Polymorphism Records adds to its catalog the latest work by Vanity Productions, the alias of Christian Stadsgaard. The Danish producer, in addition to co-founding Posh Isolation alongside Loke Rahbek, has been involved in other collective projects such as Damien Dubrovnik, with his partner Rahbek, and The Empire Line, alongside two other major names: Iron Sight and Varg.

The Madrid-based label launched in 2019 with a first release by Alcarcia, the label's founder. This was the first installment in a series of four releases, concluding with An Eternity Still, a work that stands as a sonic manifesto on transition, memory, and transformation. Vanity Productions delves into the idea of closing cycles, exploring the tension between nostalgia and the need to move forward. The album captures that fleeting moment when memories cling to the present while the future demands its space. There is something ritualistic in this farewell, like shedding accumulated weight, letting go of what was once cherished to embrace the new, or setting fire to the past without fear of what lies ahead.

Musically, this work expands the artist's characteristic sonic spectrum. Across the album's five tracks, Vanity Productions crafts a sound identity that oscillates between harmonic melancholy, long, sustained chords and evocative vocals that transport the listener to a serene and beautiful space, and the gradual erosion created by accumulating layers that degrade the soundscape.

The composition and creation of An Eternity Still feature contributions from Emma Acs and Malthe Fischer, along with Christian Stadsgaard himself. However, space is also given to two other artists, Ireen Amnes and Farzané, who reinterpret two of the album's tracks with distinct outcomes. Ireen Amnes’ version of Vanishing Point takes on a more unsettling tone than the original, while Farzané’s remix of Slow Oscillating Void suggests that the end of the journey is abrupt, starkly contrasting with the comforting sonic environment crafted by Vanity Productions.

Release date: February 14th, 2025.
