Ultimae proudly presents "Hereafter", a collection of past and present works by Mihalis Aikaterinis aka MIKTEK to which the Greek composer desired to give a second breath and offer a new dive into his deep musical world. All tracks were carefully chosen, revisited, reedited, recorded live, remastered and assembled with two unreleased ones to create a smooth melancholic journey.

Washed out blissful pads and slow idm rhythms are to be expected as the foundation of this release. From the warm ambient vibe of Dawsonia to the dubbed out landscapes of Omniprescence and the glitchy rhythms of Atmosphere of Neglect, Mihalis cruises through multiple electronic territories while keeping a coherent sound along the way.

Sometimes reassuring, sometimes dark, but always captivating, these pieces feel like a never ending ascent to the lights above.
During the troubled times we're experimenting, "Hereafter" resonates with a touching singularity. While the title might evoke dismal images, what we hear is an invitation to look farther than anything else, farther than our present times, to journey to clearer skies and quieter waters.

Ambient Network IV is now available for download 📡

The music presented here was composed for a project which did not turn out happily, but music must be heard and shared so I elected to find new titles and make it available to you digitally on Bandcamp.

I wish you enjoy my composition and thank you for the enthusiastic support and feedback.

With love,
Mihalis

Untitled - Exclusive Utopia Boom Landing '14 - LIVE

A new chapter in the Oxycanta series of compilations by French Dj and arranger Mahiane featuring tracks by artists who are emerging at the forefront of the ambient scene as well as pathfinders in the genre.

Throughout Oxycanta III the sound spectrum reaches wide arrays of deep bass all the way to the high-pitched resonances to display many of the DJ’s musical influences while, with a keen sense of float, she blends IDM, downtempo and neo-classical with a hint of atmospheric electronica, and a dash of dub.
Driven by her passion for music and nature, Mahiane titled her collection Oxycanta as a tribute to Crataegus Oxyacantha, a species of Northern European Hawthorn dear to old time herbalists.

Mind-bending story; an invitation to slow the pace and wonder…

There has been a mistake in the tracklist of Ambient Network III, track 2 (now track 5) "Crystals and Stuff" is actually "Is Calm" but I stupidly mixed up the titles back then ... Oopsie! Sorry for any confusion :)

Leave Things as They Are [ erissoma remix ]

[ Passages ] is the third compilation by London based DJ, promoter and music journalist Massimo Terranova aka Nova. Following in the footsteps of his previous releases, [ Albedo ] in 2005 and Imaginary Friends in 2009, Nova presents a brand new mix of emo-ambient and electronica to evoke today’s dichotomy in relationships and rites of passage.

Gathering emerging artists and seasoned talents in the realms of pulsating minimal dubs, atmospherica, and downtempo, [ Passages ] offers a rich palette of serial music and soundscapes depicting the London’s urban skyline and a life of mono/poly-chromatic contrasts.

Nova delivers an elegant musical story wrapped in Italian art & fashion photographer Giovanni Calemma’s modish black and white illustrations and featuring James Murray, Fingers in the Noise, Cygna, Brando Lupi, Miktek, Murya, Martin Nonstatic, Lars Leonhard, AES Dana, Connect.Ohm, Max Million and Zinovia.

Dawsonia

[ Ambrosia ] is compiled by Fishimself and consists of 10 tracks composed by mainly Greek artists, whose names were seldom heard of, but who should quickly reach the pantheon of Psychill.

The compilation forms a dense musical journey built upon warm, downtempo grooves with a touch of electronica, breakbeat and idm, wrapped in hypnotic atmospheres, pulsating basslines and melancholic pads. 
Fishimself, the deejay and the man behind IT Records shop and Freeze Magazine, carefully chose the tracks so in order to evoke the far shores of the Greek Islands and to reveal their electronic music culture.

Featuring Max Million & Gusk, Miktek, Sygnals, Sesen, Alpha Tek, Memphidos, One Arc Degree, and two French guests, AES Dana and Asura.

Ominous Ride

From deep ambient to lush progressive grooves, Greenosophy offers fresh chlorophyll visions, leafy rhythms and luxuriant melodies. Mizoo believes that music can develop a sense of empathy between people, philosophical reflections on our thoughts and acts; a point of view and a way of life he develops in this compilation.

Immerse yourself in this lush music dreamed by international artists mnnsk (Switzerland), Rildrim (Spain), Liquid Stranger (USA), Sesen (Greece), Cell (France), Ajja (Switzerland), Tripswitch (UK), Solar Fields (Sweden), Miktek (Greece), James Murray (UK) and Cygna (Malta).

Astropilot - In the middle [ miktek remix ]

Four years after the release of Hadravision, the very first ambient downtempo compilation from Hadra Records, the second volume of the series is finally launched. This new release proposes a deep contemplative journey, which will delight both fervent amateurs of this genre as well as those seeking new acoustic discoveries. Sysyphe, leading artist from the ambient section of the label, meticulously constructed a compilation oozing with soft, appeasing and enthralling atmospheres. Hadravision II will take you on a ride packed up with emotions. Respecting the label’s customary tradition, international artists such as Olexa, Astropilot, Odiolab and Erot have teamed up with label producers Sleeping Forest, LovPact and Sysyphe himself. Together, they will completely immerse you into Hadra’s unique psychedelic ambient soundscape.

After multiple releases on various labels including the much acclaimed Abstrakt Reflections, here comes [ Elsewhere ], Miktek's first full length album on Ultimae.

With roots in the gothic and cold wave realms and a genuine passion for the electronic scene, he weaves with verve and subtlety finely crafted rhythms and soft melodies. The wide soundscapes, floating atmospheres and resonant themes reveal profound emotions akin to melancholia and hope.

[ Elsewhere ] is a cinematic downtempo, IDM and ambient album presenting 12 tracks including a remixed version of Ominous Ride featured on the [ Ambrosia ] compilation.

Artwork and mastering by Vincent Villuis at Ultimae Studio.
