Kraut Sounds is sort alias for an artist that followers of Whitelabrecs will recognise; South Germany’s Polaroid Notes. This project is reserved for more electronic, purer ambient explorations having been initiated in 2012. Previous releases have featured on Büro für Erdrotation, Stellar Transitions, Diametral and Drone Works International.

This digital-only edition is a debut under this name, for Whitelabrecs and clocks in at just over 35 minutes of audio. Silence is a peaceful journey through quiet and meditative soundscapes, based on personal studies about sleep, subconsciousness and higher awareness, in combination with a deep interest in old electronic sounds from the past century.
It is an attempt to play less, in order to gain more. Like minimal music with repeating and shifting multi-layered soundscapes. Like slow motion sound painting, with a curious view of how things evolve naturally.

All five tracks are based on improvisations, following no specific rules or schemes. Everything flows in way that works uniquely for you, as you drift along in sound and time.

Grammar Of Imperfection

Postcard 38 comes from Mind over MIDI aka Helge Tommervag. Based in deepest and darkest Norway, Helge has been working with electronic music since the beginning of the 80's and over the years has graced many labels including Beatservice, Silent Season, Beserk Fabric and diametric. On his postcard EP for us at hibernate, Helge pays tribute to his natural surroundings where strong, chilly winds blow and die down to allow gorgeous atmospheric material to shine through.

A limited edition of 60 hand-numbered 3" CDr collectible copies. Available from hibernate-recs.uk

To All

Federico Mosconi - Memories Not Memories, taken from the new album "Light not Light"

Format: Digital and CD
Limited Edition Cdr / 50 copies / Handmade sleeves / Hand numbered / Black and Brown Kraft paper / High quality pro duplicated CDr's / No repress 

Pre Order: https://shimmeringmoodsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/light-not-light

In Light not Light, as the titles suggest, each track could be, or not be, each draws a scenario where the listener is the subject, and the composer has already completed his task. 
The sound, too, comes from an instrument (classical guitar) that is no longer itself, shaped and transformed by electronics into its future projection. Sometimes you can find traces of natural sounds, as if to preserve a connection with the original idea, sometimes I inserted some field recordings, as little suggestions.
