Gundam is a long-running Japanese franchise that began in 1979 with the anime Mobile Suit Gundam, introducing giant humanoid mecha known as “mobile suits.” The series revolutionized the genre by focusing on realistic military science fiction, where war, politics, and human drama are central themes. At its core, Gundam explores the human cost of conflict, often depicting battles between Earth-based governments and space colonies seeking independence. The mobile suits themselves—especially the iconic RX-78-2 Gundam—have become cultural icons, inspiring countless sequels, spin-offs, model kits, and video games. Today, Gundam stands as one of Japan’s most influential and enduring pop culture exports, blending high-tech spectacle with moral complexity.

“Rats Peace” rolls in with an easy, playful groove that keeps things light and unforced. Smooth in its flow and fun at its core, the track leans into a laid-back rhythm that feels instantly inviting. It’s the kind of beat that makes you smile without trying too hard, easy to vibe with in any setting. Simple but stylish, “Rats Peace” proves that sometimes the best tracks are the ones that don’t overcomplicate the joy of listening.

Rats Peace

Like in a game when you got the dojo and the dudes are all crazy and obsessed with some obscure form of mega steroid fueled doctrine and you have to do a bunch of side quests for the bulked out dudes before you can approach the leader, who will taunt you for being so small and weak.

Droidian (the cultural dynamics of androids) Slippers (those who are falling down). Although the thought is amusing, an android would never need slippers to warm their feet. But what are the needs of an android? Love? Compassion? Are androids capable of perceiving beauty? We know A.I. systems are able to emulate styles of art that took the masters a lifetime to achieve. Paleolithic research shows the rise of art led to more complex means of trade, and therefore the ability to record, spread, and grow culture.

Welcome to #TapeLab—stay a while and listen. Founded in 2017 by lifelong friends, Tape Lab is a collective of artists and a hub for innovation, always open to collaboration. With the zeal of a self-published memoir, our sound is our own, but you can be the decider. We make music and art that sounds like it was fun to make and stands out in a sea of bland beats. 

As independent artists, we are always exploring new ways to expand our audience and find new creative outlets—especially with other undiscovered artists!

#TapeLab is currently based out of two headquarters in Durham, NC, and The Hamptons, NY.
