Whith LaoTar Live-September

Found on my debut album "Language of the Ancients," this is one of my favorite tracks from that release. Here it is performed live in the studio for all of you to enjoy! All faders, realtime effects, and synthesizers were all recorded in one take, the same way I would do it live at a show. This is chance for you to revisit the song and a unique opportunity to hear me playing live in the studio! 

There are PLENTY of exciting things going on in the S1gns Of L1fe universe!

I have a new ambient project with @phase47 about to launch called "Ascendant"

Sounds like my new album is going to be a bit faster than the old one. And here's what's cooking in my kitchen. Not sure genre-wise, hence the funny tag - and of course, this is just a preview. 

Enjoy.

Brand new track from Ascendant (@s1gnsofl1fe & @phase47) "Scorpio" off our new album SOURCE TRANSMISSION! Please Repost this track! 

Available for pre-order right now:

http://ambientascendant.bandcamp.com

SOURCE TRANSMISSION — the first full-length album from Ascendant will be available on April 29, 2014.

Source Transmission, the first full-length album from Ascendant, invites you to listen and discover the link between the natural world, the known universe, and what lies beyond. Through transcoding ancient sonic imprints, and uncovering the endless echoes of space and time, Source Transmission provides a bridge between two worlds of perception, and offers a glimpse of the transcendental experience that pervades everything both seen and unseen. A celestial odyssey exploring the origins of all that we were, are, and will become.

Stay tuned (and like) the Ascendant facebook page for news, previews, and updates. We thank you for your continued support of independent electronic music.

Spring's Tears of Joy

Sound of the Dzzd

The composition of this Far & Off album began after on long period of detachment and isolation. 

This modern life we lead tends to saturate many of us with information, constant stimuli of all kinds and shatter time, as if we lived in small sequences. Some of us content themselves with that, some manage to regulate or tighten the flow, others collapse or pretend not to. 

I guess I'm not the only one to ever feel the need to fly away, remove myself from the ongoing swirl and purely vanish. 
It wasn’t a matter of waking up with a sudden urge, it built up, slowly, between the lines, it wasn’t caused by any philosophical, spiritual or religious belief either. It simply became a natural answer to the surrounding frenzy. 

To be on my own, far, in another context, without technology, an act of protection. Taste real solitude, a state in which no one else exists; cross the line, change rhythm and feel the passing of time. 
This is what I am sharing with you now, with keys and sounds, pads and patterns, glitches and drums. My desire was to compose contrasted tales, to bring light on the paradox, from one extreme to the other, harshness to tranquility. 

Mihalis, as he encountered a similar situation was keen on putting those emotions into music and the perfect partner as it turned out.

Many thanks for collaborators and musicians: 

Enter The Nest - Muchas gracias for this beautiful Icaro for Maestro Hegner.  
Phoenix Rising - Many thanks for guitar parts by Nail Kuramshin.
Stars Of My Life - Amazing vocal by Janet Zohar and very deep lyrics by Aden Ray. 
Santuario - Maestro Enrrique Melendez Paredes and his sacred Icaro. 

Special thanks to the healing centre Santuario, Peru. 

This album is the result of several years of professional, internal and spiritual transformation. These internal searches were inextricably synchronized with external searches. A new sound, a new language, a completely different sphere of perception and transmission of material.

The fusion of electronics, downtempo, ethnic music and a state of no-mind in contact with spirit and nature revealed a completely unexpected taste that immerses into a real journey and this is how it is recommended you listen to this album - from the beginning to the end. There are no 'passing' tracks in order to simply 'fill the space'. Each work is a deep and sincere revelation in collaboration with remarkable musicians and vocalists, real professionals in their field.

Latyshev - Listen To Your Heart

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.

Ancient Realms

Episode 105: Interiora Verbum

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.
