The Geometry of Coincidence

Coming January 2026

The new Random Rab album arrives in early 2026, marking a fresh chapter in sound and storytelling. I’m honored once again to feature cover art by the incomparable Android Jones, whose work continues to elevate the music beyond the sonic realm. The artwork depicts a figure reaching toward “the source,” unaware that he is already dissolving into it—a visual meditation on life’s cyclical nature and the paradox of seeking the mysteries of existence while being intrinsically woven into them.

The album unfolds in four movements, naturally aligned with the four sides of the double vinyl:

  1. Joy (Dusk)

  2. Club Set (Dark)

  3. Deep (Dawn)

  4. Beauty (Day)

Section 1 opens with music centered on movement, familiarity, and uplifting tracks inspired in part by African soukous, progressive house and other celebratory dance traditions. These songs are meant to spark joy and forward motion.

Section 2 carries the energy into the late-night realm. Music built for immersive club systems and festival nights, highlighting the beauty of darkness and the connective force found within it.

Section 3 slows the pace and deepens the introspection. These pieces invite internal exploration and feature several cherished collaborators:

  • CloZee, who co-produced and performed guzheng on The Crown

  • Me~She (Michele Rodriguez), who appears on The Crown, Taker of Sound, and select passages of Nocturnal Mirage

  • Lapa (Ilya Goldberg), who contributed production and violin to Sumbra

  • Members of Lift the Spirit Choir: Deborah Clendenning, Andrea Enright, Marissa Kinsley, Elle Logan, David Meehan, Leigh Orne, Roy Willey, and Evan Williams who contributed to Taker of Sound

Section 4 closes the journey with a set of gentler compositions—music for soft landings, reflection, and return.
