cycle # 17

part of an ongoing secret series of sound experimentation combining elements of field recordings, minimalism & repetition, texture & glitches.

[ 17 ]

Complete dissolution

of all known structures

No longer a distance

to the direct experience

Within the 

indescribable intensity

of a fluid existence

new connections form

opening routes for consciousness to

immerse deeper into the viscera

the Anayatron

forming a nervous system

and a heart 

a portal to Infinity

a rift within the innermost chamber

forever receptive to its

silent emanation

Ancient Skies

Ayaavaaki & Purl - Chambers of Rebirth (Ovum I)

Good morning, and welcome to the quietest week of the year. Did you have a good holiday? Before I sign off for the year, I think I’ve got one more gem to share with you. Here's a wonderful label showcase and a reflection on this past year from a lovely independent Valencia-based imprint, Archives, curated and operated by Agustín Mena, aka Warmth. I’ve profiled plenty of its releases since its inception in 2015, and I must admit that Warmth’s Parallel (2018) has been on repeat more than others. If anything, it is only rivalled by Glow, which is his collaboration with Fionnlagh, recently released on December 8th, 2023 (you’ll hear a few tracks on this mix). In any case, enjoy the mix, and please support the featured artists! For full details and tracklisting, visit Headphone Commute's main site.
