Quadeca has formally announced his next album, Life 1, due October 1 through X8 Music, and released the title track 'Life 1 (where did the time go)' as its latest preview. The record follows 2025's Vanisher, Horizon Scraper and has already been teased through 'Dark Magic', 'Baby Steps' and 'Hell of a time'.
The newly released title track throws jazz elements, synthesizers and flamenco-style guitar into the same room and politely declines to explain why they should not get along. A cinematic music video directed by Quadeca and Brendon Burton accompanies the release, expanding his surreal visual universe.
The announcement comes after a major festival stretch that took Quadeca through Fuji Rock, Lollapalooza Chicago and London's All Points East. He will next launch a 22-show North American headline run on October 10 in Mesa, travelling through cities including Dallas, Atlanta, New York, Toronto and Chicago before ending in Los Angeles on November 10, alongside an appearance at Camp Flog Gnaw. For fans of experimental hip-hop and art-pop, Life 1 confirms Quadeca's ongoing habit of defying musical categorization.
