Stream lead single "Accidents" on Spotify. 

His new release is titled "r8c180". The track "Astronauts" will be sure to gain popularity with it's memorable sound scape, which takes the listener on a journey outside of this universe. rx1f describes his music as "music for robots". 

"There are a lot of samples from NASA and other space-related sources on r8c180, you can hear planet sounds on pretty much every track.  My favorite sample was this thing called an earth whistler, which is apparently a radio wave caused by lightning in the atmosphere. It sounds like a quick little filter sweep." says rx1f about his new release.
