“Which sounds lie within the quietness that precedes the rise of new species?”

Calmaria is the first act of Acta Recordings, previously named AVNT Recordings. The label went through a rebranding and reconfiguration to better represent a new generation of emerging artists, specially from Brazil and Latin America.

Acta Recordings aims to be a sheltering space for divergent and limitless creative artists, gender-bending through Pop and Obscure music. We're designing a new and exciting home, from scratch and within the possibilities of our resource availability in a socio-political complicated country - collectively world-building and terraforming in inhospitable places.

The album CLEMENCY holds exceptional significance for CHARITY SsB, as it represents not only a music collection but also his bold venture and evolution in the realm of music production. This album signifies his transformation from a rapper into a versatile music producer. Moreover, it marks his first formal album after years of collaboration with the renowned Shanghai electronic music label GENOME 6.66 Mbp.

CLEMENCY comprises ten diverse tracks, each capturing CHARITY SsB's life reflections and musical insights at various points in time. From 2020's Only One and The Meaning of Life to Wood House and Zhuangzi created during Shanghai's lockdown in 2022, these tracks span several years, showcasing his creative depth and rich emotional world.

The album's title, CLEMENCY, embodies a profound philosophy. CHARITY SsB believes that in a world filled with desire, conflict, and war, and within the complexities of societal systems, music is a divine gift of mercy and solace to humanity. Music creation is his sole pathway to experiencing true freedom and spiritual liberation. It holds significant meaning in his life, serving as his soul's sanctuary and the pillar of his spirit.

Many tracks in the album, such as the nearly ten-minute-long Wood House and the ambient-rich Courier, display intricate segment connections and rich musical layers. These songs resemble unique journeys, with each journey offering distinct life meanings. Through these musical works, CHARITY SsB conveys his profound insights into life and his boundless passion for music. To him, music is like a utopia of the spiritual world, providing him with endless solace and inspiration.

We are thrilled to unveil lain os is online vol. 2: club cyberia, the 33rd release from Absurd Trax. Building on the foundation laid by volume 1, this collection brings together another 17 artists from across the globe, spanning from Argentina to Hong Kong, all paying homage to Serial Experiments Lain—the quintessential anime for our generation. The theme of this release, "club cyberia," is brought to life by these artists, who have crafted the ideal soundtrack for a night spent in the heart of a digital underworld.

Entering through an ambient dembow gateway, listeners are drawn into a realm of compositional prowess and emotional resonance. Here, each track tells its own story: a deconstructed club anthem that evolves from serene string arrangements into pulsating club beats, a thundering drum ‘n’ bass banger that doubles as an emotional rollercoaster, footwork that deftly weaves in the anime's iconic soundscapes (yes, even that familiar powerline hum), and a melancholic yet soothing score from the show, perfectly...  more
