The Recreation Room

The Recreation Room is a cosmic library dub album by Disrupt on the new Zonedog imprint, soaked in swirling synths, mind-altering loops and lushly textured polygons. The Recreation Room follows up on the old sci-fi idea of the holodeck, a computer-generated reality where space ship crews can get a break from the daily grind - a place where the mind can travel while one's arse stays firmly on the couch. Disrupt is taking a closer look at the mechanics behind it, then messes with it's deeper controls to optimize the simulation for an intense horizontal experience. The VR-ready sequel to Omega Station (2018) is a dubbed-out piece of sonic fiction with a washed-out nineties digitality, as seen through layers of tape all the way back to the Black Ark ? this is music from a future that has already happened.
