Lumens was an experimental analog/electronic trio from Austin, Texas, formed by Survive's Adam Jones, Jon Slade and Daniel Hipólito. They released one album on Holodeck back in 2012, and, as a band, vanished until 2023, when Daniel decided to dust off Lumens' old and forgotten recordings to create this compilation of sorts. Released via Qui Mal, the album features drafts from their unfinished second album, demos and other rough cuts that were recorded between 2011 and 2015. Despite the apparent randomness, they form a surprisingly compelling project, immersed in synth-based drones and jazz-infused ambient textures.
