ABOUT THE EP
META4LYFE (EP)— Tape Lab
Released: September 8, 2020
Runtime: 4 Songs (8:56 minutes)
META4LYFE is a fast, funny, slightly unhinged 2yng2smpl creation from the stranger edge of the Tape Lab catalog. It sounds like someone tried to use Microsoft Word as a DAW and somehow exported a dubstep-techno EP anyway. Cheesy in the best way, produced quickly, and proudly a little ridiculous, META4LYFE leans into crunchy digital textures, off-kilter rhythms, and the kind of accidental futurism that makes early internet-era music feel weirdly timeless.
The project pulls from Caspa-inspired dubstep, 90s nostalgia, and Detroit-focused techno, but filters it all through Tape Lab’s outsider approach to electronic music. This is not polished club music. It is more like a bootleg operating system teaching itself how to rave. META4LYFE captures Tape Lab’s love of strange sound design, quick-hit production, underground dance music, and the beautiful chaos that happens when a track is finished before anyone has time to overthink it.
