With bouncy, yet disorienting patterns that keep you on the edge of your seat, SOMA cranks the tension to max, like a heart-racing POV horror movie, showcasing Jenn's reborn thirst for radical sound wizardry and alien club solutions.
As you navigate through the depths of this release, you may find yourself ensnared in an intricate web of sonic aberrations, questioning reality and wondering what lies around the next sonic corner. Jenn's immersive arrangements convey a sense of relentless pursuit, like sprinting through a dense, eerie forest with a shattered handy-cam, with the same crushing intensity of "The Blair Witch Project."
For this installment, Jenn joined forces with underground heavyweights Talpah, EKSE and TVVASTE, each of whom infused their unique poison to one of the tracks. The EP is completed by Ludwig Wandinger's remix, which feels like the theme of a game over screen. Finally, the chance to regain your breath you were seeking for.
SOMA invites you to surrender yourself to the unknown, to embrace the thrill of the chase, and to revel in the exhilarating uncertainty that lies within. Allow the ominous allure of Jenn's music to consume you, as you step into the dark and twisted sonic abyss he has conjured.

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.

In his personal take on synth music, Capiuz explores a language made of liquid notes and pointillistic counterpoints, all stemming from a single machine. This album has been composed using the MIDI language and then recorded in one take with a single synthesizer, investigating non-human ways of playing the instrument. The computer is treated as the intermediate that connects the composer's intentions with the machine, allowing for complexities and velocities that go beyond the keyboard.
The inspiration for this record comes from the romantic music movement that flared up in Europe during the 19th century and its innovations in regards to using difficult technical excerpts to produce and create new types of sonic palettes and emotions, without indulging in aimless instrumental virtuosity. In Future Romanticism this concept takes various shapes, going from fast and intricate cascade of notes, reminiscent of Black Midi music, to an evolving sound design that morphs the tracks into new textures and timbers passing through intricate and layered polyphonies.

Luca Favaro (Capiuz) is a sound artist and composer from Italy whose work explores sound in all its forms and possibilities of use, from sound installations to DJ sets and live improvisation. His art investigates the use of sound as an architectural and spatial element, finding his roots in sound design, club music, and field recording. 
As a composer, he has produced music for both digital and museum installations (Chiasso Perduto, Castello Gamba), as well as for theater, ballet, and visual media. With his projects, focusing on both the dancefloor and sonic experimentation, Favaro has performed various DJ sets and live audio/visual performances all across Europe and has released music with Unizone (Prague), Early Reflex (Turin), Over My Body (Taipei, London) and Eclephsia (Paris). He currently hosts Hectic, a music program exploring new avant-gardes on Radio Raheem (Milan). As a programmer, he has created various Max for Live devices published by Hide Productions.

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
