Epilogue

Ruptured World returns with a second "Rituals" album of instrumental tracks, combining space ambient with radio art and occasional flurries of trumpet sounds with enigmatic field recordings.

The void of the stars is not an empty one. It is a thriving vessel of cosmic bodies and the unaccountable vastness of the ultra-deep field.

"Void Rituals" imagines the visions of the Seers of ancient pasts and unknown futures, projecting their mind's eye into the scattered minutia of the spacetime continuum.

They invoke the enchantments of the arcane scripts of "The Book of Origins" and recite the edicts drawn from the legacies of the First Gazers Upon the Pavilion.

They are the archivists of an old yearning—the legislators of untold dreamscapes—privy to the secret motions of distant worlds and the ways of the gods who oversee them.

Ruptured World - Void Rituals - 10 The Phobetor Signals

From the frozen ruins of forgotten realms to the endless skies of alien worlds, OrchraX invites you into a saga where fantasy and science fiction collide. Inspired by the grandeur of Skyrim and the vastness of Halo, this album blends orchestral power with ambient mysticism, creating a soundtrack for a roleplay game that exists only in imagination.

Opening with “The First Legend”, a spoken-word prologue delivered with the weight of ancient prophecy, the journey unfolds across cinematic soundscapes: battles fought beneath shattered moons, ruins echoing with the voices of the past, and destinies written among the stars.

This is more than music — it is a tale told in sound, crafted for dreamers, gamers, and seekers of other worlds. Step beyond the stars, and let the legend begin.

The Frozen Citadel

Let me introduce you to my new side project: AWAKINO. An amusement park for electronic experiments – more rhythmical structures, occasional club references, straight from my e-smogplayground studio.

Digital-only, spontaneous, often just sketches – raw and imperfect. Flirting with Synthi-Pop at times – but always a bit weird around the edges.

Here’s the very first EP, uploaded straight to Mirlo – a charming alternative platform beside the big players. Cheers.

Reminisce – Barry Kernachan

Four years ago, the California based musician r beny came on the radar with numerous videos on youtube and instagram in which he explored the world of tape and sound synthesis. You could easily see his music growing and pretty soon he came to the fore as a master in modular synthesis. 

This culminated in several solo releases and live shows (e.g. with Bing & Ruth, Suzanne Ciani). Herein, r beny, clearly showed his capacities to combine detailed and fragile melodies with subtle textures in order to create sonic narratives with a highly emotional character.
 
“Echo's Verse” forms no exception on that regard and continues along the same melancholic lines of his previous work. However, whereas the initial albums were much more centred around feelings of loneliness, isolation and solitude, the new album clearly moves away from a sole focus on sad and distressing emotions. “Echo's Verse” touches the other side of the spectrum as it is about emotional connections, bonds and not feeling alone in the universe.

“Echo's Verse” will be out on May 15th on heavyweight clear vinyl* and comes with original handprinted artwork by Femke Strijbol. In addition to the regular version, there will also be a special edition (30 copies) including a unique 1-minute tape loop alongside the record.

WHERE WE WERE [CD|2xLP|DIGITAL]

“WHERE WE WERE”, the new album from GREG HAINES, may come as a surprise upon first listen. The cascading strings that played such an important role in his prior work have disappeared, and in there place are intricate layers of tape-worn synthesizers. Any recordings of piano have been transformed and affected until their sound is at times barely recognizable. Moments of quiet, slowmoving textures can still be found, but they are nestled between upbeat, rhythmically-driven tracks that at times could even be considered for deployment on open-minded dancefloors. Although taking a year to complete, the nature of this record is born in its spontaneity and impulsiveness. The acoustic instruments such as piano, vibraphone and other percussion that found there way on to the album were not the result of months of composing - rather they were entirely improvised and often left completely unedited and raw. At first the idea was these rough tracks, full of noises and hiss, would later be re-recorded, but as the process drew on, it became clear that these kind of loose, half-thought moments were what defined the album - often “out-oftime” or “out-of-tune”, but always adding another dimension to the hazy, analog world of sound. This hand-crafted approach led to almost everything being constructed in the old-fashioned way; not with mouse-clicks, but with two hands moving dials and everything running to an aged tape machine.

This album is the result of one person sitting alone in a room and creating something entirely personal, without the frustrations of organising large-scale sessions for other players or the laborious work of preparing scores. In fact, the few scored moments that were written were later disregarded, with a whole string session with PETER BRODERICK ending up on the cutting-room floor (sorry, Peter!), along with endless hours of other material. What is left is the condensed diary of a year of exploring old tape delays, analog synths and percussion - some of which played by percussionist/composer SYTZE PRUIKSMA (a member, along with Haines, of THE ALVARET ENSEMBLE, whose debut album was released in December 2012 by Denovali Records), and some of which played and recorded in a midnight daze at Haines' studio in Berlin. Working in this way led to a whole host of other long-term influences feeding into the music that had never found an outlet before. The experiments in dub conducted by the likes of KING TUBBY or LEE PERRY and continued by the likes of RHYTHM & SOUND had a profound effect, as did the iconic work of TONY ALLEN and other African composers. The spaced-out soundscapes found on early TANGERINE DREAM and KLAUS SCHULTZE had always had a subtle influence on Greg's work, but now armed with an arsenal of dusty studio toys, those sounds became warmer, richer and more prominent.

The influences evoked here may at first appear at odds with Greg's previous work, but an affinity between the dense poly-rhythms of Africa and beyond have long been an influence for contemporary composers such as STEVE REICH, and their reach and importance on western music is undeniable. But now the lines have been blurred, and its impossible to say where one “style” or influence stops and another begins – something that was perhaps the only concept for this record. The symphonic synth crescendo of “So it Goes” would not have the same impact if it were not following the head-nodding drive of “Something Happened”. The delicate arpeggios of “Wake Mania Without End II” only exaggerate the unrelenting, rhythmical explosion of “Habenero”, and without starting with the intimate piano of “The Intruder”, the album's cavernous ending wouldn't feel so otherworldly. Its all in there or at least whats left of it after the hiss, the dirt and the degradation of the tape machine destroyed it, reworked it, and spat it back out fullyformed.

Mixed and mastered together with NILS FRAHM at his Durton Studio, Berlin.
