In February, Hanover-based Turnland Records released a charity compilation, 'Solidarity is a Weapon,' whose proceedings have gone to Rote Hilfe E.V organization. This organization focuses on the financial and legal support of left activists who face repression in Germany and helps antifascists searching for political asylum in Germany.
We were excited to be part of the initial release of the compilation with premiering Vril & His Master's Voice as Adderall - Cryosleep, and are super happy to shine a light on this excellent release with the video premiere of the haunting tune' 4444' by an incredibly talented artist from Hanover, Age Eternal. In this video, Age Eternal collaborated with another great talent from Germany, movie director and photographer Nikita Von Teickenberg.

Here is what Nikita said about her creative process behind the making of this video: ‘Lissa (Age Eternal) told me how she works in her creative process, that she works more intuitively and that the words come out of her by chance and she is more concerned with the atmosphere. That the words or concepts reflect what is going on in her. I tried to visualize that atmosphere.  Lissa's way of working is similar to my own. I let myself go completely to the track and filmed it with a VHS camera from the 90s. This created glitches that I crafted by hand while listening to Lissa's track. So I was able to create a large glitch archive that I associated with past snapshots in order to visualize another emotional level.’
