various artists

“murk academy”

desperation and fear chase us along the way and manage to catch every now and then. those moments come, when you look through objects and people, your thoughts are lost somewhere in between dense thickets of previous life experiences. devastating inertia drives you jaded and weary. comfort is found alongside horror, anguish and stillness. rest your thoughts peacefully and let music heal you into calm acceptance of you being a part of this academy of wandering souls.

[neuma]

“Volviendo a casa”

A perfect title for [neuma]´s return to SERIES media squad. In his best shape ever, he offers us songs that move between hip-hop and landscape electronica. Regarding the hip-hop exercise, there is no doubt that ‘224 (falsa alarma)’ is one of the year’s song of the genre, where along with the MC’s Medina and Vito (Bellavista Social Club) they create a fine and emotive piece, perfect for Boom Boxes en español.
In the instru(mental) hip-hop department,’229 (pullovers y encajes)’ offers sexy and cadentious grooves that inhabit your brain for a long time. The ‘Versa 01, 02, 03’ series drop us into that [neuma] ocean where everything is a bit slower, pale but immensely beautiful.

[UPL 040]

Lugol’s Iodine

“Staff EP”

Menacing, bleak poetry combined with trembling, post-industrial groove, tinged with electronic gothic and neofolk…The band has a strong sense of dynamics, administering cold sounds, which evolve from seemingly simple repetitions into hypnotizing soundscapes.
>From the band:
The third album by the band, “Staff” EP, was created in a duo, or even a trio Lech, the only constant member of the project, is responsible for the majority of music, and the arrangement and performance of vocal lines (as well as flute tracks) was taken care of by Agata, a vocalist with a wide studio and stage experience. The third, most important point of this triangle are the lyrics taken from a notable Polish poet, Leopold Staff.

Wings of an Angel

“Requiem For An Anonymous Genius (The Breath Of Life, Carnal Annihilation And Miraculous Resurrection Of The Job Of Art)”

“This exceptional album blends world music, hip-hop. electronica, and new age into a full package of sound experiences guaranteed to alter your mind. The artist manages to combine jazz with middle eastern sounds in an album that celebrates both. I do not think I’ve heard anyone do this as successfully since Pharoah Sanders. While often sounding dark and atmospheric. it maintain a spiritual essence that stays with you long after the last track. This unique listening experience is bought to you by the Paralucid netlabel…””Wings of an Angel’s music explores deepness and darkness in a mystic mood. Nobody on earth does the same music as he does…”

“Screaming Silence: The Concept Of Pain”

“I gotta say this… Wings of an Angel – if I had to predict the future of music, I would say listen to ANY of your stuff… Your sound art is so advanced and beyond what we hear in these days & times. You should put an expiration date on your music: Will be good for the next 200 years. It’s really that advanced!”

Wings of an Angel – Satsangs In The Dark

Wings of an Angel – Satsangs In The Dark
[PL012]

Wings of an Angel

“Satsangs In The Dark”

‘Satsangs In The Dark’ brings together the majestic black splendor of sound, seditious spoken-word and thought-provoking poetry – to create a transcendental mind and life altering experience. Satsang (in Sanskrit, sat = true, sanga = company) is an Indian philosophy that involves (1) the company of the “highest truth,” (2) the company of a guru, or (3) company with an assembly of persons who listen to, talk about, and assimilate the truth. This typically involves listening to or reading texts, reflecting on, discussing and assimilating their meaning, meditating on the source of these words, and bringing their meaning into one’s daily life. This project marks an inspiring step further unto the most dangerous terrains and inner-landscapes of one’s obscure existential reflections…

Needless to say that ‘Satsangs In The Dark’ is a paradoxical title. As an experienced and highly passionate critical thinker, my humble words of wisdom to y’all are: Don’t trust gurus, artists, psychologists, professors and others who (manipulatively) guide you how to (supposedly) live and conduct your life. Execute your critical instincts and don’t believe the hype. Romanticism is alluring – but it rarely holds any sustainable promises. Beware of those claiming to represent The Truth or any so-called Truths. Don’t turn off your defenses and DO NOT fall in the trap of those calling you to be less judgmental and (allegedly) open to new experiences. People tend to have a hot spot for charisma and sugar-coated nonsense – let that be known.

‘Satsangs In The Dark’ is all about late night journeys to non-specific destinations, in the context of a perfectly equal intellectual/emotional relationship. ‘Satsangs In The Dark’ is all about crossbreeding information and mutual sharing of knowledge via dialogue. ‘Satsangs In The Dark’ is all about promoting intelligent nonconformism and iconoclasm. ‘Satsangs In The Dark’ is all about providing a valid and well-founded alternative to the herd, sheeple and bourgeois mentalities. ‘Satsangs In The Dark’ is all about a sound transformation of consciousness. Here and now.

Last but not least, there’s a ridiculous New Age driven fashion to dismiss thinking as a whole and promote emotional experiences that are highly regarded and considered to be much more authentic. Give me a break… I have three words for you: Cogito ergo sum.

Medo’s Little Trap

“Medicine Sound”

A medicine sound against humanity that screams and shouts.
A small work which is like a whisper, re-discovering the basic things to say.
A delicate work, between electro-pop, acoustic ballads and symphonic bewilderment.

Massimo Ruberti

“Autour de la Lune”

Massimo Ruberti is back to present again his work «Autour de la Lune» in the occasion of a short film (about twenty minutes, released once again by the netlabel Elpamusic), to tell the story of three astronauts and their journey to the Moon.

The small film consists of three video clips composed of static animation and shadow theater. The exciting sequences of images is perfectly accompanied by the music. The electronic sounds are taken from the record «Autour de la Lune» (Elpa57). The drawings are of the American artist David Brunell Brutman while the theater has been designed and animated by Massimo Ruberti. Everything is inspired by the homonymous book of Jules Verne ‘»Around the Moon», where three astronauts try to reach the moon, shot from a huge cannon aboard a bullet-shaped starship.
