Aquarian announces debut album 'The Snake That Eats Itself'

Aquarian is releasing his debut full-length 'The Snake That Eats Itself' via Bedouin Records on February 14 next year.

It marks his first solo outing since the ‘Quiet Time’ mixtape in 2016, and also follows on from two collaborative EPs released alongside Deapmash as AQXDM on Bedouin and Houndstooth which have been a fixture of Aphex Twin sets.

Across 10 tracks, the album explores a range of hybrid sounds, spanning sinister, industrial soundscapes, thrashing techno packed full of pacey percussion, leftfield ambient, and more.

The art direction was overseen by Sougwen Chung, who has also worked with Aquarian on a live A/V show.
