Silent Storms

Mister Stichs
Release Date: August 24, 2016

An Original 'N'otion Picture Soundtrack by Keith Richie

When a family moves from the quiet suburbs of Downey, California to a remote farmhouse in Texas, they hope for peace and renewal. What they find instead is something far older and more sinister—an unseen force tethered to the land, festering in the silence, unraveling their sanity one thread at a time.

As unease gives way to full-blown horror, they are pulled into a waking nightmare where perception fractures, trust dissolves, and reality becomes twisted beyond recognition. At the center of it all is a malevolent entity—Mister Stichs—a presence that doesn’t merely haunt but hunts.

This cinematic concept album is a dark ambient descent into psychological terror, merging vintage synth horror with modern sound design. Drawing influence from John Carpenter, Tangerine Dream, and the haunting landscapes of classic suspense scores, Mister Stichs delivers an unsettling, immersive experience built on analog textures, spectral atmospheres, and emotionally resonant melodies.

With chilling ambience, bursts of dread, and fleeting glimpses of fragile beauty, Mister Stichs is not just a soundtrack—it’s a sonic horror story.

Critical Praise:

“A sophisticated and unrelenting journey into darkness.”
— Ben Dugas, ZoneMusicReporter.com

“Mister Stichs is impressively reminiscent of a John Carpenter film score, and it evokes the spirit of Tangerine Dream. With masterful use of vintage and modern synths, and suspenseful, surround-like effects, Keith Richie proves once again that he ranks among today’s finest electronic composers.”
— Candice Michelle, Journeyscapes Radio

Fields of Sorrow

At the music camp we went to there was this cute french guitar player, and boy could he play so I named this song after him and also influenced by the beautiful brass choir that played on Sundays!

My contribution to the fabulous Earthlings II compilation, released on the 21st June 2018 by Pyramid Transmissions.  This is a charity compilation with all proceeds going to World Animal Protection.

Spindle is a brand new track which we've played live a couple of times.  It's us going back into the old school, breaks lead electronica sound  which we've dabbled in from time to time, but still keeping a sense of melody and space.

Please support the charity and the artists on the album through the Buy Now link below.  It's 79 truly outstanding tracks of electro, idm, techno and acid and is a must buy for anyone into electronica from the old school.  And for a very worthy cause as well.

Written and produced by Andrew Dobson.

Thanks to Dom Graveson as always and to ADJ for inviting us to contribute.

「Olreilion」- Marty Hicks-  Album short Mix - BF001 Release date: 28.2.2019

‘Suspended In Silence’ is the second in a series of three completed albums presenting a new, more melodic direction for Hipnotic Earth. Continuing with spacious, evocative and immersive drone-based tonalities, the vast majority of these pieces are one-off improvisations that were recorded during the mornings of mid-2018 in the wine country of California. Here there is a love for not remembering how a song is made. The modus operandi is quite spontaneous, be it the recording process or sound design and mixing of additional colors afterwards. Simply in the moment with no agenda, this music strives for eternal endings and slow rotations around an axis of serenity. During the recording of these tracks birds and other creatures would sometimes meander into the apple orchard where the studio is located. They seemed to be drawn to the music as if they wanted to be on the album and occasionally, their wish was granted!
