Augmenting (Original Mix)

A short piece of ambient music for seeking answers, space, or solace.

Abhainn Shira

Throughout history, alchemists have captivated our minds with their quests to turn base materials into gold and seek the philosopher's stone. Their work was shrouded in metaphor and mystery, embodying a desire to understand the universe's hidden truths. Similarly, this collection of sounds endeavors to evoke the essence of that magical process. Each composition is a carefully crafted distillation of emotions, imagery, and ideas, resonating with the transformative powers attributed to the alchemical arts.

In Alchemies, Paul Beaudoin blends orchestral textures with glitch and noise elements, creating a sonic alchemy that mirrors the ancient quest for transformation. These contrasting sound worlds—organic and synthetic, refined and raw—come together in a seamless dialogue, embodying the fusion of disparate materials that the alchemists sought.

The album weaves through an auditory landscape, transporting you to the Fire of Calcination, where raw elements are purified, or the ethereal Black Sun, where shadows and light intertwine. As you listen, imagine the delicate Golden Transmutation—the alchemical transformation of sound and silence into rich tapestries of experience. Each track is an invitation to engage with the mysteries at the intersection of sound and spirit, reminiscent of the alchemist’s laboratory, filled with curiosity and wonder.

Join Ambient Cat on this journey as we explore the tenets of alchemy through sound, delving into the Salt of the Earth and emerging into the Albedo Phase, where clarity and illumination reign. Each piece is a gateway into an imaginative realm where transformation and transcendence occur—much like the alchemists sought, through their craft, to unlock the hidden potential of the universe.

Golden Transmutation

A dense fog of darkness unfolds, swallowing light and sound. Distant whispers and deep drones blur the line between reality and illusion. Step beyond the veil—what waits in the shadows?

Selene Erbes’ experimental flute playing is expanded upon by Koiwa’s minimalistic synths and exploratory live FX. They are joined by Chasys for a rework of each of the two tracks that this unconventional duo bring to the table, creating a sort of distorted mirror for their compositions and completing a quartet of tracks that are hard to categorise. Exactly what we like in music!
