Sound In Silence is proud to welcome back Panoptique Electrical, presenting his new album Decades (2001-2021), an era-spanning compilation of ambient works, experimental scores and soundtracks.

This is his fourth album on the label after the highly acclaimed Disappearing Music For Face in 2016, Quiet Ecology in 2017 and Five Pianos in 2020.

For over twenty years Jason Sweeney, based on Kaurna Country in South Australia, has been composing and recording either solo, in various electronic bands (Other People’s Children, Pretty Boy Crossover) and under the composer alias of Panoptique Electrical. He has also been directing and creating interactive works for the internet, making experimental films, curating projects for galleries and theatre spaces and has collaborated with and composed for some of Australia’s leading performing arts companies, artists and organisations.

Decades (2001-2021), Panoptique Electrical’s eighth full-length album, spans 20 years of compositions over 70 minutes and 31 tracks. Starting in 2001, with pieces made from lo-fi synth drones, sampled loops and broken pianos, taking us through to more recent works featuring layered atmospheric strings, processed piano, field recordings, cinematic cello performed by frequent collaborator Zoë Barry and cut-up vocal pieces performed by Caroline Daish, Decades (2001-2021) perfectly blends melancholic ambient music, modern classical composition, experimental electronics and evocative soundscapes.
Exquisitely mastered by Room40’s Lawrence English, Decades (2001-2021) is an epic, but personal, record that takes us into the emotional landscape of Sweeney’s compositional world.

This is a limited edition of 200 handmade and hand-numbered collectible copies. It is packaged in a lovely hand-stamped 127mm x 127mm 250 gsm smoky grey recycled cardboard envelope with the front cover image printed on a polaroid style photo paper and three insert sheets containing tracklist and information, two printed on a 170 gsm dusty pink cardboard and one on a 120 gsm cream recycled cardboard. It also comes bundled with a download code coupon and a Sound In Silence card.

Let Us Wander

"Departure is how the act of moving from one place to another begins. This is a station of passage, an abandoned station you see through the window while you’re travelling to another town. It’s an isolated place, vanishing in the mist, where few voices are heard and a train is passing by. All is immersed in the ambience of a particular Autumn day; a soft rain starts pouring down while all our feelings are flowing freely."

All tracks written and produced by Pasquale Riviezzo

Snowfall in the Rokoš mountains

Snowfall in the Rokoš mountains (New Song 2025)

Ось імпровізація про війну в Україні, у якій українська армія має змогу здобути перемогу; зосереджена навколо відомого гасла «Слава Україні». Мелодія описує страждання солдатів, численні смерті, але також силу та віру в перемогу!


Here is an improvisation about the war in Ukraine, in which the Ukrainian army is allowed to triumph; centered around the well-known slogan 'Slava Ukraini'.  The melody describes the suffering of the soldiers, the many deaths, but also the strength and faith to overcome!

Hierbij een improvisatie over de oorlog in Oekraïne, waarbij het leger van Oekraïne mag overwinnen; rondom de bekende kreet "Slava Ukraini". De melodie beschrijft het lijden van de  soldaten, de vele sterfgevallen, maar ook de kracht en het geloof om te overwinnen!

Hatched Threads

An arrangement for Classical Guitar of Purcell's "When I am Laid" taken from his opera "Dido and Aeneas." Hauntingly beautiful, it is constructed from a repeating bass line or ground bass. The sheet music is available for free at ClassicalGuitarEditions.com

Dido's Lament or "When I Am Laid"

Classically trained pianist. I enjoy playing not only the traditional repertoire but also pieces from unusual composers.
