The MÖBIUS cycle
The four-part cycle in progress, released in turns: MÖB, I, US (LP scheduled for January 2027), and a fourth LP titled MÖBIUS, planned with no date announced. Named on Moonlight Beach in 2023.
This page covers the planned four-part cycle as a whole. It is the umbrella, not an album: the intended shape is MÖB → I → US → MÖBIUS, released in turns. MÖB and I are finished LPs. US is in progress: chapter EPs are on streaming, and the full LP is scheduled for January 2027. The fourth turn, the LP titled MÖBIUS, is planned, with no date announced.
Named on Moonlight Beach
The cycle was named on Moonlight Beach (2023), the precursor record rather than a turn. Track ten, the closer, is möbius . spuǝ ʇᴉ ʍoɥ ʇoN: “How to NOT use it” upside-down. The 2018 Ventura-pier spoken coda ends with one word: Möbius.

The stated goal for the fourth turn: loop in the whole Scoobert history, the broader network, and the other works, and blend what is fact and what is fiction. Luke’s shorter line for it: “MÖB / I / US generated the material. MÖBIUS gets to eat it.” The earlier records become sample material for the one that closes the loop. Two figures from the fiction network are already attached to it: Burt Cashman, a major character on the record and a credited performer on it, and cawleen, a character on it and a credited artist. Both are introduced on the MÖBIUS page. Nothing from it is released, so nothing from it is described here.
