Light Through

Sleepybutterfly - In God's Hands

"HEAT DEATH" by Bardea is his first attempt at making something “dancier” and slightly faster.  Bardea tried to use more atypical percussion sounds and whirring foley fx to still keep his own spin on it.  Typically, his music is slower and a little more experimental.

Heat Death

Bardea - HEAT DEATH

French composer Vincent Villuis, aka AES Dana, known for his participation to the H.U.V.A. Network band and co-manager of Ultimae Records, signs here his 4th ambient downtempo album and presents 10 immersive tracks of luminous darkness. 

"For those who believe in them, Leylines are invisible lines of forces that connect centers of geomagnetic power to one another." 
Throughout the album, the artist builds upon the concept of connections that exist between various musical genres and influences, interlinks between the elements surrounding us, the feelings of life. Sound becomes organic matter, clay. 
Tapped, scraped, plucked, stretched, it transforms into rich rhythms, spatial acoustics, sustained harmonics, hypnotic morphing pads and profound basslines. 
The outcome is a granular journey of complex delicacy, fragmented and yet fluid.

Eighty Nine Years

The Apana Ep launches a series of three releases by Martin Nonstatic including of full length album and a mellower atmospheric Ep. 
As we elect to search for the meaning of this chosen word. 
Martin, the composer, being a fervent Yogi practitioner, we gather it has a relation to his personal experience and dig a little wider... Apana, Apāna, Āpaṇa, Āpāna, so many spellings and definitions in so many languages ; we retain the watering shed, the vital expiration and the banquet of hypnotic and downtempo delights we entice you to join. 
Let yourself be lulled by the distinguished Nonstatic rhythm and loop patterns and stand exploring new electronic aural geographies, deep and spacious.

Ultimae proudly presents "Hereafter", a collection of past and present works by Mihalis Aikaterinis aka MIKTEK to which the Greek composer desired to give a second breath and offer a new dive into his deep musical world. All tracks were carefully chosen, revisited, reedited, recorded live, remastered and assembled with two unreleased ones to create a smooth melancholic journey.

Washed out blissful pads and slow idm rhythms are to be expected as the foundation of this release. From the warm ambient vibe of Dawsonia to the dubbed out landscapes of Omniprescence and the glitchy rhythms of Atmosphere of Neglect, Mihalis cruises through multiple electronic territories while keeping a coherent sound along the way.

Sometimes reassuring, sometimes dark, but always captivating, these pieces feel like a never ending ascent to the lights above.
During the troubled times we're experimenting, "Hereafter" resonates with a touching singularity. While the title might evoke dismal images, what we hear is an invitation to look farther than anything else, farther than our present times, to journey to clearer skies and quieter waters.

Derived from the Latin “Ultimae Terrae,” meaning “the furthest places,” the name Ultimae reflects a profound theme of exploration. This concept is at the heart of Ultimae Records, an ambient music record label and publisher dedicated to transporting listeners to the outer edges of experience through sound and offering a space for introspection and discovery within the vastness of the mind and beyond.

In 1999, Vincent Villuis and Sandrine Gryson, also known as AES Dana and Mahiane, united over a shared passion for the immersive world of electronic music. This collaboration led to the birth of the label. Initially envisioned as a musical portal, Ultimae’s mission was to explore and disseminate the diverse expressions of Ambient music far and wide through the production of records and the establishment of an online shop.

Over the years, Ultimae has expanded beyond its original scope, evolving into a multifaceted company with sound design, post-production, and mastering studios based in Lyon, France, along with professional services in publishing, music licensing, and synchronization.
