Zen Lu, experimental musician and sound artist, hosted and founded We Play!Records,and he is the founder of Neo Sound group,is now working and living in Shenzhen,China. In the past few years, while insisting on independent solo composing, Zen Lu founded and joined in several local musical outfits. In 2002, he founded a post-rock group “Consciousness”. In 2004, he joined YOUNG CRAZY, and it was there he developed a huge interest in the genres of experimental electronica and industrial noise. In April 2006, he formed ZenBOBO and by that time he has become totally engrossed in composing minimalist/ambient music. In September 2006, he collaborated with Polish experimental musician Grzegorz Bojanek and formed ChoP, from which an album is to come out. In the future series of release of ChoP, two musicians of different nationalities will be invited to join in composing for each release. In May 2007,he founded Skybox duo with Dickson Dee.

Almost Tomorrow is the third full length collaboration album from Section 27 Netlabel founders Tam Ferrans and Andrew Paterson, under their Nonima & theAudiologist guise. This time around the sound is more melodic, and has a definite feeling of a complete and more mature sound than heard on the previous LP's "Dystopian Battle Hymns" and "Ceremony After Amputation". If you are familiar with their individual projects you may even be in for a slight surprise, as the tracks are not as beat driven like before, but are more atmospheric and sound, well... "bigger". In its 75 minutes, Almost Tomorrow takes you on a trip from the digital rain-soaked cavernous scraping in "Thoughtograph", the ethereal beat jittering of "The Colour of Rain", intercepted transmissions from unknown places in "Com-Intercept", "Ganzfeld"s huge yet strangely insect-like beats until everything you knew comes crashing around you in "Almost Tomorrow". Burning pianos, glitched out soundscapes and intricately programmed beatplay, this may well be their best work to date. Consider it the soundtrack to a rainy overcast day, but with just that glimmer of sunshine peeking from the clouds. "Almost Tomorrow" wears its heart on its sleeve.
