Kscope

Kscope is a London-based label specializing in the progressive genre of current music. Launched in 2008, it is a division of Snapper Music, one of the industry's most respected and influential independent labels.

With an impressive roster of talented artists, Kscope has become synonymous with innovative and boundary-pushing music. The label prides itself on discovering and nurturing unique talents who are pushing the boundaries of what is possible within their respective genres.

From *Steven Wilson* to *Anathema*, *TesseracT* to *The Pineapple Thief*, Kscope represents some of the most exciting and critically acclaimed acts in contemporary music. With a focus on quality over quantity, each release from Kscope is carefully curated to ensure that it meets the high standards set by the label.

30 years ago, a certain shy boy fascinated by the works of Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis and Tangerine Dream, locked himself up in his room &amp; started to think up his original music stories. He recorded them on cassette tapes, created covers for them and arranged them on the shelf next to those of his masters. 30 years later, when the world was taken over by a pandemic and an international lockdown, Mariusz was beamed back to his childhood bedroom, where he was reading and drawing comic books, playing games, listening to lots of music from cassette tapes and recording his own electronic sounds. "Why not do it again?" he thought to himself, feeling inspired. "Why not create a new project where I will play only the keyboards? And why not sing it just like I used to when I was a kid? Simply 'Mariusz Duda'".

And that's exactly what he did. Between 2020 and 2021, he recorded and released online three electronic albums that make up the "Lockdown Trilogy".

Claustrophobic Universe is not an album inspired by books about astronomy and astrophysics. It's an album about a journey into our mind. The universe here is a metaphor for our escape from reality, escape to the place where we soothe our response to stimuli.
