a mount for my PS3 slim and as I already have TotalMount's PS4 Slim mount, I had the utmost trust in this one.
Installation is already easy and made easier with the built-in level. Simply hold level and screw/drill in screws. But honestly, one of the best things about this mount are the included screws. Their thick threading ensures that the mount being ripped off or loosened is almost impossible.
As for the quality of the mount holding my PS3 Slim, which isn't exactly light (7 lbs), no complaints. It was pain to set up within the straps as I needed a second set of hands, but it is very secure and I trust it's not going anywhere. But as a tip for anyone installing heavier objects, make sure the adjuster buckles are near the top. Because of the PS3's weight, it unavoidably weighed the straps down so I found that tightening the console near the top secures it in places without gravity playing too much of a role. But I recommend do trying to avoid using this mount for heavier things in general.

Excellent For the Price
The mount is much smaller than I had originally thought but that does not really pose a problem as the straps are excessively long allowing for large items. It is very straight forward and easy to install. The plastic buckle on the provided straps are less than impressive as they do not tighten as much as I would like. That having said that I'm not in fear of it falling because each is secure and snug against the console.
If your item is larger than the mount than it will be able to move length-wise as the straps are not connected to the mount but rather you push them through the provided slots. On my next install, I'm going to try using a wedge or clamp that will keep the straps secured to the mount to mitigate this.
The install hardware consist of 6 bear-claw style drywall screws. These are have very poor quality control as 2 of the screws had 1/4in metal shavings attached to them one of which sliced open my finger during install. I was using a simple screwdriver and was being moderately careful as to not damage the plastic. I recommend using anchors that you are more familiar with. Also I will be using washers next time as the holes in the plastic have a small lip in them that the screw is supposed to snug up to and I don't feel as comfortable with it after actually mounting the console. I did a fair amount of tugging on the straps to try and tighten them and was worried I may pull the mount loose.
Over all, I very much like this item. It is very versatile and you cannot beat the price. i will defiantly be buying this again and using my own hardware to mount so that I feel more secure putting expensive items 6 ft off the ground.
