Stranger Things OST composer Kyle Dixon debuts his new imprint Castle Quality Bricks (in collaboration with Holodeck Records) with a reissue of Normal Echo’s 2017 sleek and somber synth-pop full-length Kaskady, newly remastered for its first ever vinyl release. Following early success as one half of Polish avant-pop duo Niwea, Dawid Szczęsny aka Normal Echo has evolved into a magnetic solo artist known for crafting eloquently minimalist arrangements and smooth, captivating vocals. Recently remastered by Joshua Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv), Szczęsny’s haunting synth tones and timeless production have been enriched into an even more immersive experience, making this definitive edition of Kaskady prime for discovery.

mono no aware (もののあわれ) is the first compilation to be released on PAN, collating unreleased ambient tracks from both new and existing PAN artists.

Featuring Jeff Witscher, Helm, TCF, Yves Tumor, M.E.S.H., Pan Daijing, HVAD, Kareem Lotfy, ADR, Mya Gomez, Sky H1, James K, Oli XL, Bill Kouligas, Flora Yin-Wong, Malibu, and AYYA, the compilation moves through more traditional notions of what is called ’ambient’, to incorporating wider variations that fall under the term.

“Mono no aware”, ‘the pathos of things’, also translates as “an empathy toward things", or "a sensitivity to ephemera”. A term for the awareness of impermanence, or the transience of things. A meditation on mortality and life's transience, ephemerality heightens the appreciation of beauty and sensitivity to their passing. In investigating the passing of time, the boundaries between memory and hallucination become blurred; between fiction and reality. The movement of time transforms into an eternal present.

The album is mastered and cut by Rashad Becker at D&M, featuring photography by Molly Matalon and design by Bill Kouligas. A limited version of 100 copies will be released as a special art edition in collaboration with Mount Analog for the LA Art Book Fair 2017, before going on general release.
