“We welcome back long time contributor John Beers aka Luciftias with a new album of subtle droning ambient, featuring contributions of his cousin and collaborator Caleb Beers. Like most of their work, Staring Into Oblivion is based on guitar sounds, often heavily treated but more recognizable on some tracks here – always hypnotic.”
Released August 12, 2023 as free (cc) digital download and limited cassette edition.
Track 4 is not on the tape.
Composed and produced by Abu Ama + BedouinDrone

Vulpiano Records is proud to present a sprawling chronicle of the transcendent compositions released through the label during 2022, including Netlabel Day, by our generous and talented collaborators for a singular listening experience.
There is a continuous sonic motif of the sublime, and the possible impressions within contain multitudes: time and place, knowing, chaos, Gaia, the vastness of space, death, life, suffering, nirvana…In the long traditions of drone and ambient music, it is a canvas for the listener and an acoustic salve that opens channels new and subtly re-wires our senses.
Breathing out while listening, you sense the artists vaporizing and reshaping the rubble of the last few years – gifting us precious moments to do the same.
The label will likely be on hiatus for the rest of 2023 while we regroup and ascertain where to go from here.
Four psychedelic drones on the border between oblivion and reality, recorded over several nights in the summer of 2022 during live improvisation sessions.

A Netlabel Day 2022 Release
Despite its electronic undertones, Enrico takes more of an explicitly classical direction with this subtly dark orchestral piece. It evokes the impulsive journey from languishing in the shade beneath the voluminous leaves of a sacred fig tree to keeping apace with the torrent of a stream by horseback on a baking hot day, from anxiety to a disquieting abandon.
