Aeon

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

Vestigial - Aeon (New Sun Recordings)


Highly promising debut EP from this new Italian dark ambient project, aesthetically not too far away from the likes of Inade and Predominance. 4 tracks of sinister cosmic howls and drones. Mastered by Andreas Wahnmann (Turbund Sturmwerk / First Law / Loki Foundation) at SecretLab.

(3"CD-R, pro-printed gatefold sleeve, $9.00)

Vresnit - Tunvet (Vegvisir)


New album by the head of the Vetvei label, known for its solid roster of shamanistic ambient releases. The 36-min track presented here delves into the same nocturnal and wooded atmospheres explored in his collaborations with Kshatriy and Hladna, where every creak, rustle and echo in the mist conveys the primal forces of nature.

(CD, 6-sided digisleeve, to be restocked soon)

TaeT

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

Vresnit & Kshatriy - TaeT (Vetvei)


One single 48 min piece of primordial ambient that merges field recordings, woodwinds, strings, bird songs, voices, tape noises and electronics into a shamanistic haze of ritual drone. Absolutely mandatory for listeners of Lunar Abyss Deus Organum and Halo Manash.

(CD, 7"-sized oversized 6-panel cardboard sleeve, to be restocked soon)

The Black Box Aesthetic

Wilt - The Black Box Aesthetic (Rectrix)


Label info: "Dark experimental soundscapes amidst a sea of ambient moans and abstract compositions. A vision of a lost, beautiful mindset."

When Spiders Learn To Fly

Wilt - When Spiders Learn To Fly (By Blade Records)


Along with "Blackenvelope", this is one of Wilt's finest efforts so far and evokes the serenity of a chemically-induced coma. In James Keeler's own words: "8 tracks of depressed analog torture and smoldering smokestacks of filthy black clouds, live improvised, composed, scarecrow dark noise".

Xiphoid Dementia - Embalmed In Purity (Existence Establishment)


Full-length release from this US project run by the person behind the Blood Ties zine. Over an hour's worth of dynamic ambient noise with a nice level of detail and variation. Comes in a nicely illustrated DVD jewel case.

(CD-R, DVD jewel case, $11.00)

Star Autopsy

Zoät·Aon - Star Autopsy (Aural Hypnox)


With a handful of releases, Aural Hypnox have established themselves as a source for high-quality innovative output in the saturated field of dark ambient, and these releases aren't shy when it comes to moving into new territories.
Zoät-Aon's debut release confirms this with a rich and dynamic sound that could be better described as field recordings on alien planets. Floating above the stratosphere at times, zooming in on the growling fauna roaming the surface at others, the 9 tracks here have an organic, living quality to them that warrants repeated listening sessions for amateur exobiologists of the mind.

The Triplex Bestial

[mp3 ] [ mp3 ] [ mp3 ]

Zoät·Aon - The Triplex Bestial (Aural Hypnox)


While tempted to reuse the press release, the Triplex Bestial is of such ferocious and arcane beauty that it deserves at the very least a write-up of its own. Zoät·Aon's first album brought out the cries of alien landscapes, but this one evokes an alchemy of earthly and cosmic origins, with familiar sounds punctuated by unnameable howls. The entire album radiates the primal energy of starlit rituals, ancestral forces and fear-stricken animals. It's going to be hard to out-do this.

(CD, oversized gatefold sleeve, $13.00)
