About this product
Enter the kaleidoscopic world of Lone - returning to the Greco-Roman tag for his first album in five years 'Hyperphantasia'. An artist who has been soundtracking dancefloors since the early 2000s, Lone made his production debut in 2008 with 'Lemurian', a hip-hop inspired before moving into the vibrant future-facing soundscapes we have come to know. His back catalog ranges through house, rave, ambient, and electronica, and on 'Hyperphantasia', he sets himself the challenge to bring all of those influences together for one body of work that he describes 'like an album in my mind'. Referring back to the album title, the definition of 'hyperphantasia' is a condition characterized by exceptionally vivid and detailed mental imagery and for this album he tested himself to see how close he could get the music to sound exactly like what he was hearing in his imagination. On 'Hyperphantasia', Lone deepens his relationship with vocals. Having previously relied on vocal samples or more abstract live vocal treatments, this latest album marks a shift toward richer, more pop-leaning sensibilities. He makes a clear lyrical statement, enlisting a diverse and carefully chosen cast of collaborators London-based artists and fellow Greco-Roman affiliates Ell Murphy and Lou Hayter, Barcelona's breakthrough singer Bikoko, cult Nottingham rapper Juga-Naut, and Hong Kong-born/London-based musician Merry Lamb Lamb. Together, they contribute to what stands as a career-defining project. The end result is a cinematic experience exploding full of color. You are introduced to the album with an old school rave anthem 'Life Spark' and an interlude welcoming you into this musical world. Like chapters in a novel, the album ebbs and flows beautifully between stripped-back melodies 'Opening A Portal', 'Photographs That Don't Exist', 'Sickly, Sweetly, Summer Movie' and 'Fruit Rots, Water Flows Downstr

Born from the fractal innerworld of Vymethoxy Redspiders, better known as Urocerus Gigas from Leeds-based xenofeminist crisis energy rock duo Guttersnipe, The Ephemeron Loop's debut is a synaesthetic acid bath that cracks open the doors of perception to reveal a sonic landscape of ineffable beauty, divine femininity and continual transformation. InchPsychonautic EscapismInch sublimes Guttersnipe's teeth-gnashing spacegrind aesthetic leaving washes of dream pop ambience, dilated speedcore fusillades and shapeshifting psychedelic dub effects. It's an album that lodges itself creatively between Cocteau Twins, Arca, Basic Channel and Napalm Death, lysergically fluxing imperceptibly between seemingly contradictory sonics and philosophies. Miss VR took 14 long, difficult years to write the album, which developed cautiously as she broke through the misery of her pre-transition life with shoegaze music, rave and psychedelic drugs in Leeds' queer underground. An existence languishing in negativity, soundtracked by extreme music was replaced with the opportunity to experience euphoria, elation and ecstatic freedom, emotions that coalesce sensually on InchPsychonautic EscapismInch. These formative experiences are the album's initial building blocks, assembled between 2007 and 2018 as Miss VR came to grips with her reality as an autistic/ADHD trans woman and the multi-dimensional psychotropic experiences that assisted that realization. And as V's worldview expanded and shifted as she lived a fresh life, the music itself developed spiritually. In 2018, after being impressed with producer Ross Halden's work with Guttersnipe, Miss VR asked him to assist her with developing The Ephemeron Loop's fragmented songs and visions. InchI learned a lot about why people don't usually combine various kinds of sounds or styles in music,Inch she admits. InchIt is very difficult to get it to all w
