While exploring my local woodland during Winter Storm Bobby on 1/29/2022, I noticed a particularly loud and frequent creaking and popping coming from a large, dual-trunked yellow popular, Liriodendron tulipifera.

Upon further inspection, I found the popular was hollow and had a large, vertical crack running about 25' up the trunk. 

I setup my SASS microphone directly in front of the cavity and recorded for about an hour.

Unfortunately, a snow blower polluted most of the recording but I was able to capture about 20 minutes of pure tree creaks and pops! This recording is an excerpt from that longer file.

I plan to revisit this tree during every major wind storm with the hope of capturing the moment that it gives way and returns to the forest floor...stay tuned :)

Thanks for listening ♫

There Are Days That I Don’t

ULVTHARM “Wrëkö” CD / LP / DL (207th Cycle)
We’re honoured to present Ulvtharm’s first solo album. Long time collaborator of Nordvargr & Drakh in the legendary Swedish formation MZ.412, “Wrēkō” was incepted when Ulvtharm lived in Malaysia while remotely writing the “Svartmyrkr” album of MZ.412 in 2018. Since “Svartmyrkr” was written over such a long period of time and over a significant geographical distance, there were natural moments of inspiration that radiated away from the MZ.412 sound, moments captured during the ritual sessions. Listening back to some of the raw demos made at the time, it was obvious that some of the tracks did not line up with MZ.412 spiritually, and the idea for an Ulvtharm solo album was born.
Moving back to Sweden in November 2019, the creative process of dissecting and analyzing the demos started. When the pandemic hit, Jouni was thrown into a sleepless blackness for a long time, a mood that made him see the demos in a different light. This helped with re-composing and recording the missing parts, which were finalised in December 2020.
This album is a deep dive into the mind and psyche during a dark time; it's a revenge on the own self for not taking this creative step before, and a celebration of getting out at the tail end of the modern plague. He’s now letting the music and spirits free out into the world for everyone to see and hear. This is his darkness. This is his revenge. This is Wrēkō!

5. SHALLOW - DEEP

We go about our daily lives without giving it much thought. In the morning, we wake up to the alarm on our smartphones, turn on the tap, wash our faces with the water that comes out, and brush our teeth. We eat breakfast heated in the microwave, oven, or on the stove, and then we take the train or drive to work or school.

If we don't pay attention, the day goes by without us feeling anything special. But this is not the norm. We are just standing on top of the layers of history that our predecessors have gradually accumulated through their wisdom and effort. And we are only part of the layer that the next generation and the generation after that will stand on.

This work imitates the accumulation of such invisible history in sound. The sounds don't build up, just five mundane five-minute drones, but if you pay attention, you'll notice that they change little by little. I believe that to observe this is to see the invisible history and to get to the essence of things.

Winds of Eternity

Hypnosphere explores the surreal, fragmented realm of sleeplessness.
The theme centers around sleep or the haunting absence of it.
Each track captures the haze of exhaustion, the ebb and flow of hallucinations, and the desperate craving for rest that never comes.
It's an intimate journey through the mind's twilight, where the line between dream and waking life dissolves into an otherworldly soundscapes.
