AD LUX TENEBRAE: SKETCHES FROM THAT AUTUMN, CD-R
(Abgurd)
The first official release of Ural project AD LUX TENEBRAE (TOWARDS THE
LIGHT OF DARKNESS) consists of recordings made during "That Autumn". The
main style of ALT's playing is shamanic, ritual Drone\Dark Ambient,
performed (mostly) & fixed with improvised means in a hut in the midst
of Ural forest. Some tracks can be a perfect soundtrack for `The Blair
Witch Project` movie. ALT uses hand-made instruments - a violin with
springs instead of strings, which is played with a bow of steel - field
recordings, fixed in the forests, swamps and villages of Ural. Harp,
acoustic & bass guitars, vocals & voices, as well as old recordings with
folk-songs of Bashkir nation were used. Very potent & original album
with strong taste of muskarine, fragrance of autumn forest and fierceful
mesmerism. [Abgurd]

FIRE IN THE HEAD: MEDITATE/MUTILATE, CD
(Eibon)
The straightjacket has been removed, the medication has worn off and the
delusions have intensified. F/I/T/H has returned to spread the poison
with “Meditate/Mutilate”, a schizophrenic and volatile mix of seething,
harsh electronics, dark ambience and tortured vocals. From the blackest
depths of neurosis to the apex of unrestrained psychosis, the ten tracks
on this cd hone F/I/T/H’s dual-edged blade to perfection.

The assault has just begun. There's a world out there. Prepare to
bleed.[Eibon Records]

MUSTERION: THE BLACK LODGE, CD
(Horus CyclicDaemon)
"The Black Lodge", a world beyond, is the place were Agent Dale Cooper

P. Lovecraft and more. The Agent possesses the body of the late Jerzy
Grotowski as he do his last journey among the walking dead. The visions
of Cooper are seen, heard and felt in this avant-garde and exquisitely
dark ambient album from Musterion, Simon AA Kölle (Za Frûmi, Abnocto).
The Black Lodge is a place of murder, dreams, mystery, darkness, ancient
machines, old memories and horror. A shrieking violin swells into a
chaotic babel of sound; a pandemonium that would have lead most men to
doubt their own shaking sanity. Inarticulate cries that only mutes can
utter, and that rises only in moments of the most terrible fear or
anguish. With extreme attention to details this profound opus of the
mind leads the listener away from the normal world and into the world of
the Black Lodge. Garmonbozia! [Horus CyclicDaemon]

OLHON: SINKHOLE, CD

A cooperative effort of Massimo Magrini (mastermind of the genious BAD
SECTOR) and Zairo (of the ultra-obscure dark ambient travellers WHERE).
"Sinkhole" was composed using original field recordings taken (mainly
underwater) in the "Pozzo del Merro", the world's deepest sinkhole. The
result is an extremely organic, almost "breathing" dark ambient journey.
Very challenging, that's for sure.....

sound of the earth's depths. [Eibon Records]

RORICAT: UKI UKI, CD
(Horus CyclicDaemon)
Russian duo consisting of Eugene & Julica make spacey, abstract
instrumentals. Heavily delayed guitar strumming, accompanied by various
random sounds and minimal hand drum percussion. Light & airy ambient
guitars with subtle rhythms. Very relaxing yet propagates passion.
A strange odd ditty, acoustic guitars, tiny cutesy little lead synth and
sometimes an itty bitty Power Puff girl vocal. Gurgles, burps and blips.
It's great to hear synths playing nice with guitars. The definition of
quirky this is. Indescribable stylistically.
More strangeness, more quality, more inventiveness. Very unique sound! A
bit like David Bowie's "Sound and Vision" (Low).
Beautiful noise. Fascinating cinematigraphic, chaotic dream of drones
and distortions with ambient, multidimensional, psychedelic, ironic, and
hypnotic guitars.
All friends of electronics will be pleased by this amazing dada-like
music from the very north of Siberia... [Horus CyclicDaemon]

ZOÄT·AON: THE TRIPLEX BESTIAL, CD
(Aural Hypnox)
By the careful adjustment and manipulation of both modern and archaic
mediums is created a highly dynamic work of aural alchemy depicting the
trance and dream of a carnal totem standing between Heaven and Earth,
where the unearthly sound of starlight's serpentine arteries winding
together with the blackened branches above mingles with the oneiric
hisses and crackles of necromantic phantoms and slithering roots below.
A barbarous, sonic paradox suggesting the subtle arousal of the ancestry
in flesh, a work both soothing and threatening to the intuitive mind.
(total time: 61:05)
Comes in an oversized 4 panel cardboard covers.

Limited to 1000 copies.

PRICE: 12 € / $
