Beginning as a modular synth jam recorded directly to tape, this track eventually gained acoustic guitars,  shortwave radio, hand percussion and a pocket piano with a dying battery.  

Drifting On Rails

Small independent label based in Norway, with focus on ambient, drone and left field electronic music.

Disgraced physicist. 
Relic.   
Shut in.  
Daniel K. Böhm.  
Best known for causing the reactor meltdown in Wüttenschlesig. He now lives on an abandoned cotton farm near Spur, Texas.
I met Daniel in 2006. 
His room was unusually warm.  Womb-like.  I remember layers of wallpaper, peeling, flaking, floating down to settle on a book or a pile of magazines. There was a cat drawing in the warmth of an amplifier.   Faint sounds warbled through a speaker.
 In the corner,  9 feet of audio tape lay in a magnetic nest.  A coffee table sat in the center of the room, overflowing with maps, circuits,, half empty coffee mugs and scraps of mathematical equations. 
In dim light. He rocked as he spoke. He still wore the lab coat.
At each visit he would bestow tapes.  artifacts.  Wobbly spools rattled inside the cassette enclosures.  
He was a minor curiosity.  I met him only the one time.   He scrawled an almost illegible signature, making me executor of his estate. It consisted solely of recordings.  
After time, the tapes began to reverberate with meaning.  
He’s gone now. 
Here are his tapes.

First Rebirth - dark emotional electronic
(dark downtempo/IDM/trip-hop/dark ambient/industrial)

First Rebirth is a one-man project, a journey to the shards of subconsciousness and memory fragments through the prism of emotions. Perhaps someone will find something for themselves in it.

The project has existed since 2005, and its music can be described as "dark emotional electronic", combining elements of various genres, from dark downtempo, IDM and trip-hop to dark ambient, illbient and industrial - beyond any frames and limitations.
The desire to express different shades of mood, the deepest experiences and the strongest impressions of life - what cannot be expressed in words - what's deep inside...

///
"First Rebirth is an eclectic mix of styles, hypnotic rhythms and haunting melodies, originality and expression, bare nerve and absolute dedication on stage."

Official releases:
2017 - Abyss Is Calling [Abstrakt Reflections]
2014 - Inner Darkness, Outer Light [Abstrakt Reflections]
2009 - Last Runaway (EP) [Enough Records]
