Netlabel Day Release: Into The Rift

Netlabel Day Release: Into The Rift

CerebralAudio is proud to present it's first ever Netlabel Day Release: Into The Rift: Volume One!

Several months ago we put out a call to the netlabel community for submissions for a new compilation. And, we were stunned by the number of people and group that chose to support this effort. Initially, we hoped to create a solid, single-disc length release (about an hour in length). However, this release grew and grew until it became a three disc (3.5 hours) length release. By then end of the submissions thirty artists form around the world submitted works for Into The Rift: Volume One, and have made it into a diverse and eclectic listening experience.

The initial concept was to allow artists to explore areas of their work that they hadn't explored before... And quite a few did just that. In the process the release itself has become an exploration of relating different styles of music to each other. It became an exercise in taking experimental, classical, ambient, Berlin School electronic, rock, and techno / house music and other styles, and seeing how they could play off each other. This diversity makes for a unique and interesting listening experience.
