Starting in 2020, the label owners would create [[DYNAMICS]], a new label that would serve as a rebranding after Net Century's inactivity. DYNAMICS would continue publication for a few months before becoming inactive as well. It wouldn't be until August when the label owners revealed their names, including revealing assisted ownership with Astroblur (who handled art direction, layout, and promotional videos) and QUEEN, owner of [[DATALOG]]. The owners also announced they were unsatisfied with the direction of the label. Following this announcement, the label continued publishing, starting by re-uploading all releases from previous sub-labels and the release of [[BETWEEN SPIRITS]].
