Fraunhofer Diffraction is a project by the Russian Stanislav Martensitov (born 1993, based in Moscow). He previously made music for a project called Вечный Ноябрь (Renamed to Stahlflüstern/ Totenraum/ Eternal November), but decided to consolidate all his efforts into Fraunhofer Diffraction. Stanislav was previously an active member of the Russian WitchHouse community ВЕДЬМИН ДОМ (VEDMIN DOM). Stanislav later broke off from VEDMIN DOM after its end, and now seems to be an independent artist.

Known as one of the Godfathers of the Russian WitchHouse scene, who started their humble beginnings during the early days of VV17CHØU7 (WitchOut) performing alongside other popular artist like SUICIDEWAVE, Radost Moja, and Mugl, who later on made a name for themselves.

Fraunhofer Diffractions music brings a range of Emotions, his music can give off feelings of deep sadness, Melancholy, great joy, and Anger. His music to me in my personal opinion feel like tracks filled with pent up unreleased emotions someone has been keeping deep inside themselves and now releasing them after a long time. I always loved the way most of his tracks seem to build up and get very intense towards the end.

I'm aware some of his albums may be missing on this playlist, since I only uploaded the ones that were mainly WitchHouse & Dark Ambient, as his other albums are more so Techno and a mix of other genres since I'm trying to keep my account mainly WitchHouse. 

For those who feel generous enough to support him, you can use the links below I posted to buy his albums on Bandcamp and other merchandise he offers on there with the links posted Below.

Much love, and thank you for listening. 🖤

LYRICS:

Putting on my black dress
Gotta clean up this mess
Black lips
Pale skin and cut crease
Putting on my black dress
Yeah I surrender this fight
No more
I offer nothing but peace

Can you see into the floor and,
See me melting underground?

I'm in the shadow
I'm in the shadow
I'm in the shadow
I'm in the shadow

(Chopped)
Putting on my black dress
Gotta clean up this mess
Black lips
Pale skin and cut crease
Putting on my black dress
Yeah I surrender this fight
No more
I offer nothing but peace

Rotting gently in a box
Precious shell of who I was
I wanna be like you again
Wind the tape back to the start
All this grainy evidence
Waiting silent in the dark
The dark

I'm in the shadow
I'm in the shadow
I'm in the shadow
I'm in the shadow

So this was a crazy collab that Street Cleaner and I did a while back.  I hadn't been playing guitar much, and got so into this recording that I ended up with some badical blisters! (peep the photo)   I laid down a few synths on top of what he had sent me and recorded the gnarly guitar shredding, and quickly fell in love with this track!  I.M.O. this is the best collab we ever did (and of course, his final version and mix doesn't do my parts justice ...says the guitar player XD )

Anyway, I sent him the tracks, but he ended up having a computer crash and losing all of his files, so he rebuilt his final version of the track from scratch.  This is actually the original files, but here's where the story takes an extra turn.  Shortly after this I had my own HDD crash and lost all of the files myself (and I had deleted all of the stems from drop box).  So, unfortunately I can't continue to mix this, but I don't think it needs any extra dramatic mixing and mastering for the style anyway.  Hope you guys enjoy this unearthed gem as much as I do!

lyrics:
Everything you feel
And everything you think
I knew it all before
You don’t even need to speak, like
Caught up in my eyes
I don’t even need to try
I just cut and hold
The knife up
Knife in the sky
I hear you say my name
And I barely hear the cries
Bitch i got some cake to eat
And I know you wanna try me
Yeah it’s not surprising
I been high key
Following the vibes since
I felt them in the backseat

Day Dream
Wander through the night
Like Its a big dream
Falsely
Everything collapsed
Now it’s a big scene
Icy
Cash on my chain
Watch you watch me
While the fire burns
Yeah I know you’ll hold me closely
Lightning
Don’t know what I’m on
And now I can’t sleep
Find me sippin' on all of the reasons that I’m empty
Head in the sky
But I feel so empty
Levitate with you
But I’m still buried when I’m empty

Bright eyed, numb the pain
Now I feel you in my veins
I’m still following the vibes
Now we caught up in the flames
I saw you in the 5D
You were all up on me
I know what You want
I think we should play for keeps
Like
Foggy from the rain
Yeah, I know it’s kinda strange
Watch you sip on all my potion
While I feel some type of way
I don’t need to understand
All the things you make me say
Put my finger on the trigger
But I’m not the one to blame

Day Dream
Wander through the night
Like Its a big dream
Falsely
Everything collapsed
Now it’s a big scene
Icy
Cash on my chain
Watch you watch me
While the fire burns
Yeah I know you’ll hold me closely
Lightning
Don’t know what I’m on
And now I can’t sleep
Find me sippin' on all of the reasons that I’m empty
Head in the sky
But I feel so empty
Levitate with you
But I’m still buried when I’m empty

You, I
You, you & I
You, I
Buried in the sky

This account consist of mainly Russian WitchHouse artist & Russian Electronic artist. Though I do upload albums from other artist from around the world who either dabbled in the genre or had some sort of relevance, participation, or presence in the WitchHouse scene.

Fun Fact: 

"Pictureplane"(Travis Egedy), is a popular artist known for making his come up in the electronic music scene, DIY Venues, also popular for hanging around artists like "Grimes" and "Crystal Castles" in the early come up days of these artist, he is also the one who came up with the word "Witch House" which is a playful word on "House" music, though "Witch House" is now a popular music genre that is enjoyed by many.

"Crystal Castles" are actually one of the very first, if not the first electronic music duo to actually invent "Witch House" music, as you can hear dark beats and sorrow drawn out voices off of some of their early (demo songs/ Demo Album) dating back from "2007" and before that, which is crazy to think since during that time "Witch House" did not have a name for itself yet.
