2 years after his critically acclaimed “Ultrachroma” album, Kangding Ray returns to ARA with a decisively dance-floor LP named “ZERO”.
As the artwork suggests, his different explorations and influences converge into one point on this record, where sound becomes a raw vibration, precisely engineered to bring bodies into movement.
This record marks both a return to the source of his sound in its purest shape, with hints of his debuts on the experimental label raster-noton, as well as the hypnotic journeys he is now known for with his DJsets.
As an artist who is constantly reshaping his own sound in search of new forms, Kangding Ray offers here a singular take on modern dance music, driven by a visceral and futuristic approach.

“When an audio signal crosses the X-axis, there is an infinitesimal moment of silence. ZERO is inspired by this quiet instant, a point of inversion where vibrations die and are reborn at the same time” . KR

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Abo Abo - Biotite [ALC011]

Two resonant voices from Florence’s underground converge in this powerful collaboration between Abo Abo (Daniele Carcassi) and TOMO (Tommaso Andorlini) — The co-founders of the DE RIO collective and record label both deeply rooted and active in Italy’s experimental electronic scene well known for pushing the limits of tribe and mental sound presents their first LP on the Brussels based imprint and collective Alliance.
Abo Abo’s multifaceted practice moves fluidly between clubs, theaters, and DIY spaces, blending academic machinery with raw underground energy that oscillates between precision and chaos. Whether through DJ sets, performances, or installations, Abo Abo treats sound as a living, evolving material — a fluid architecture shaped by space and raw impulse he explores as a territory in constant mutation.
TOMO brings a vision shaped by fast-paced rhythms, glitch minimalism, and tactile sound design. His sets are deeply physical, polyrhythmic journeys where IDM, deep techno, trance and post-tribal textures bleed into one another. Every element in his sonic landscape pulses with tension — somatic, spectral, alive.
Together, they craft an immersive, borderless language where loop-driven hypnosis meets granular abstraction. This LP on Alliance Club bridges their worlds: club energy and sound research, intuition and structure — vibrating between movement and stillness.
