We are honored to announce that next year will see the release of Nxlz-U3, a new work by Lithuanian architect-composer Darius Čiūta, published through our sub-label No Records.

With Nxlz-U3, Čiūta continues his singular exploration of sound as an architectural phenomenon — a practice in which silence, micro-gesture, resonance, and spatial tension become the raw materials of construction. His works do not merely unfold; they inhabit, expand, and redefine the listener’s perceptual field.

This forthcoming album stands as one of Čiūta’s most refined examinations of minimal sonic tectonics: layers reduced to their essential states, structures emerging from almost imperceptible shifts, and a sense of intimate vastness that is uniquely his. Nxlz-U3 is less a composition than a site — a meticulously shaped acoustic environment meant not to be consumed but to be entered, inhabited, and lived with.

n Nxlz-U3, Čiūta establishes a delicate equilibrium between intention and emergence, allowing sound to behave almost autonomously while remaining guided by a rigorous conceptual framework. The result is a listening experience that hovers between control and contingency, where each fragment seems to articulate both its independence and its place within a larger, unseen geometry.

This release also represents a significant step in our curatorial evolution at No Records. By presenting Nxlz-U3, we reaffirm our commitment to works that challenge conventional notions of musical form and listening practice. Čiūta’s uncompromising approach resonates deeply with our vision: to offer spaces where sound can reveal its own architecture, and where listeners are invited to engage with attention, patience, and openness.

We look forward to presenting this rare and uncompromising work, an album that embodies the ethos of No Records: attentive listening, conceptual clarity, and artistic integrity.
