LILLIT VEGA
Lillit Vega does not make background music.
Operating out of the raw edges of the Armenian electronic underground, she handles frequencies like currency and lyrics like a ledger. Her sound is a direct collision of clinical, heavy modular beats, low-slung basslines, and stark spoken-word poetry that refuses to compromise. Step into the stream, or get out of the way.

“I owe this world a lot of revenge, and my music is how I’m going to get it”
Transmit 1. L Vega
Discovered in the deeper pocket folders of the master drive, Lillit arrived at DarkArc Studios right here in Florence via the raw edges of the Armenian electronic underground and her maternal roots in Sicily. This cross-contamination of landscapes bleeds directly into her sonic architecture—combining a stark, continental minimalism with a deep, volcanic undercurrent.
Her work functions as a heavy, uncompromising statement on autonomy and feminine reclamation. There is no sentimentality here; her poetry handles themes of power, survival, and retribution like a cold ledger.
Piecing together tracks using boutique analog synthesis, late-night tape loops, and a razor-sharp vocal delivery that cuts clean through the static, she tracks the exact friction between industrial machinery and human consequence.
Lillit remains the definitive blueprint for the Tapes’ sound archive: radical, refined, and entirely dangerous.
”I’m still so thrilled to be the first release from The Tapes” says Lillit. “They don’t filter, sand down edges or talk you down from the ledge. I came to Florence with just a cloud full of beats and dozens of handwritten lyrics, and yet here we are.”

The Great CollideHer
#DarkArc 001
A claustrophobic, heavy mid-tempo transmission that stalks the line between electronic confession and psychological warfare. Built around an uncompromising, cyclic bassline and sharp vocal fragments, The Great CollideHer documents the exact moment two identities smash together in the dark.
An architecture of paranoia, designed to be played incredibly loud.
I think I know a girl, but I’m sure I’m nothing like her.
It’s an easy mistake when I’m stood right beside her.
She’s the one with secrets falling right outside her —
She’s the one they whisper is The Great CollideHer
Holiday
#DarkArc 012
The inverse of the archive. Holiday takes a baseline of pure revenge and strips it down into a hypnotic, relentless post-punk stepper. Rolling across the spiky, insistent rhythm lies a permanent departure—a sonic resignation letter to a toxic lover. Simply put, "The rest of my life is a holiday."
It’s a clean break flex committed to tape.
Deep down I knew I’d make my way away
From the things you do and the things you say
All the things you tried to make me stay
The rest of my life is a holiday
