Grendel And The Ghost

Citrine is a stone as bright as its energy. Everything about this stone emanates positivity and joy. Even its name, which is derived from the French word for lemon, carries a sense of sun and joy attached to it. Found naturally in Brazil, Africa, Madagascar, Spain, Russia, France, Scotland and USA, this gemstone has been an ornamental gem for civilizations as early as 300 B.C., and a favorite with jewelry makers since the ancient Greeks and Romans. Even in first century A.D., citrine was being fashioned into cabochon rings and used in intaglio work. Later in the 17th century, Queen Victoria would become fascinated by the beauty of the stone, and as a result it would be used by Scottish men in kilt pins, shoulder broaches, and to adorn their swords and the handles of their daggers. The stone’s popularity resurged again during the Art Deco era, as early Hollywood stars boasted citrine jewelry like elaborate brooches, grand necklaces and other pieces where large faceted citrine was the center piece.

Esylt - Languishing

An early 4 AM recording of crows waking up, in the rain.

Music is not only about making, but also about listening. I go out and record with a Marantz PDM-660 and record whatever I can. In this case it happened to be 4 AM and the crows were just waking up. I posted the full 30 minutes because 4 minutes do not do justice to the moment. Afterwards, I just listen to relax, or I sample and integrate. There are so many sample packs nowadays, but we tend to forget the basic sample pack - the nature around us. Feel free to sample from this and do whatever you want with it. I am using this recording for 'The crow sessions'. 

On a more philosophical level these birds represent our human society, where everyone is talking and no one is listening. It leads to a cacophony and not a symphony.

Azuresun -  Shamanic Journey

Ubiel is a village on the territory of present Belarus with a long and difficult history - after World War II, depopulated, it basically ceased to exist.. Many years earlier, on May 5, 1819, Stanisław Moniuszko was born in Ubiel.

An ambient-experimental musical project of the same name is a specific soundtrack for this place. Seven chamber compositions by Moniuszko served as the basis for its creation, but their original character has changed to such an extent that it is difficult to talk about adaptations, but rather derivatives, autonomous musical entities. One of the basic assumptions of the project was the total rejection of classical instruments. They were replaced by a modular system, electroacoustic devices, additional harmonic drone structures and field recordings. Any fidelity to the compositions of Moniuszko is out of the question - although they are sometimes audible, they are subject to improvisation and chaos. The machine cannot be easily tamed and enforces dialogue with itself.

Ubiel live is largely an improvised audiovisual project of Piotr Dąbrowski (music) and Tom Skof (visuals).

Ventilate - Live Minimal Dark Ambient Synthesizer session (Elektron, Eventide) 20.09.2019

Drawn to sounds in the distance I chart my path, my ears lead me and my eyes will join. I collect and I recollect. Meaning is not given but taken. Home and abroad is the same but different. The difference is created by the distance. The distance is just a stance. Wherever you go, sound will be waiting for you to lead you into a trance, to dance, to awaken.
