In 2017, Beijing-based electronic producer thruoutin released his debut release on RAN MUSIC titled Contingent of Outlying Territory. The eight-track EP, filled with vibrant footwork beats, manipulated field recordings, and vintage synths, was a milestone for the artists as it was his first full release on an entirely Chinese run label. After the album’s release, thruoutin did several notable performances showcasing the new material, such as Zhangbei Festival, Wetware, and Boiler Room China. A featured artist EP, curated by RAN MUSIC, followed up the initial release and contained songs by J-Fever, Diva Li, and more. Two music videos were also put out for the track Exploring the Interior and Setting off into the New. The release has remained in its digital state since being put out on RAN MUSIC. A physical component for EP’s digital release was due to accompany it, but setbacks and delays hindered completion until now. Jingweir is enthusiastically proud to announce the reissue of Contingent of Outlying Territory in its intended form. Included in this iteration is both the original eight-track EP and its respected featured artist track. Not to mention new and never before heard narration of the album's fictitious travel log in English and Mandarin. All of which comes as a cassette and zine pack complete with a digital download request slip. 

This deluxe reissue of Contingent of Outlying Territory will be available for purchase on March 6th, 2021. All tracks from the EP will be performed live by thruoutin with support by Kaize and graciously hosted by nugget records.
