Surreal Ambient

Releases

Fragments of Silence

Copy of Sacred Seeds, Synthbiont & Anassimandrus - Fragments of Silence

Noise Ambient

ll tracks on this album were created using analogue media, tape loops, and non-musical noises. Tape and vinyl defects become elements of the composition here. In the modern digital era, people are losing touch with tangible reality and living nature, plunging into an artificial, synthetic, and virtual environment. The naturalness and uniqueness of simple things are becoming rarities.

This album was first released on Élan Vital Recordings on September 1, 2021, then was re-released on Rhymes Music in 2022, and now, slightly reworked (brought to perfection), is finally coming out on Chitra Records.

Lost Rarities

Participation mystique refers to the innate human connection to symbolic and imaginative experiences. This symbolic realm exists before or alongside our ability to think analytically or rationally. The idea is strongly linked to projection, as these symbolic or mythic elements naturally extend themselves into the world around us—into people, places, and things, just like how we unconsciously assign color to what we see.

Participation mystique is not just a psychological concept, but an aesthetic principle – a lens through which we perceive art as more than just something we observe; it becomes something inhabited.

In artistic terms, participation mystique can be thought of as a dissolving boundary between the self and the image. In this perspective, any manifestation of art can be perceived not just as an external object, but as an extension of the viewer’s unconscious. Colors, shapes, and atmosphere resonate with inner archetypes – mythical, primordial, emotional – before the mind can name them. This is why abstract compositions can seem hauntingly familiar, or why certain symbols – like a spiral, a doorway, or a shady forest – draw out something ancient, deep, and unconscious from us.

Participation Mystique

Derek Carter (KapTep) about this release:

Ambient music seems to be fascinated by nature, oceans and the sky. For this KapTep release I wanted to explore the sky and more importantly all we can’t see, the millions of signals and mysteries that it hides.

I wanted to leave room for the songs to breathe and allow plenty of open spaces within them. At times these compositions may seem empty, that is by design. Although the current environment is to pick a track or two add them to your playlist.

I hope you will spend 49 minutes and listen to this as a body of work, as it was recorded to be listened to in one continuous sitting. In addition to the 6 original tracks there are two wonderful remixes added by Arrival In Eden, and Sacred Seeds.

Numbers Station – I’ve always been fascinated with them. The mystery and intrigue.

Naming the Sky – Melancholy drifting and not a care in the world.

LA Scanner – I simply love the voyeur nature of a cheap scanner.

Cold Luck Moon – Blurred images, sounds and emotions. Plus, three words that don’t mean anything together as a title.

I Need Light – In a world of conflict, doom scrolling and fear… I need light. In fact, I think we all do.

One Hundred Miles Until Sunrise – Have you ever driven somewhere and not remembered a second of it? Totally sober, auto-pilot. This is your soundtrack.

Naming the Sky

LA Scanner

Universal Transmission

Ambient minimalism is gaining momentum. Some would argue that evoking atmosphere is harder than sequencing beats, and Fragments of Silence is proof. Laden with lush textures and ambient leanings, the album invites deep listening.

This 8-track LP marks the debut collaboration between Synthbiont, Anassimandrus, and Sacred Seeds: three artists with distinct sensibilities, united by a shared affinity for ambient, experimental, and dub techno sounds. Their convergence sets the tone for a singular, immersive experience.

Fragments of Silence is not background music. It’s a serious body of work that commands attention. It’s an hour-long descent into a vacuum chamber. An environment that evolves, coils, shifts, and builds toward dissonance and stillness.

Each track is grounded in a strong atmospheric character, unfolding with deliberate progression. The album leans heavily into experimental minimalism, imagine dark tunnels, ominous energy fields, and brooding landscapes.

Fragments of Silence is one of those albums that explores the intersection of distinct creative temperaments, marked by structure, mood, and experimentation. The result is an album that flows with intention and feeling, creating a space that listeners can fully sink into.

Description by SreeLakshmy 

Sacred Seeds is an ambient electronic music project by Wasim, founded in 2014 in Calicut, Kerala (India). Blending synthesis, field recordings, and experimental sound design, Sacred Seeds’ music explores the interplay between organic and electronic textures.

Sacred Seeds has performed at renowned festivals such as Magnetic Fields, Hilltop Festival, and Bloom in Green, sharing the stage with influential artists like Gaudi, OTT, Suduaya, and Symbolico, and many more.

Synthbiont & Anassimandrus is the ambient/experimental/dub techno project born at the end of 2018 by the collaboration between Nicolò Faggiani and Tommaso Gobbo. Their musical background comes from different musical experiences as DJs, vinyl collectors, and founders of EMC series. Their performances and music are composed through the elaboration of different digital and analog sources, processed field recordings, and sampling to create unique soundscapes.

Produced and mixed by Nicolò Faggiani and Tommaso Gobbo (Synthbiont & Anassimandrus) (1,2,5,6) and Wasim Raja (Sacred Seeds) (3,4,7,8)

The time for chill

Night And Day

Form is an exploration about how things take shape and slowly change. It paints a quiet, emotional journey — starting with the feeling of something coming to life, then slowly drifting into memory and fading away, time to let go.

Form

Fade Away

A sonic portrait of a city suspended in twilight, it traces the quiet pulse of urban dusk — moody and gently immersive. As the day exhales and the skyline softens, textures emerge — quiet synths, distant echoes, and the hush of passing lives.

Le Code is a French ambient artist known for creating soft atmospheric soundscapes with subtle synthesizer or piano sounds inspired by nature (especially water and the ocean). He also co-founded Mare Nostrum Label, largely continuing the ocean theme.

Something in the Air

Skazka means fairy tale in Russian. Fairytales are more real than modern life, filled with illusory values. A man truly exists only in myth, in a supernatural, mystical reality, and everything else is just an external pursuit of illusory success, which prevents us from being present in the moment, understanding ourselves, and being truly happy.
