Trust the Rust is back with a vengeance. The second compilation by Kri Records takes up where the previous one left off: rusty electro, occult wave, distorted acid and melancholic EBM.

We're happy to welcome back Alonzo, NY's finest, who opens the release with his signature 808 bass. Hayter pushes pitched-down vocals and filthy electro vibe further, while Chino delivers a diabolical ravey EBM banger. Serbian duo YusYus marches on with an authoritative synth anthem Masters Of The Future and Disco Morato finishes the A side with a hypnotic slow burner Ultime.

B Side opens with a bang by Parand, followed by arctic electro mist crafted by System Disorder (aka Dj Nephil). Marco Segato smoothly blended electro and jungle with the track Subconscious, Zagreb collective Lab Personnel's dark stomper might evoke fist pumps on the floor, while E.L.I.'s nostalgic piece Atonal Being rounds the release.

Available as a cassette tape and digitally on the 4th of October 2024.
