To Favour The Stretch In Between

The world's largest iceberg, A23a — equivalent to the size of Rhode Island- is endlessly spinning near the South Orkney Islands, about 375 miles from the Antarctic Peninsula. Its dance is caused by a phenomenon in fluid mechanics known as a Taylor column. It's essentially a rotating cylinder that forms when there's an obstruction in a flow. The A23a is trapped in a kind of ocean vortex, a Taylor column.
There are many paths a collaboration can take you down. Although the typical one tends to be shaped as a kind of dialog or turn-taking, I like the most those that, instead, become as sawing a seed and watching what happens then, including some active intervention: somebody tells an idea, or provides some materials or tracks to you and they start a self-organizing process in one's DAW. That's what happened here: @user-737426987 Ambient Annie provided some tracks that made some musical sense by themselves, but I used them as seeds for something different though related. Another of Ambient Annie's relevant contributions to this track has been in providing a concept, even though this was originally unintentional: some of our email conversations deal with natural phenomena, and therefore Antarctica, its fauna and icebergs gracefully popped up. Some months later, the seeds swelled, stems grew and leaves appeared, giving way to the flowering that you can now listen to.
During the final mixing rounds, Nyarlathotep, the three-lobed burning eye creature from Lovecraft's cosmogonies, passing his crawling chaos through the throat of @lhtrah Lht (another SC artist you should listen to), unexpectedly contributed with some primordial chants to this track: my degree in Miskatonik studies allowed me to decode the singing as "I will die and nobody will remember me", which is quite appropriate for an iceberg that is slowly melting. As far as I could find out this song was first featured in a film by Alejandro Jodorowsky, "Fando y Lis" (1968).

This section of the suite gives voice to a gradual collapse. 
It begins with a distress call— two flutes sounding the alarm— and the orchestra rises in a surge of defiance. But slowly, disorder seeps into harmony, and unity begins to fracture. The trombones, the trumpets, the woodwinds, the harp — each desperately striving to find unity with the strings. Note by note, the ensemble dissolves into despair, an orchester unraveling in sorrow's embrace. At last, beneath the faint tremolo of the timpani, the music comes to a complete and haunting standstill.

NO CONVENTIONS

Original Soundtrack to the psychological visual novel «PRIVET. ETO NE BOL'NO».
This album is more than background music - it is the emotional core of the story. The OST captures the surreal atmosphere of blinding light, fragmented memories, and the constant return to "Her," the mysterious presence known as Katrina.

Each track mirrors the fragile perception of the protagonist, balancing between tension, fear, and fleeting comfort. The music is designed to immerse you in the same unsettling world as the game: a reality where trauma, repetition, and human fragility intertwine.

Through ambient soundscapes, experimental textures, and sudden bursts of intensity, the soundtrack carries you into the psychological depth of the narrative. Listening outside the game, the album becomes a standalone journey - a fragmented diary of emotions and lost moments.

Created by artists from AREYOULUVME¿ - botylez & emetyy - together with sever4user from [shi o kiku].
Released under AREYOULUVME¿, an independent label and creative collective that unites underground musicians, visual artists, and storytellers worldwide. This project reflects their shared vision: to merge music, art, and interactive media into works without boundaries
