This is something a bit different from our usual releases. Lean back and start dreaming of a dark futuristic society shrouded by rain. Cold breezes, mellow layers of chaos and a fistful of glichty noises will come forth and let "Access to Arasaka" (AtA) introduce you to his visions of a different future. A new world ruled by corporations acting as governments, fully interactive neural internet and gang warfare.

We are happy to release "METAX". A lucrative album that offers perspective.

The kind folks at wttf.org wrote this review:

My fellow internet friends, I have a treat for you in the form of amazing glitch/IDM/lo-fi/ambient techno. Access to Arasaka has released his first full length album after months of careful synthesizer abuse, and the result is purely euphoric.

Picture the dankest, dingiest city you can imagine. Every alleyway a festering hole of corruption and urban waste. Imagine a million tiny needles emerging from the porous brick streets, pointing into the blackened sky. Without warning the needles spray water so powerfully compressed that it rips the bricks from buildings and sends a torrent of stone into the air. Imagine yourself trapped in the street with a lover whose just told you they're leaving, instinctively using your body to shield them from the rain of stone soon to fall.

Access to Arasaka is the man watching this all happen.
