C’est très beau mais on a envie d’entendre les pièces dans leur construction, pourquoi  n’avoir mis que des extraits les uns au bout des autres ? En tous cas je sens cette recherche très proche de la mienne.

Side by Side is a compilation of rare and unreleased tracks by Noir Age artists' side projects. This compilation commemorates the 50th release from the Noir Age label. The sides of the tape are split into North, East, South, and West.

Our family of outer-sound practitioners living and working within a darkened hue of sonic mind alteration. Textures and patterns, apparition and essence, temper and love, streaks of night rain and shards of sunlight, rooms and machines, under noiseless clouds at the very edge of things. This is Side By Side.

A very special thanks to all the artists and listeners who have made this possible with their continued support.

Three Euclidean Rhythms [disquiet0567]

Schism

Field recording based composition by Alëna Korolëva, with voice of Eki Shola.

Recorded in marble quarries near Borba, Portugal, October 2022.

Strange but true fact: mining is responsible for nearly half of the world’s economy. The history of mining around the world can be read in the open scars that have been left when the sought after resource has been extracted. In these wounds, often larger-than-life pits abandoned by humans, new forms of life have gathered. Inverted Mountains is a documentary record of one of these spaces. 

Portugal’s Borba Region is rich in marble, 400 pit mines dot the landscape, all but 50 are abandoned. In 2018 a wall of one of the biggest quarries collapsed and buried five people in a landslide.

This track offers a detailed examination of sunset at the bottom of the pit, four years after the accident. Pigeons circle in the lower levels, offering a sound of wings, while starlings and swallows gather near the mouth of the pit, 50 meters above. The natural echoing acoustics of the steep walls allow each bird cry to resonate in a living delay, as if there were thousands not hundreds of birds gathering here. At the very end, the lonely bird song is echoed by a human voice, calling out in a plaintive wordless cry, the ghost of all those whose lives were lost in this forsaken place.

LLYN Y CWN - 'Megaliths' CD

Step into the shadows of ancient mysticism as Llyn Y Cwn, the maestro of Welsh dark ambient, unveils the mesmerising odyssey that is "Megaliths". A profound exploration of the sacred resonance embedded within stone circles, capturing years of field recordings from the silent and enigmatic monuments that stand as timeless witnesses to the ebb and flow of existence.

Ben Powell has crafted a sonic voyage that mirrors the sacred spaces marked by stoic pillars of rock, each track representing a specific site. Delving deep into the esoteric significance of stone circles, the album portrays these structures not merely as historical relics but as religious ceremonial sites where the veil between our world and the eternal realm becomes tantalisingly thin.

Extracting ambient soundscapes from burial chambers, Ben has utilised convolution reverbs to replicate the ominous ambiance of these ancient spaces. A veteran of stone circle exploration, Ben's decades-long journey has yielded field recordings that capture the haunting whispers of wind and the solemn caws of crows, enveloping the listener in a ghostly atmosphere that transcends the ordinary.

Guided by the wisdom found in Julian Cope's "The Modern Antiquarian" and Aurbrey Burl's "A Guide to the Stone Circles of Britain", Llyn Y Cwn embarks on a sonic pilgrimage across the country, exploring the remote bleakness of these sites. The album transitions from the cramped, gloomy chambers of tombs to the unroofed, wide rings - a journey from darkness to light, from the dead to the living, and from the grave to the sky.

"Megaliths" is a ritual, a sonic séance that beckons listeners to commune with the ancient energies that saturate these sacred circles - an atmospheric descent into the heart of mysterious realms, where the boundaries between the earthly and the spiritual blur into an indistinguishable, haunting atmosphere. Embrace the darkness, and let the stones speak. The journey begins now.

CD presented in a 6-panel flood-printed digipak with breathtaking photography by the artist. Out 29th March 2024.
