  • French-British Artist LX8 Releases “Ghosts of Sound – TANIT TRANCE ANTHEM”

    French-British Artist LX8 Releases “Ghosts of Sound – TANIT TRANCE ANTHEM”

    LX8 has just released “Ghosts of Sound – TANIT TRANCE ANTHEM”, a euphoric dance track of synth pads, darbouka drum, Berber flute and oud, steeped in the sensory Mediterranean soundscape of ancient Carthage and its Phoenician goddess Tanit. 

    A mystical sonic journey from coastal Lebanon to the Maghreb and the island of Ibiza, immersing listeners into the science fiction world of the alternative history novel series THE PANHARMONION CHRONICLES, created and written by Henry Chebaane, the artist behind the LX8 (Life x Infinity) project.

    This new mix of his cult dance track GHOSTS OF SOUND is an arm-waving, euphoric trance number that comes in two flavours: a six-minute sprawling club mix and a shorter radio edit of four minutes. Both tracks form part of a forthcoming double LP, a concept album steeped in the lore of his graphic novels.

    The song Ghosts of Sound is the title of vol.2 in the graphic novel series, due to be published early 2026 by SUPANOVA MEDIA. This second book and related songs follow on from the acclaimed first novel TIMES OF LONDON, published in 2023.

       THE PANHARMONION CHRONICLES narrate the story of Alex Campbell, a multi-cultural female music composer who struggles with a conflicted identity, a traumatic past and repressed supernatural abilities while fighting a violent supremacist cult through Time.

    In the novel Ghosts of Sound, Alex – a DJ and EDM producer, travels back to the 19th century and uses electronic dance music to boost the courage of a community of immigrants fighting off a tyrannical imperialist power.

    The novel is a blend of science-fiction, horror, and alternative history that invites questions about contemporary social issues; spiced by hints of humour, pop culture and references that will appeal to dance music lovers of all genres.

    LX8 is the musical alias for French-British songwriter, artist, author, filmmaker and designer Henry Chebaane.

    A recent arrival on the EDM scene, LX8 music style defies easy description but can be summarised as a “sonic quest into the human consciousness and the nature of reality.” A fan of house and trance music of the last four decades, LX8 wants to keep these sounds alive and inclusive for a new generation of global listeners from all cultures. 

    The concept double LP is a sonic exploration of The Panharmonion Chronicles story and its speculative universe, blending euphoric trance and melodic techno with dark cinematic drama, layered sound design and experimental synth textures.

    As an award-winning multimedia storyteller, Henry Chebaane also produces and directs his own videos, often set in locations he has designed himself.

    French-British Artist LX8 Shares Afro House Remix of his Single  “Ghosts of Sound” Inspired by his Sci-fi Novel The PanHarmonion Chronicles

    French-British artist LX8 has just released an Afro House remix of his cult dance anthem GHOSTS OF SOUND.

    The hip-swaying uplifting melodic techno track is part of his forthcoming double LP, a concept album steeped in the lore of the graphic novel series THE PANHARMONION CHRONICLES, also created and written by Henry Chebaane, the artist behind the LX8 (Life x Infinity) project.

    The song “Ghosts of Sound” is the title of vol.2 in the graphic novel series, due to be published during Winter 2025 by Supanova Media. This second book and related songs follow on from the first novel TIMES OF LONDON, published in 2023.

    LX8 is the musical alias for French-British songwriter, artist, author and designer Henry Chebaane. Inspired by the example of film director John Carpenter who also produces music and comics, LX8 has started his own musical journey, and “Ghosts of Sound” was his debut single in 2023.

    Since then, he has released several more tracks of dance music with a wide variety of melodic techno vibes.

    His first graphic novel “The Panharmonion Chronicles: Times of London” was published in 2023 by Supanova Media and has become a cult thriller with electronic music fans. His next novel in the same series is “Ghosts of Sound”, which is also the title of a forthcoming double album.

    The concept double LP is a sonic exploration of The Panharmonion Chronicles story and its speculative universe, blending euphoric music and melodic techno with dark cinema.
