When Wylie Cable isn’t busy running independent LA record imprint Dome of Doom, the venerated producer can be found buried under headphones tinkering away at his own extensive, unabashedly experimental catalog. Now working on his eighth long play, Shimmer, Then Disappear Cable’s latest lands just ahead of the full project’s September 25 debut. Coming by way of Audius, the new single, “The Lure of Personal Success,” gives an tantalizing inside into the rest of the forthcoming LP’s auditory twists and turns.

Akin to the electronic avant gardism one would expect from the likes of Aphex Twin or Daedelus, Cable’s “The Lure of Personal Success,” is a colorful, deeply textured patchwork of sonics that densely incapsulates a wide range of futuristic sounds. Matched with similarly gripping abstract collage work from Dewey Saunders, whose visuals have previously accompanied work by Anderson .Paak, Future, and Griz, Cable’s Shimmer, Then Disppear LP looks to be the producer’s reflective output in response to the monumental shifts the world has experienced in 2020, and ultimately, where we may be headed from here.
