Newer Unknown Breeds" was at the time a further development in sound for Blink Twice. The album expanded on the techno and electro genre much more than Blink Twice's debut "Other Locations". There was an increase usage of sampling on this collection of material, often with looped effects incorporated to add further density. With the blend of tribal and industrial elements remaining, it serves as an adventurous concoction of experimental rhythmic and darker ambient electronic music.

The underlying theme of "Newer Unknown Breeds" was the observance of mutations (both deliberate and natural) within organisms. Evolutionary results of obscure creatures and their advancement and place in the biological field.

From the new album: Blink Twice - Other Locations [Expanded Edition]

https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/blink-twice-other-locations-expanded-edition

Other Locations was originally released in 1996 on the German record label Broken Seal. It was the first CD release from Blink Twice and the label's second release.
At the time there was a zine culture in electronic music, where artists would send their cassettes through the mail to different underground music zines for review across the globe. It was really the only way to get one's music heard.
After putting out numerous cassettes in the early to mid 1990s, Blink Twice had earned a reputation as a unique dark ambient artist in America.
www.discogs.com/artist/48238-Blink-Twice

The dark mysterious sound of Blink Twice resonated in European countries, with favorable reviews in the Slovakian zine Crewzine, the Belgian leading electronic magazine Side-Line, Phosphor, and Wounded magazine from Lithuania. Blink Twice was also featured in American industrial magazines Outburn and Industrial Nation, as well as sonic-boom
sonic-boom.com/review/blink.twice-1.html

The sound of Blink Twice earned comparisons to artists like early Delerium, Dead Can Dance, Nightmare Lodge, SPK, and some of the Cold Meat Industry roster from Sweden such as Raison d'etre, Morthound, and Deustch Nepal. Although generally classified under the genre of "dark ambient", Blink Twice utilized much more melody and percussion than most ambient. Many tracks display the melodic layering and tribal percussion that are showcased in some current Mood Exhibit material.

"Other Locations" is finally available here on the Mood Exhibit Bandcamp page, Robert Salchak's official distribution for all his music.
It includes a large selection of bonus material from the era (1993-1996) that was either never released or only available on cassette.

Hidden as the last track is an epic nearly 15 minute tribal ambient excursion that can only be described as Dead Can Dance era Spiritchaser" (1996) meets Delerium era "Spheres I"(1994)

It is an essential historic document for followers of Mood Exhibit, as well as any fan of dark ambient/neoclassical/tribal/cinematic sounds.

This DJ type dance set has been on my iPad for many months now. I know it takes patience to set time aside for a nearly 15 minute track, and that's why I have never uploaded until now. Hopefully those that give it a "spin" will enjoy and appreciate all the movements (maybe even do some head bobbing while listening :)

180324 : Deux heures on affronte les choses du ciel, lequel termine de se tordre, près de rompre. On persévère avec un rythme irrégulier. Il conserve de la résistance, qu’on déclenche par salves et qu’il réserve on ne sait trop comment. On chiale à demi. On apprend comment pousser vers l’avant mais on s’inquiète plus tard du manque à obéir qu’engage cette course sans bornes..

This is a re-upload of the closing track from my 2017 EP, "The Mongol Princess"
It remains among my favorite musical projects to this day.
The EP is now free/pay what you want on Bandcamp-
https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/the-mongol-princess

The Mongol Princess is a conceptual EP/soundtrack by Mood Exhibit. It tells a story of a young, beautiful, and kind princess that died tragically by disease at an early age. She spread love and hope throughout the land during the precious time she lived in her role. This audio tale of her life covers all emotions: joy, passion, pain, mourning, and remembrance.
This 4th release from Mood Exhibit is the most focused in theme and approach. No "electronic" sounds where used in this EP. All instruments including percussion within tracks were performed on keyboard using high quality sampled Asian sounds, with the accompaniment of traditional Mongol vocal recordings. 

*this upload has the new image that differs from the original EP/track, and better represents how I interpret the Mongol Princess today

Hi everyone!
Here is my new single.
This track is really close to my heart.
It’s my very first jazz jam with my dad—him on the guitar, me on the synths.
We’ve always shared a deep love for music, and this song is a little piece of that bond.
Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed making it!

Lyrics :
Baby no me pidas que me aparte
Yo ya te he buscado en todas partes
Solamente vengo a recordarte que estoy
Imaginandote
Una y otra vez
Que tu estas aqui conmigo
Acariciandome
No seas timido
Dejate querer
Que si dudas te prometo
Que vas a volver

No tengo miedo
Soy un kamikaze
Mi imaginacion se prende con lo que me haces
Diario yo te pienso
Te tengo en mis suenos
Eres el motor para escribir todos mis versos
No te voy a mentir te quiero todo pa mi

IMAGINANDOTE. 🎧.  feat  Ashesndreams

Let’s have a good time, babe!

My Death is dancing
Next to me

My Life is scared to death
What a glorious mess
My Death drinks to life
And smiles

My Life says: “If my shadow leads the way
It’s time to face the sun again, yeah!”

My Death is dancing
Next to me

My Death buys us a drink
He seems pretty nice, I guess
My Life’s still scared to death

Death says:
“Are you afraid of me?
Why are you afraid of me, my love?

I’m just a part of you
Baby, I belong to you
You know we’re fusible
Dark, bright/bold and beautiful

Let’s have a good time, yeah!”

Let me know if u really dig it. Cheers and have a great summer y'all!

IknowIknow

Well hello… A new song, with a new instrument. A pawnshop Ukulele. Ha. What a fun instrument to play. Just had to. A few simple Uke chords, some acoustic guitar soloing, and a tale of sailing the ocean as a metaphor for life. And yes, lyrically I was talking with a seagull. And just so you know I have gotten really good at ‘talking’ with birds. I can click talk like a grackle, whisper whistle like a robin, whistle talk a curious melody like a chickadee, among others. Still working on my duck call. Ha… Years ago, I remember annoying some people at a party with this wooden duck call my buddy had. So maybe a future song about birds? And right outside my door there are some interesting avian dynamics between the grackles and robins nesting in the spruce trees. They argue every day, about territory and invasion of their personal space, but when danger appears, like a hawk or cat, they come together in unison to fend off the threat. In the natural biology of things, humans haven’t fallen too far from that spruce tree. Anyway, robins do not like the dark. They anxiously chatter with loud worry chirping amongst themselves at dusk, and create a chorus melody of happy song at dawn. With me being a late sleeper, their morning serenades can be quite bothersome at 4:30AM. A lesson for me though, as at times I am not so welcoming as I wakeup to another frenetic global morning. Anyway, birds and their enthusiastic singing far outpaces my own. Ha. There are many other birds here, but I will save that for another time. Hope you are well. Thanks for dropping by, Mark

Hi everyone~

We decided to try our hand at remixing something for noxpox's open collaboration here: https://soundcloud.com/noxpox20/noxpox-padang in honour of noxpox's 20th page. (noxpox is already onto page 21 though! @noxpox21)

The original sounded surreal and haunting, so we went along the same lines.
