Inner Struggle & I.M.M.U.R.E. – «Split»

October 10, 2009

Inner Struggle & I.M.M.U.R.E. - «Split»Cat.# … DNA 64
Release Date … 10.10.2009
Genre … Drone Ambient, Industrial
Type … FLAC Lossless

Two Russian ambient project from DNA Production catalogue unite in their collaborative effort to create this split release. Alexey Oleinikov as I.M.M.U.R.E. and Seclorum with his new project Inner Struggle, both of them contribute a track to the album.

Inner Struggle’s track called «Blackout» is full of dark and calm drone ambient with deep and evenly breathing devoid of peaks in sound.

And «Time To Pretend», I.M.M.U.R.E. contribution, has a great difference. Very nervous and disquiet, it’s similar to early I.M.M.U.R.E. works. Rough and angular composition made of tense ambient layers, looped noise fragments and cold synthetic melodies rise gradually and develop in almost 20-minute track.

Graphic design is by Seclorum.

Tracklisting:

  1. Inner Struggle – Blackout (10:19)
  2. I.M.M.U.R.E. – Time To Pretend (18:54)

Coph’antae Tryr & 581С – «Obscure Action»

September 20, 2009

Coph'antae Tryr & 581С - «Obscure Action»Cat.# … DNA 62
Release Date … 20.09.2009
Genre … Noise, Drone Ambient
Type … FLAC Lossless

This collaborative work between two Russian industrial artists consists of six diverse pieces – deep, primitive and dark.

All these tracks are composed on basis of heavy and a bit noisy dark ambient layers saturated with raw and hollow industrial rumble. And on this basis abstract noise associations create unique constructions – somewhere rare, somewhere intensive, looped or unstructured.

Prevailing in the first half, noise inclusions reach the highest mark at short interlude called «THJHJHGI2». Then it instantly makes way for droning raw soundscapes occasionally appearing as faint minor sounds while hollow dark ambient layers seem to fill whole world around.

Artworks for the release are made by Vitaly Maklakov.

Tracklisting:

  1. Coph’antae Tryr & 581С – VRNMRNRLA (08:40)
  2. Coph’antae Tryr & 581С – MSBLGAAA (08:11)
  3. Coph’antae Tryr & 581С – THJHJHGI2 (02:46)
  4. Coph’antae Tryr & 581С – HSBHSHOU (06:01)
  5. Coph’antae Tryr & 581С – WDTRCTLNG (05:26)

I.M.M.U.R.E. – «Somnia»

August 30, 2009

I.M.M.U.R.E. - «Somnia»Cat.# … DNA 60
Release Date … 30.08.2009
Genre … Dark Ambient, Drone Ambient
Type … FLAC Lossless

I.M.M.U.R.E., who contributed a lot to DNA Production catalogue in the past, now presents a new considerable work with clear composition and idea. This album called «Somnia», a Latin equivalent for English «dreams», is a compressed flow of dream essences expressed in sound. Against all expectations, it’s not calm and fuzzy soundscape but intense and droning ambient layer on background with dense build on «natural» sounds layer in front. Throughout all 43-minute piece minimal and powerful background layer is continually competing with «natural» sounds while clear light consonances hover over all.

Emotional peak of the piece is in the beggining of last third when Troum-like dry pulsations raise and begin to support «natural» sounds layer harmoniously interlacing and painting unusual pictures of dreaming subconsciousness. And in the end of «Somnia» is the same haze of «natural» sounds floating above droning background.

Raspad Atoma – «Melophobia»

April 22, 2009

Raspad Atoma - «Melophobia»Cat.# … DNA 46
Release Date … 22.04.2009
Genre … Drone Ambient, Field Recordings
Type … FLAC Lossless

«…chaotic drone and rumble of the external raving world is only volume of absolute silence increased a thousand times…»

Powerful low frequency drone, considered chaos of ambient layers, slow composition progress and permanent tension – Raspad Atoma is back.

This Russian drone musician attracts attention with his new work. Being an adherent of deep low frequency drone ambient, Knell discovers new (or another?) ways to develop his creativity. He uses an advanced multilayer composition, intensively works with various sounds, noises, drones and field recordings.

«Melophobia» is a long ambient piece. It’s an instrument that helps author to disjoin listener’s consciousness and the world around. It’s an imperceptible but persistent process when hundreds of spirals wrap listener around and every spiral is full of caught drones, melodies, noises. It pulses, sounds and interweaves creating new world around. «Melophobia» looks like deepest sleep when habitual frame of reference is lost and consciousness is trying to realize discovered space as a dark and isolated place, a territory of loneliness.

Created at home studio summer 2008 – winter 2009 specially for DNA Production.
All sounds, noises, drones, field recordings, programming and mastering, artworks by Knell.
