The Endless Tea Rooms In Abstract Western
It all started on October 16, 2025, on an international Discord server focused on experimental music. There, I asked several musicians if they would like to be part of this project. After a subsequent draw for the album's theme, six people decided to participate in the project "The Endless Tea Rooms In Abstract Western" – namely: Chromarius, Patricidal Jubliee, Zeph!, u_u*, Iyro, The Icebreaker, and of course myself, HïdeѲut. The goal I came up with and assigned was to create a song of any genre, but everyone had to project their idea of what the theme or idea of "The Endless Tea Rooms In Abstract Western" means or represents to them. The song also included a short interlude. It was actually a so-called "SoundJam" – we had a month to complete this project.

After completing all the songs, we held a streamed listening party for all of our songs (which we hadn't heard until that day). This was followed by the visual part of the album. The hand-painted cover of the album was created by the renowned Czech conceptual and visual artist Jiří Černický and then graphically processed by the Czech graphic designer and emerging fashion designer Haruhi_Tan. Jiří Černický created the album under the same assignment: "What do you imagine when you hear the phrase The Endless Tea Rooms In Abstract Western?" The album cover is also inspired by 1980s art—specifically, the poster "Store Automation Show 1986," which was submitted by the author u_u* as a design.
In conclusion, a total of seven musicians participated in the creation of this unusual album: two from the Czech Republic (HïdeѲut, Iyro), two from Canada (Patricidal Jubilee, Chromarius), and three from the USA (Zeph!, u_u*, The Icebreaker).
