A masterfully crafted audio experience that emerges as if from the sonic depths to wash over the listener in wave after wave of sound. And I really dig the blissful pace of the song as it all sonically evolves within the arrangement. Truly exotic tones throughout, and delivered in such a pleasing way !!

It's magic... So refined datails.... Awesome

Mister Stichs
Release Date: August 24, 2016
© 2016 Keith Richie

An Original 'N'otion Picture Soundtrack by Keith Richie

When a family moves from the quiet suburbs of Downey, California to a remote farmhouse in Texas, they hope for peace and renewal. What they find instead is something far older and more sinister—an unseen force tethered to the land, festering in the silence, unraveling their sanity one thread at a time.

As unease gives way to full-blown horror, they are pulled into a waking nightmare where perception fractures, trust dissolves, and reality becomes twisted beyond recognition. At the center of it all is a malevolent entity—Mister Stichs—a presence that doesn’t merely haunt but hunts.

This cinematic concept album is a dark ambient descent into psychological terror, merging vintage synth horror with modern sound design. Drawing influence from John Carpenter, Tangerine Dream, and the haunting landscapes of classic suspense scores, Mister Stichs delivers an unsettling, immersive experience built on analog textures, spectral atmospheres, and emotionally resonant melodies.

With chilling ambience, bursts of dread, and fleeting glimpses of fragile beauty, Mister Stichs is not just a soundtrack—it’s a sonic horror story.

Critical Praise:

“A sophisticated and unrelenting journey into darkness.”
— Ben Dugas, ZoneMusicReporter.com

“Mister Stichs is impressively reminiscent of a John Carpenter film score, and it evokes the spirit of Tangerine Dream. With masterful use of vintage and modern synths, and suspenseful, surround-like effects, Keith Richie proves once again that he ranks among today’s finest electronic composers.”
— Candice Michelle, Journeyscapes Radio

DARK AMBIENT - OMINOIUS

This more ambient , peaceful track I wanted to keep quite simple. Ive always loved the sound of Uilleann pipes and although not a patch on the extraordinary sound of real ones this is I hope a passable digital imitation. Some of the fx / percussion sounds earlier in the track is a blackbird thats been processed / digitalised until its no longer recognisable. At the end of the song it changes back into a real bird - hence the title .. hope you enjoy - Spinger 

Washing away the Ones and Zeros

The origin of this track was inspired by the 2 note guitar riff behind the snare in the Tears for Fears song - The Working Hour.  [  you woudnt guess that by hearing it ]   
The cover art looks like a map of some islands but is actually made from the patterns of Ocelot markings.  
 Ocelots are a type of cat.

Martin Nonstatic releases "Treeline", a crispy cinematic and electronic album build upon lucious morphing atmospheres ; ever spiralling, electric glides and audacious rhythmic patterns. A dance at dawn album with a view; deeply rolling on stretched-out dub. 
The story got a definite Martin Nonstatic touch to it, you'll even hear sounds you've heard before and think you're on safe grounds but this time to composer will carry you way beyond your expectations, revealing aspects of his creation with more grit and an adventurous mind.
Neoteric by essence and yet a return to some oneiric trip-hop and the day after, hands up in the air, dancing grooves feeling ; Treeline is the third album signed on French imprint Ultimae, from a rather prolific artist who launched into numerous collaborations including the Ghostwalk EP with James Murray and the Eskostatic album and who, throughout his art, keeps on questioning causes and underlying perceptions.

Producer of electronic, ambient and experimental music from the south coast of England.

Bio:

Immersed in the synth-pop and electronica of the Eighties growing up in southern England, State Azure (b. 1972) found early inspiration in Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and Vangelis. Deconstructing their tracks ignited his passion, leading him to develop a foundational understanding of electronic music theory, composition and production entirely by ear and experimentation.

He honed his skills as a keyboardist and producer within live bands before venturing into solo ambient/experimental territory. This self-taught journey fostered a deeply improvisational and emotional approach, free from the confines of formal training.

State Azure's sonic world is further shaped by influences beyond music, drawing heavily from science fiction, cosmology, physics, and technology.

Seizing the opportunity presented by the burgeoning online music scene, he launched the State Azure project to connect directly with listeners, debuting with the album 'Outlines' in December 2011.
