Ben Klock and Fadi Mohem are releasing a new collaborative album, 'Layer One'.
Due out on Friday, 29th November, the new record takes in 10 tracks and marks the inaugural release on the duo's new joint label, LAYER. Flowdan and Coby Sey contribute vocals on the album, which sees Klock and Mohem shift their usual techno sound towards more sparse, experimental and IDM-focused territory.
Explaining more about the album, a press release said: "The conceptual direction of 'LayerOne' delves into a post-human world, where humans are close to extinction on Earth, leaving only imprints, traces, and relics behind – digital fossils and machine-generated images capturing fleeting moments of non-human photography, as Artificial Intelligence remains in a world that quietly thrives without us.
"We do not perceive this as a bleak apocalyptic dystopia, but more a sober and serene reflection of a world that continues to exist and flourish, indifferent to the absence of humanity. Despite this unremitting setting, through this journey we find survivors who signal a remembrance of the human sensibilities."

'Layer One' follows on from Klock and Mohem previously collaborating on the former's Klockworks label in 2022.
