About Release
Lablab – Anyone Who In The Future appears as a 12-inch vinyl EP on the artist’s own Lablab self-released imprint, catalogue LABLAB01. The record arrives in late November 2026 and navigates the borders of experimental IDM and beats-driven techno, offering a six-track journey that balances ghostly ambience with a subtle rhythmic core.
The EP follows Lablab’s recent co-production credit on Intertoto’s “Siccar Point” for What About Never, signalling a move toward a more personal curatorial voice. While the label’s broader catalogue remains undefined, this release stands as a clear statement of artistic intent, marrying delicate electronic textures with an undercurrent of techno-inflected pulse.
Side A begins with “Dymondia”, a track that whispers with an ethereal atmosphere and hints at a rhythmic suggestion that eases the listener into the record’s world. The second cut, the title track “Anyone Who In The Future”, adds a faint backlight that imparts a celestial glow, deepening the mood without abandoning the ambient foundation. Closing the side, “Stills” introduces a slightly more pronounced groove, its swirling pads giving the piece a sense of forward motion while retaining the EP’s overall introspective tone.
The B-side turns toward a hazier, lo-fi aesthetic. “Plomo” presents a grainy collage of memories, its texture encouraging inward reflection and a warm, enveloping feel. “Retool” continues this inward journey, offering a similarly muted palette that complements the side’s overall mood, making the flip side a cohesive, contemplative counterpart to the more forward-moving A-side.
Within Lablab’s emerging discography, this EP marks a step toward self-directed releases, building on the collaborative experience gained from the Intertoto project. The combination of ambient depth and understated techno rhythms situates the record comfortably within current underground electronic currents, where producers often blend experimental sound design with dancefloor sensibility.
For DJs, the record supplies two distinct moods: the A-side works well as a warm-up or late-night set piece, its subtle propulsion allowing for smooth mixing into deeper techno or IDM selections. The B-side’s lo-fi textures are ideal for more introspective moments, perfect for closing a set or creating a reflective interlude. Collectors will appreciate the concise six-track format that showcases Lablab’s range from airy ambience to restrained groove.
The release is pressed as a 12-inch vinyl, matching the format expectations of the experimental techno and IDM community and providing the tactile experience valued by vinyl enthusiasts.
