VILL4IN

Profile:

Established in 2017 VILL4IN is a collective of artists and a label for electronic music: synthwave, atmosphere, ambient, chillwave, experimental, cyperpunk, dreampunk, vaporwave, dreamwave & downtempo. Originally based in Canada, the label moved to the USA between end of 2022 and early 2023.

VILL4IN releases music categorized in series: VOID, MANA, DUSK, CCCP, CNCT, NOIR, PURP, APRIL, 4IN & XXXX (introduced November 2021), ???? & MTHR (added during 2022). The first part of the trilogy TCOC (= The Curse Of Colonialism, originally released on cassette by Celadon Plaza in 2022) was added in March 2023 and is not an original VILL4IN series. It was released by the partner & sub label ASSEMBLY (3). On April 1, 2024 the series Film (4) was added to the catalogue.

Most releases comes with extras like: art magazine, "Mana" trading cards, DVD, holographic stickers, OBI-strip for vinyl records and similar. In October 2020 the label introduced a new OBI-strip version for vinyl records (new version: Voyage Futur - Inner Sphere / old version: Sangam - Taken). VILL4IN also established a packaging design for the MANA trading cards (example Voyage Futur - Inner Sphere) - the so called "booster packs". In October 2020 VILL4IN released their first art book "The Glitch Bible".

With the "Supporters Bundle" packages VILL4IN gives the opportunity to buy a set of the next to-be-released vinyl releases as pre-order-bundle at an discounted early bird price. Artists, titles & series are not fully revealed at this time. To make it more special, the vinyl records that are included comes with a special holographic "Supporters Edition" OBI-strip and in a different vinyl colour, compared to the regular edition. The bundle contains also extra goodies. Later on the supporters bundle received a cat# and series name: ETV-001 (= Enter The Void). In summer 2024 the label announced to stop the supporters bundle and that ETV-006 will be the last bundle.

    If anyone out there is willing to sell their MANA cards, I’m interested. Please contact me. I’m also willing to trade.

      Phenomenal label that sadly can't keep up with demand anymore; if you're not there in the first five minutes a release goes up, you're left to the whims of scalpers.

        Not sure how to go about it, but it would be cool to set up a space to trade MANA cards.
