Leaving the genre explorations of previous releases behind, with his latest full-length, Houston-based producer-composer Rabit has rendered a work formed purely through abstract synthesis and collage, gobbling up a heavy dose of Jodorowskian spiritualism on the way. As a result, the compositional design of Life After Death is both chaotic and conceptual. As it progresses through a dozen brief but meticulously assembled collages, it's frequently difficult not to think of calendars and clocks, and there is a cyclical implication to this ….
Rabit's third album liberally samples Seeds Of Destiny. It's an Oscar-winning propaganda film that highlighted the plight of European refugees, particularly children, in the aftermath of World War II. It was meant to generate support for the United Nations' humanitarian work in Europe. But instead of projecting hope, Seeds Of Destiny carried a stark tone.
