Album lore

Rian Treanor’s 2020 album File Under UK Metaplasm arrives on Planet Mu, threading nine tracks through the fractured pulse of IDM, footwork, and singeli. Recorded in the wake of shifting club paradigms, it bends glitch and deconstructed club forms into jittered patterns and abrupt shifts. The opening cut “Hypnic Jerks” sets a tone of restless energy, with fractured rhythms that pivot sharply between dancefloor intent and cerebral abstraction.Treanor’s work here resists easy categorization, assembling fragments of electronic lineage into a dense lattice of sound. Tracks like “Vacuum Angle” and “Opponent Process” excavate the brittle edges of club music, while “Metaplasm” itself offers a brief, disorienting interlude. The record’s tight sequencing and intricate construction mark it as a signal within the UK’s experimental electronic canon of the early 2020s.
