OOH-sounds family members more eaze, pardo & glass join forces on a celestial album linking ambient neo-folk, fractured electronics and romantic escapism.
With their EP “L.U.C.A”, Glass can be considered as architects. Their music is heavily conceptualized and meticulously designed. Once procuded, this alternative electronic music sounds natural, immersive and singular.
Starting with their eponym track “L.U.C.A” , they navigate through chemical sound design to faultless glitchy drums’ sounds. A challenging musical combination that morphs into an epic, yet sophisticated melodic ending.
By focusing on the physical aspect of sound—in its broadest way—'crY' can be seen as a response to an explicit impulse to investigate modern commodification beyond its soothing, enjoyable and relaxing facade. Its sonic matrix is a complex yet crystal clear mixture of deconstructed jungle, weirdo techno and ambient structures, a puzzled vision made out of fragmented references including UK dance music, gaming, Max/MSP deviations and other electronic concoctions.

Various Artists : Pro Unlimited is a wide spectrum gathering of label affiliates, newcomers and producers we had a crush on in the past months.

Glass asked to their favorite artists of the experimental electronic scene to deconstruct and destroy their album ‘Anxiety Prime’. This various, built around classic and recognizable Glass fragments, redefines the album in a totally new way and gives it a fresh ambient and club touch. This is the soundtrack to another stressful & violent world.
We cannot thanks enough the artists involved : Aho Ssan, Apollo Noir, Christian Coiffure, CNDSD, KMRU, Low Khey, More Eaze, Zero Crossing Point & ZULI. And of course Glass who also included a brand new live version of their iconic track ’Skin Transfer’.
Anxiety Prime is the result of a collaboration between Glass and Comic Sans’s headquarters. Through the whole record, the experimental writing of the duo bends underground club culture references into a playful and hybrid sound experience. To achieve this result, the Caen based producers use every tools at their disposal from cutting-edge techniques like max/msp programming, machine learning to random internet sound sampling, voice experimentation and field recordings to name a few.

WORSTLTD002 - Freefloat Remixes
Stripped down to harsh ambient textures, Glass' 'Maïdan' remix is lifted from the incoming 10" vinyl reissue of Veik's 'Maïdan/I7LI' EP.
"Because we love their deconstructed approach to music and, above all, because they are our mates, it felt natural to ask them to remix our song. It resulted in this ambient piece of scraped textures made from the stems of Maïdan." – Veik
