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

We're back at the track premiére biz today with a preview from the German producer THIRDWORLDLABOUR's debut LP titled 'Wiederkunft Eternal', soon to be released (precisely this Friday, December 11th) on Prague-based experimental label and mix series UNIZONE. Previously, the artist has long been part of the 76666 crew who has been releasing different sampler compilations on their channels since 2018, many of which features contributions by him. The track we're presenting today, namely Within, is the first of ten articulate sound design experiments that bring around a warm sense of wonder and intimacy in a desolate, icy-cold digital landscape.

THIRDWORLDLABOUR's work, whose title refers to the German word for 'return', evokes by means of grime-influenced, dynamic electronic compositions a dystopian/visionary world that sounds as kind as dreadful, thanks to the producer's ability to fine-tune the music outings to a very tense emotional progression. The eternal return the LP refers to in its name also indicates a dematerialized idea of timelessness, in which recurrent sound solutions are endlessly rearranged in always fresh and breath-taking moments, at times brutal and at times delicate.







Other than careful sound design, blasting percussions, and prominent bass components, the main tool in the producer's palette is sure to be found in the use of vocal chops and manipulations. Surely inspired by some of the recent years' all-out masterpieces such as Visionist's Safe, the voice is richly manipulated and looped in order to create the backbone of all the release, which is then supplemented by variegated forms of arpeggios, chanting, ethereal ambiance, and much more. Precisely as described before, the digitally-processed voices become instruments of machine-like cold and cutting-edge precision, while retaining the warming embrace - albeit figurative - of human interaction.

The record will be released on Bandcamp in a limited edition of 50 cassettes with design curated by w.rong.corp.s - affiliated visual artist Ver, while the mastering of the tracks (plus additional mixdown) has been curated by Wim Dehaen. Wiederkunft Eternal is ready for pre-order at UNIZONE's Bandcamp, please consider supporting the label and the artist by getting your hands on this exceptional piece of futuristic post-grime.
