A collaborative album between Grant Richardson (Gnawed) &
Themistoklis Altintzoglou (Θ), Molten Vasts is exactly as it’s name and imaging implies…a roiling and mesmerizing mass of molten textures, arching drones, and searing oceanic swirls. Dark ambient in it's purest form.

Freakwork - Helic Arc

live excerpt

Frecuencias Ancestrales is an audiovisual exploration of the sounds of the ancestral cultures of Mexico by the musician /beyond/, the filmmaker Pedro Maia and the pre-Hispanic multi-instrumentalist Óscar Carrillo, who in a joint creative process seek symbiosis and synergy between the music of ancient rituals and the repetitive rhythms adopted by various currents of avant-garde music. 

The Live AV was shot in Mexico in analog format with a super 8 camera, with scenes of ceremonies that reflect the cultural, socio-historical and folkloric factors and traces that can still be found in Mexico today.

NYX RITUAL L - FRECUENCIAS ANCESTRALES LIVE

Flinch & bones - hymns of woe
Dissolves in mouth
Mopes denounced

Spreading grey
Draft, limestone
No beat after beat
Dread, lone

Lung branches - hold still
Sink below, fleets
As the fossil trails afield
As the rot curves unreeled.

Farewell has merely become a part of life we already live. Standing in front of fading realms, fragil, as it is ephemeral. Fleeting memory, monody, chromatic grief, maladies - from warm skin to cold stones. De-seeding the stasis that allows the uninterrupted heartache to go on.

'Only Autumn Returns' captures bittersweet remembrance as a poignant tribute to the the depth of human transience and the enduring power of impermanence.

Another older mix that I've decided to save from possible CD-R rot which might have been a good thing since I had trouble extracting it the first time.
It's a mix from 2010, under my old alias, with a wide BPM range and a number of different styles and sounds that tend to be on the noisier side.

"Violence Turning Inward"
Cruel Intentions [LP, Ascetic House, 202]

release date [LP]: November 24, 2020
available at ascetic.house and ascetichouse.com

“A rough-hewn pendulum, Cruel Intentions swings between Shredded Nerve’s previous LP and this year's Acts of Betrayal, vacillating between the noisy and the serene through crude loops and environmentally-specific recordings, driven by hope for the future and exhaustion of the day's burden. Like an apartment building collapsing inwards, no listener is safe from the debris of glass, metal, wood and electricity Shredded Nerve employs. While previous works have focused on blunt repetition, Lakes embraces his sounds' desire to sprawl out and infect each other throughout these five pieces. The opener ("Burning Arrival") brings the same sort of twisted backward violin sound found on the Butthole Surfers' "Creep in the Cellar" but manages to further elucidate this terror with discreet scrapings and the gathering of small objects before lumbering up the stairs, arms full of white hot static interference. The errant crackling through heavy tones and cheap, ringing steel, synthesized warping and vitric ritualistic knocks serve to take us further out of ourselves, looking through a thick window as we slowly age. Tension and dread are at this end, but what awaits on the other side?”
— Greh Holger (Hive Mind/Chondritic Sound)

Shredded Nerve is the primary output of multimedia artist Justin Lakes. Drawing from a palette of found sound, electroacoustic amplification, and analog synthesis, his work is composed through the
use of handmade cassette loops which have come to be known as his signature. Originally based in Cincinnati, Lakes has operated out of Brooklyn since 2014 where he co-founded the record store Thousands of Dead Gods and subsequent tape label Dead Gods. In addition to publishing printed materials of collages and flyers, he also runs the limited edition CDr imprint Small Mercies. Cruel Intentions is Shredded Nerve's 2nd LP, a follow up to 2016's In The Shadow Of What Never Was.
